about

Offering for Samhain MMXV.

The story of a widow called Agata Pekantyär is very instructive. Agata worked a sizeable farm in Ulvila. Like most of those accused of witchcraft and vidskepelse [benevolent magic], but contrary to some modern popular beliefs, she was neihter old nor poor. She was linked to some of the cases already described. She appeared as a witness in the aforementioned case of defamation, for example, and the aunt of the man supposedly killed by Heikki Yrjönpoika Janckari and Risto Olavipoinka had previously accused Agata of vidskepelse. The web of accusations and counter-accusations at this period obviously trapped a significant portion of the parish. Agata found herself prosecuted for 'benevolent' magic in 1675 and 1676, and on both occasions she was merely sentenced to pay fines. Ten years later she was accused of flying to Blåkulla, a famous witches' meeting place where extraordinary sabbaths occurred, and also charged once again for benevolent magic. The jury considered the accusation concerning Agata's flight to Blåkulla less than reliable, and it was remarked that the witness who made the allegation was prone to drinking too much. Some of the other accusations took a little longer to refute, but refuted they were and she was finally acquitted. At the end of the 1690s a fourth accusation about her activities was aired but never came to court, although the rumour was mentioned in a separate trial to clear the reputation of another alleged witch.

Serpents In The Sky
by Njiqahdda

Njiqahdda is so full of inspiration and true knowledge seekers. Serpents in the Sky is superb. The creativity seems endless, the blend of styles and themes. Crushing riffs and melodic leads abound. Crown of Asteria

Blood of the Black Owl
by Blood of the Black Owl

Transcending into realms long forgotten. This release is shrouded in an intangible force , a primordial effluence devoid of human touch. Thrumming with the ichor of trees. Crown of Asteria
