In my motherland people kneel before wells.

In my motherland people pray to the crosses of flying birds.

A bone is a key to my people.

Among my people, only the dead have human faces.

  • Ἓκτη Ἱσταμένου, VI day
    From today’s sunset, it is the sixth of Maimakterion.
    It is sacred to Artemis as the symbolic day of Her birthday.
    It is also a very auspicious day (defeat of the giants).
    It is not a good day for marriages nor for procreation.

    “He (Hesiod) wants the sixth day to be inappropriate to the generation of girls, no matter that it is sacred to Artemis as the Goddess’ birthday . So She was born before Apollo, in order to witness the birth of Her brother. It will not be conveniently sacred to the birth of the Goddess, the first sixth day, which is perfect…? Artemis then, that is the one who completes the fetuses and declares the natural principles which govern the matter, it is quite natural that has been generated, according to the myth, on the sixth day. It is equally natural that this day is not suitable for the generation of girls, this Goddess in fact dominates the splendor of the Moon, is a virgin and does not want to generate.”

    (Artemis of Gabii. Roman copy of the reign of Tiberius (14-37 CE) after a Greek original traditionnally attributed to Praxiteles. Found in 1792 by Gavin Hamilton at Gabii, Italy, now in the Louvre…)
