Gemini, the zodiac sign of duality. Always in mutation, contestation, inquisition for wanting to know: whether it be spirituality, society and values. Inquisition of self and others.

Noticed this in a window as I was walking by, and I just had to have it.

Roleplay Scene in Burgundy in Blood

 

Sir Gabriel Lacroix - Retired character

 

I'm out on a new road in search for a land with no name

And I never looked back cause I'm walking through sunshine and rain

I'm a man who has lived in the tombs and who's broken the chain

Amen

I was blind and now I see

What I've got is not for me

And I know, it's time to go

I've been used

And I've been played

I've been spied on and betrayed

And I know, it's time to go

Watch out

I feel the pain

Watch out

I'm alive again

The past is gone for good, it's time to say:

Amen

Common Whitethroat

Checking me out from the hedgerow

Seems to be a Whitethroat year with lots of them in all the bushes and hedgerows wherever i wander

San Juan de Gaztelugatxe

  

The church on top of the island is dedicated to John the Baptist. Over the centuries the church has burned down and been rebuilt several times. It is believed that the first hermitage that existed here was erected in the 9th century. In the 12th century, it became a convent. However, two centuries later, the friars abandoned it taking with them everything of value.

 

In 1596, San Juan de Gaztelugatxe was attacked again, this time by Sir Francis Drake and his corsairs. They looted everything they found and killed the hermit that was living there by throwing him off a cliff to the rocks and water below.

 

San Juan de Gaztelugatxe also played a role, albeit small, during the Spanish Inquisition. Witches and their ritualistic meetings known as Akelarre in Basque, make up a part of the Basque mythology. For this reason, the Catholic Church focused much of its time during the inquisition hunting for witches in the region. Several accounts seem to indicate that many of the accused were locked up in the caves of San Juan de Gaztelugatxe.

 

The church deteriorated over time and it was eventually demolished in 1886 and then rebuilt from scratch. Unfortunately, during the demolition process, all of the artifacts found in the ground, such as coins and cannon balls, were thrown to the sea.
