mr sheridan, something really bad is going around here. it started with me and thankfully with your help, im better. but now, something has gone after my friend. doctors cant explain it. hear me out. she recieved a doll from who she thought was her mother. when she began to develop rashes (on her hands) her mother asked her “has someome given you something?” to which she replied about the doll. her mother was terrified at this point. her mother never gave her the doll. it was something or someone else. please if you could get back to me about this, or DM on twitter (just recently followed and i have the same avi) that would be great. this is all very scary for all of us
Here in 'this' pagan part of Cornwall... Sometimes when the house will not rest, or the hearth spirit is rowdy... They can be bound by making an image of them and placing it in a lobby. Or under the house. Although when I look at this and 'LOOK'... I see it floating in water ?
That looks like it's a hare/rabbit head....... Which would stand to reason cus that's what they believed witches could turn into hares..... Like a familiar
In Clare there is still huge superstition around ringforts. Most farmers here will never interfere with ringforts on thier land, they will never cut timber in a ringfort. Above any other structure on the landscape, the ringfort has held on to this ancient superstition. I wonder what is the root of this powerful and enduring folkloric superstition. My feeling is that if the ringfort is feared now, it must have been venerated in ancient times. Perhaps the christians demonised this space, as it may have been a site of veneration in the old religion...
I went to the witchcraft museum to do a seminar on Folklore in Magick and these kinds of 'superstition and magick' things hidden in rafters etc. Is immense.. this is so amazing, love these kinds of things. #hailourfolk #tradition
Piseogs are a strange aspect in Irish culture as most historical and folkloric records show it to be a taboo in culture and have to do with cursing, however, it isn't always bad. Piseog has a more specific meaning of superstition because it encompasses everything from holy folk prayers, to cursing, to curing, to bringing good and bad. I wouldn't consider it witchcraft due to how broad it is but they can be used for cursing such as with fairy darts or fairy eggs, or for good in terms of Irish cures, wards against spirits, and to bring goodness sir example Saint Brigid's cross is a piseog and is made and given to bring friendship and goodness upon a household. Moreover barley knoys that sometimes are made were used for the same thing. However most examples from the national folklore archive of Ireland show it to be negative and tabboo and used to steal milk or butter or curse fields etc.
Around 1974 I had a very similar wooden statue that my then boyfriend bought me from a gift shop. It was African, stood about a foot tall , had the coils which tribes use to elongate their necks and he held a spear.
I live on a street in Drogheda on a a street called John street old .when they were renewing the houses to turn into flats they found a a pagan fertility statue so they say .It is in Millmount museum and it is call shelia beach small Shelia but I do know the people who found it did not want it in house.it is rock carving of women old with hood hold a small child will try to get you picture Shelia beag
The high "top hat" reminds me of the Egyptian/Pharoanic wardrobe - they're referred to as "plumes". That is one scary "doll"!!!!! yikes.....................cheers
Make a witches bottle. Take a smallish green glass bottle, fill it with pins, nails, pointy things and top it up with your own urine. Seal it and bury it under or near your home's entrance or threshold, and then forget about it. Any curses will return to the sender. Now you're good to go! 🙂
Looks like a voodoo doll or poppet to me. I think lots of the Pilgrims that came to America were witches running from persecution. I think its female and she wearing a hat with tall feathers so may have been a wealthy woman who attracted the anger or jealousy of a less fortunate woman. The hat reminds of those riding hats with the high crown and brim and feathers.
Genuine African socalled voodoo dolls always represent the maker and all contain a metal needle inserted as a transmitter receiver to the tree it was carved from. If there was one in this doll someone would have seen it. I agree with your opinion.
+OpenSourceOccultTV an endocrinologist is someone who specialises in biology and illness, usually to do with the blood. Do you mean ethnologist, something else or am I completely missing something? Just interested.
Doesn't look african to me. It looks like what you said, a first timer who did their best, especially if it is a soft wood. The wire looks more neat, not like an angry person wrapped it to simulate strangling. If it was their first time making a doll, they made a large one, and if they didn't really work metal, they just used spring steel, which is kind of a pain in the ass. Try wrapping the thin spring of a school notebook neat like that. It doesn't look all that evil to me, or even creepy. Kind of plain and obscure in proportions. Reminds me of some of the Scandinavian totems and such. Though the keep from talking thing may have some substance, since there is no mouth, but elongated ears and even a nose. The eyes seem to be the most detailed, but neutral in a way. This detail could be because, through the carving the bulk of the statue, the person had some practice and the eyes were done last. Odd, could be a beginner trying to work his/her way up to a new hobby. The wire makes the whole thing very odd, and without it, this item would probably not have any real attention, just an old whittler's early attempt. Has anyone entertained the possibility that the statue was made by one person and then repurposed by someone else? I have plenty of stuff in my house I mangled, painted and dressed up that I did not make. A common thing for witchcraft would be for someone to make a doll in secret out of easily worked materials like cloth, stuffing, wax or even a potato. Would want anyone knowing what you were up to. The way the wire is wrapped neat, the size and the rather neutral details makes me wonder, was the purpose malevolent?
Oh, and I do not agree that this photograph is superb, there is too much shadow for studying. Now, for a magazine article covering the story, yes. But that shadow over the left (our right looking at it) can't let us see the detail of the eye. Do they both look closely the same, or are they, how you would say, wonky? If everything is in odd proportions, but the eyes are fairly even, same slant, size, form placement, etc. It could mean that the person did have some skill, may have done it in haste, or had a preference for this type of form (as in how you can tell different cartoonist's art work apart).
Waterways predate overland routes by millenia. The sea was never a barrier, it's why everything Irish has a tinge of the Moroccan or vice versa. Pope Innocenti VII declared war on all black kingdoms on the advent of gun boat diplomacy 1491. Britain & Ireland were on the list. Atlantean culture had little to do with Germans & Scythians. A clue is in the language. It's a simile of North African semitic & not indo european at all. Filigree art, music & dance too. Were a branch of Amazigh & not that curse word celt.
No way. Mayan is my thing. Even had a weird flashback /past life thing when visitin Chichen Itza, and knew the entire city 🌃 layout. Freaked my ex out. The past 10 years I’ve been close to a Nagual (Mayan shaman). It’s not Maya❤️ Or Aztec or anything similar

please if you could get back to me about this, or DM on twitter (just recently followed and i have the same avi)
that would be great. this is all very scary for all of us
Thanks Thomas. Would love to hear more about this tradition of piseogs in Ireland. Fascinating topic.
It looks a bit like it's wearing a bishop's mitre.
thats in my house right now

It looks kind of some sort of sub aquatic type creature the head is kind of fish like ! Happy to hear your back on form mate I'm loving your work
I live in mallow lol

Don't they usually bury or hide rotten meat on the property when performing a pisseog?
Maby it's some sort of Poppet or Fetesh doll. Looks like someone tried to cast a spell with it.
Looks like the Pope.

I think these kinda dolls should be put back and forgotten,. Thanks Thomas you sound yourself today! Iechyd da
I agree, my friend in Australia found stuff in an attic that was 200 years old, once the roof was redone they put it back.
Morrigan Keltica it's not exactly a work of art or stunning to look at so yeh put it back it won't be mist😊
@@mynyddyquartzite2034 I think it's amazing and I'd love to see it in real life lol
Morrigan Keltica look but don't touch then lol 😉
its in my house right now.....
Where it was found, seems to be the mystery, maybe more investigation into the house and surrounding area?
i can tell you its in my house?
I saw also on my visual left elbow region another face.
I live on a street in Drogheda on a a street called John street old .when they were renewing the houses to turn into flats they found a a pagan fertility statue so they say .It is in Millmount museum and it is call shelia beach small Shelia but I do know the people who found it did not want it in house.it is rock carving of women old with hood hold a small child will try to get you picture Shelia beag

Very interesting, it doesn't look African to me... and those eyes look very evil.
Nathalie Devatara yes those eyes says it all, put it back to where it was
@anarchore
I agree.

I don't see evil..
