Greenman Eucharist

[EverChanging]

I thought this was a beautiful ceremony. Very interesting too as I could see the pattern and to some degree the cadence of the Anglican liturgy with which I'm familiar. Her theology behind the Green Man was very interesting.

This is beautiful. Thank you for sharing. I dont know anything about the green man. Sounds like a good convo (I like youe signature; that should be posted on my forhead in these forums)

It's good to see some Celtic Myth turn up.

The video is a delightful tribute to the famed, "Green Man".

The Green Man was a gag as far as I knew though. Someone you may look at for whilst intoxicated, like looking for a Fairy or Leprechaun on Absinthe.

I didn't know Green Man was a dedicated part of Irish/Celtic myth.

Ultimately, I would love to see something like this in Gaelic which would be a treat.

I was under the impression that the Green Man was not a spirit or entity historically but has grown up as a modern interpretation of some ancient images. I'm not sure, though.

It would be cool to see it in another language. In my ceremonial offerings I incorporate some prayers in other ancient languages -- Greek, Aramaic, and Latin -- along with sacral English. It really brings home the point that this is something special.

Greenmen were common features on Churches long ago - rotten old Oliver Cromwell chipped 'em all to bits in the 17th century.

Yep. Pentacles are also still on some old church architecture. Mermaids also used to feature on church furniture.

I love all of that stuff. The older Churches are full of pagan imagery.

This is beautiful, and very interesting.

Interesting.

I've always thought of the Green Man as a... "wood-wight" (to coin a new term on the spot, I guess), but otherwise very enigmatic beyond being some kind of "protector", or perhaps even a "King", of woodlands. I'm not so sure I'd personally give homage to the Green Man anywhere except a Hallowed Grove, though, as it seems kinda disrespectful to worship such a being in a house.

One of Arthurs knights, the Green Knight was often seen to be a greenman. There is a link with mythical wildmen also.
