The Meaning Of The Newgrange Spiral

in #newgrange7 years ago (edited)

The newgrange spiral is an inscribed symbol found in newgrange Ireland, which is a giant tomb that is thousands of years old. Here is a picture of the spiral.

This is likely a maritime symbol representing the coming, going, and returning of ocean waves as they crash upon the shore. This symbol was also found in Malta upon one of their ancient water jugs.

This symbol was likely put on a tomb to represent the idea of reincarnation, the notion that though this person is entombed in newgrange they will come back again as surely as the water returns to shore after having crashed upon the shore. According to Julius Caesar, and other Roman authors, The Druids taught that the soul would reincarnate after the passing of the physical body.

The swastika, sometimes called a fylfot, has been found on urns in England. The swastika represents the cyclical nature of time just as the newgrange spiral does. The four legs of the swastika represent the movement of the big dipper around the north star. The swastika therefore represents the four seasons and the fullness of time. If it is not put on urns to represent the belief that the soul will reincarnate it may be put on to express the wish that the person be remembered forever.

Here is a swastika upon an ogham standing stone

The ogham language was written vertically from bottom to top. This represents the idea that words and verses are like plants that grow out of people. A collection of poems is called an anthology and an anthology literally means in terms of its etymology a "garden of verses".

Ogham was not only a script used for writing but it was also a script that could be used for communicating by way of hand signals.

I came across the idea that the newgrange spiral represented ocean waves after drawing the image of it on a piece of paper and writing on the paper Eireann eagna(Ireland wisdom in the Irish language) using ogham script and then I held the paper in my hand while laying down. After that I got up and sat outside on a lawn chair and then thought about how the newgrange triple spiral looked like ocean waves.

After that I thought about how newgrange was a tomb and how the triple spiral looks like the coming, going, and returning of ocean waves as they crash upon the shore and how this could be a reincarnation symbol. The idea it is a reincarnation symbol is supported by the the fact that more than one Roman author claimed the druids believed in reincarnation

ADDENDUM

I AM NOT A WHITE NATIONALIST

I am a culturalist. I believe culture, not race, is what defines a person. I do recognize that there is a culture among many blacks that is counter-productive to a civilized society. And so in a sense you could say that I am not opposed to racial awareness, however I do think that racial awareness should be subordinated to a cultural worldview. Some black people are fine upstanding members of western civilization who have contributed greatly and are as much a part of the west as anyone else. Western civilization is a culture not a race.

The cultural definition of self is preferable rather than a racial definition within a civilization because a cultural definition of self is based upon lore, it is based upon writing, and it is based upon music. Culture is based upon speech. A cultural definition of self is rooted in the products of civilization and it is based upon the ability of culture to affect biology. A cultural definition of self recognizes the primacy of the mind and the word over the biological body. Mind over matter.

I choose not to place any sort of strict definition upon what western culture is, just that it exists in the air in the form of fields of consciousness that are reproduced by way of speech and culture. I do not define The Western World racially though.

One thing that has especially convinced me not to adopt a racial worldview is the fact that the white race seems to have wed itself to the psychiatric system, which is a system that gives people brain damaging medications in the name of mental health. This seems rather insane, but it seems like an expression of some sort of castration instinct that is manifesting itself in the white race, considering that psychiatry is the white race mentally castrating itself. But this castration instinct is also being expressed among the white race in the form of the transgender movement and the neutering of dogs and other pets. Psychiatry, neutering animals, and transgenderism are all forms of castration. The white race seems addicted to castrating itself.

This castration instinct is so problematic that a dog who I cared for was neutered against my wishes due to the conspiring of a veterinarian and a woman with whom I share custody of the dog with. Both white. It was actually this event that was the decisive turning point in me questioning the mentality of people in the white community, I started to wonder if black people were right about white people being crazy. After this happened other things started to dawn on me. I started to realize that my mothers death due to alcoholism was not due to alcoholism per se but rather it was due to psychiatrists prescribing her drugs which sent her on a downward spiral of drug dependency and supplementation of the psychiatric drugs with alcohol. And in a sense the psychiatric establishment is a testament to certain problems in the culture of white people. I came to blame psychiatry for her death and noted that psychiatry was part of white culture.

Right now I am reminded of a toxic cycle within North American culture. The cycle is: the old prey upon the young and when the old become elderly those who were preyed upon abandon the elderly to foreign nurses in nursing homes instead of caring for them. It is insane for the old to prey upon the young because the youth are the ones who grow into the ones who will be taking care of the old when the old become elderly.

I have come around to believing the black proverb that "white people are crazy". I am against anti-white hate speech but I am not a white nationalist. I am a culturalist and not a racialist. An ethnic group is ultimately a field of consciousness that is based on sound vibration.
