But gradually, year by year, Turbulent skies grow gentle, Seas subside. Burnt brown lands grow green. There is food, there is air, there is breathing room. The nights are cool. Saved but sorrowing, He [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#160; This October I had a chance to mix two of my hobbies, geology and mythology, on the Giant&#8217;s Causeway in northern Ireland. Geologists tell us that the Giant&#8217;s Causeway is a beautiful example of columnar basalt, lava that cooled slowly and cracked into enormous columns of four to eight sides.

		<description><![CDATA[I love both the old Celtic holiday of Samhain and the modern secular holiday of Hallowe&#8217;en, despite the over-commercialization of the latter. They are two different holidays. For me, they are both magical. Personally, I celebrate Samhain by honoring my ancestors: I light a candle and spend some time remembering my Nana, my other relatives, [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You&#8217;ve heard of King Midas of the &#8220;Golden Touch,&#8221; monarch of ancient Phrygia (See theoi.com&#8217;s Midas entry for classical Greek and Roman sources.) Probably you&#8217;ve heard Nathaniel Hawthorne&#8217;s version, which makes Midas into a moralistic fable about gold-greed and appreciating the simple things in life. Hawthorne supplies King Midas with a daughter to drive the [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Lady Brigid, the “exalted one” as your name says, I’m afraid I’m a few days late. Your feast-day’s just past. But I’ll probably be late for my own wake, so let me start Mythprint on Imbolc -- or thereabouts -- with your blessing.
Caesar called you Minerva, assuming you were the same goddess worshiped under a different name. After the Romans divided Gaul, the Celts used Minerva too, or sometimes Sulis. Caesar said they worshiped you as the goddess of...]]></description>
