Whites Castle tower house was built in 1417 in County Kildare by Sir John Talbot, Viceroy of Ireland, to protect the Cromaboo Bridge over the River Barrow and the inhabitants of the Pale. On the right of the doorway is the Earl of Kildare's coat of arms, signifying the Earl's ownership of the castle in former days. It is now a private residence.
AMSTERDAM LIGHT FESTIVAL - In the old days, blowing dandelion seeds into the air was also done as a superstitious act: the number of seeds that remained signified the number of years you had to wait to get married, how many children you would have with your loved one, or how many years you still had to live. But before we can take a look in the future, we have to wait a little longer for spring.

Under a still glum sky I went to the nature reserve De Hoge Dijk between Amsterdam and Abcoude for a breather. Soon I found myself (and Olymp) in De Ruige Hof (=rough garden), a nicely maintained ecological park with lots of ditches and canals. A bit a spring green here and there; even some early wildflowers.
Here's Lungwort, Pulmonaria officinalis. It is said - from the Middle Ages onward - that those white spots on the foliage signify the Virgin's tears on Good Friday... Lungwort flourishes in the weeks around Easter.
Windmills have been a feature of Brill since at least the 13th century. Two fields adjacent to the Thame road are named Milldene and Millpiece, signifying connections with the earliest siting of windmills in Brill around 1250.
The present windmill on Brill Common was probably erected sometime in the 1680s. Although not quite the oldest windmill in England, it is one of the best preserved of the dozen or so 17th century 'post-mills' still standing. (Pitstone Windmill, also in Buckinghamshire, was built in 1627 and is believed to be the oldest windmill in Britain.) A post-mill is a mill in which the whole structure revolves around a central post in order to face the wind.
When Brill windmill last operated it was working two sets of stones; a pair of French burr stones for milling wheat, and a pair of peak stones (Derbyshire millstone grit) for milling barley. When operative, the mill had four sails, each 27 feet (9m) long and 5 feet (1.5m) wide. Since construction, the mill has probably been operated by only six millers.
Brill's last miller was Mr. Albert Nixey. Mr. Nixey last milled flour in 1919, but continued to grind barley for cattle food for a further four years. The new roller mills (the first opening in Glasgow in 1872) could produce 7,000lbs (about 3,200kgs) of bread flour per man hour, compared to 180lbs (81kgs) produced by a windmill such as that in Brill.

Sunsets have much meaning. They signify endings, change, and transformation and remind us that change is part of life and everything has an end.
Cirrocumulus is one of the three main genus-types of high-altitude tropospheric clouds, the other two being cirrus and cirrostratus. They usually occur at an altitude of 5 kilometres to 12 kilometres. Like lower altitude cumuliform and stratocumuliform clouds, cirrocumulus signifies convection. Unlike other high-altitude-tropospheric clouds like cirrus and cirrostratus, cirrocumulus includes a small amount of liquid water droplets, although these are in a supercooled state. Ice crystals are the predominant component, and typically, the ice crystals cause the supercooled water drops in the cloud to rapidly freeze, transforming the cirrocumulus into cirrostratus. This process can also produce precipitation in the form of a virga consisting of ice or snow. Thus cirrocumulus clouds are usually short-lived. They usually only form as part of a short-lived transitional phase within an area of cirrus clouds and can also form briefly as a result of the breaking up of part of a cumulonimbus anvil. Properly, the term cirrocumulus refers to each cloud, but is typically also used to refer to an entire patch of cirrocumulus. When used in this way, each cirrocumulus element is referred to as a 'cloudlet'. 21758

These disheveled trees reminded me of the pictures (is.gd/TseCqF) of Bernie Sanders with unkempt hair. As a lighthearted homage to Bernie's campaign for the Democratic Party's nomination of its 2016 US Presidential candidate, I tagged the pictures of these trees as "FeelTheBern," the hash tag that signifies the movement that the campaign inspired.

Some of you may have heard of the famous Cape Breton Celtic band called the Barra MacNeils without knowing what the name actually signifies. Historically the MacNeil’s were the chief clan of the Isle of Barra a Western Scottish Island that saw a lot of its population immigrate to other British colonies during the 17th and 18th centuries including PEI. St. Patrick's the grand dame captured here is a far cry from the log structure that the first 20+ families from Barra erected here in 1790, it also has the distinction of being the first church in Canada to be dedicated to St Patrick.

When I visited this woodland a week before, the bluebells were well on their way to their best but there was little else in the forest to signify Spring. A week later and I was amazed by how much spring had sprung into life, especially in the canopy and lower branches.

Ataraxia (Ἀταραξία "tranquility") is a Greek term used by Pyrrho and Epicurus for a lucid state, characterized by freedom from worry or any other preoccupation.
For the Epicureans, ataraxia was synonymous with the only true happiness possible for a person.
It signifies the state of robust tranquility that derives from eschewing faith in an afterlife, not fearing the gods because they are distant and unconcerned with us, avoiding politics and vexatious people, surrounding oneself with trustworthy and affectionate friends and, most importantly, being an affectionate, virtuous person, worthy of trust.
Cu Chulainn's lament
treat yourself: the great Davy Spillane on the Uilleann pipes
The name is Mór-Ríoghain in Modern Irish. It has been translated as "great queen", "phantom queen" or "mare queen". The Morrígan is mainly associated with war and fate, especially with foretelling doom, death or victory in battle. She often took the form of a raven during battle.
It is said she alighted on the shoulder of the great warrior Cuchulainn on the battlefield signifying his death. She had also previously appeared to him as an old woman washing clothes on the banks of the river. He knew that this was a portent of his approaching fate.
On the Ellon roundabout in Aberdeenshire by the Ythan River Bridge there is a lovely galvanised steel mesh statue sculpture of an otter.
The 10 feet tall statue was designed and created by sculptor Andy Scott in Glasgow.
An otter was chosen to signify the relationship between Ellon and the River Ythan which is home to many otters.
The concept is over two thousand years old and is referenced in the New Testament as established wisdom that prevailed among the Jews of the Second Temple Period by Jesus in Matthew 16:2-3. If the morning skies are of an orange red glow it signifies a high pressure air mass with stable air trapping particles like dust which scatters the suns blue light. This high pressure is moving towards the east and a low pressure system moves in from the west.
Another variation is....Red sky at night, sailors' delight. Red sky at morning, sailors' warning.
Hello Everyone!
Red is cheerful and bright, at least that's what I always thought about red. Beginning Nov. 12, 2020 Manitoba will be on full lockdown, the first Canadian Province to order another second full lockdown since the first one in March. Manitoba has been listed as Red which is considered Critical, the highest level on our Pandemic Response System. Green signifies Limited Risk of Transmission. After having the lowest rate of transmission during the summer, Manitoba now has the highest rate of transmission of Covid-19 in Canada with Winnipeg being the hotspot which is where I live. I just hope that everybody can do their part to get the numbers down. "Think Green" my fellow Manitobans and Canadians! We'll get this under control if everybody does their part! Please be safe! Keep well and hang in there!
Thanks so much for your supportive comments and your views! Always wonderful to hear from you! Have a terrific day!

The delicate flowers and foliage of Wild Chervil delight the heart even in a Cold Spring. 'Chervil' is said to go back on two Greek words signifying something like 'foliage delight'. Indeed, the fine-structured leaves and umbelliferous collections of tiny flowers are quite beautiful close-by and splendid fields make Spring bright and happy.
Small and delicate 22-Spot Ladybird likes to forage for Mildew on this and other umbrella flowers.
"Happiness is the state of mind", so true
Pain is indeed the jouney the mind takes,
Through rough roads of sorrow and sufferings
Awaiting one royal tear of highest achievement
Unique that you are in God's creation !
May this November that got you through the tumultuous journey,
year long,
Bring to you, your utmost prized possession ,
"Happiness is the state of mind" so true.

Stone on the far shore is Inukshuk
Inukshuk - is a stone landmark used as a milestone or directional marker by the Inuit of the Canadian Arctic. Inuksuit differ from some cairns in significance. The Arctic Circle, dominated by permafrost, has few natural landmarks and thus the inuksuk was central to navigation across the barren tundra.
Inuksuit vary in shape and size, and perform a diverse array of tasks. It is a symbol with deep roots in the Inuit culture, a directional marker that signifies safety, hope and friendship.

I took this a few days ago, when I noticed we had a clear blue sky, finally, no chemtrails for a change, the way the sun light caught through what's left of the seed pods I snapped off a few. The evening temperatures now are noticeably getting cooler, so I guess that signifies the beginning of the end for Summer.
And plus you can tell it's going to be Halloween soon as the Christmas decorations are appearing in stores! ;)

The Golden Temple Amritsar India (Sri Harmandir Sahib Amritsar) has a unique Sikh architecture. Built at a level lower than the surrounding land level, The Gurudwara teaches the lesson of egalitarianism and humility. The four entrances of this holy shrine from all four directions, signify that people belonging to every walk of life are equally welcome.
The Golden Temple Amritsar India is not only a central religious place of the Sikhs, but also a symbol of human brotherhood and equality. Everybody, irrespective of cast, creed or race can seek spiritual solace and religious fulfilment without any hindrance. It also represents the distinct identity, glory and heritage of the Sikhs.
The name of the city derives from the name of the pool around the Golden Temple (aka Harmandir Sahib) and means "holy pool of nectar". It is the spiritual and cultural center of the Sikh religion, and they are rightfully very proud of the city and their very beautiful and unique Gurdwara (place of worship).
Visitors to the Golden Temple must remove their shoes and cover their heads before entering the temple.

Interestingly, the feathers around the beak are drawn forward signifying a relaxed state. A cockatoo is any of the 21 parrot species belonging to the family Cacatuidae, the only family in the superfamily Cacatuoidea. Along with the Psittacoidea (true parrots) and the Strigopoidea (large New Zealand parrots), they make up the order Psittaciformes. The family has a mainly Australasian distribution, ranging from the Philippines and the eastern Indonesian islands of Wallacea to New Guinea, the Solomon Islands and Australia. Cockatoos are recognisable by the prominent crests and curved bills. Their plumage is generally less colourful than that of other parrots, being mainly white, grey or black and often with coloured features in the crest, cheeks or tail. On average they are larger than other parrots; however, the cockatiel, the smallest cockatoo species, is a small bird. Cockatoos prefer to eat seeds, tubers, corms, fruit, flowers and insects. They often feed in large flocks, particularly when ground-feeding. Cockatoos are monogamous and nest in tree hollows. Some cockatoo species have been adversely affected by habitat loss, particularly from a shortage of suitable nesting hollows after large mature trees are cleared; conversely, some species have adapted well to human changes and are considered agricultural pests. 62529

February's full moon is also known as the snow moon. Each month, the full moon carries a different name signifying what is most associated with that time. This is because centuries ago, lunar months were associated with the changing seasons rather than the solar year.
Native Americans and Europeans gave February the "snow moon" title because it was the month associated with heavy snowfall, according to The Old Farmer's Almanac.
It is also rare to see the snowy mountains in the Bay Area . Thank you for stopping by!!

Ocean Terminal (Chinese: 海運大廈) is a cruise terminal and shopping centre located on Canton Road in Tsim Sha Tsui, Hong Kong.
The location of Ocean Terminal was once a wharf pier (Kowloon Star Ferry Pier, Kowloon Wharf and Godown) on the west shore of Tsim Sha Tsui. Rebuilt and enlarged for use as a cruise terminal, it also served as a multi-story shopping centre. Ocean Terminal opened on 22 March 1966, signifying the increasing wealth of Hong Kong. Costing HK$70 million, its 112 shops made it "the largest shopping centre" in Hong Kong.
It was re-branded together with nearby buildings of the Wharf as Harbour City. Ocean Terminal is now owned by The Wharf (Holdings) Limited.

Water is pure and signifies life.
Where is your life going?
Is your water in a waterfall, dropping, and getting worse?
Or is it filling your glass, overflowing, and getting better?
Is your water still there?
Not evaporating?
Being dried up by the sun?
Are you losing time?
Do you watch how your water flows?
How is your life?
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day
To the last syllable of recorded time,
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing."
from that Scottish play, written by You Know Who.
Sometimes it is really hard to find and say things that signify something, anything

The temple features 24 (12 pairs) wheels representing the wheels of Lord Surya's sun chariot. The 12 wheels signify the 12 months of the year and the 8 spokes represent the 8 prahars or time divisions of the day. The wheels bear a resemblance to the wheels of the chariot of the sun. They are put in such a way that one can calculate the time through the shadow that is cast on the spoke of the wheels.
