Suggested by Mike Ciandella on Twitter!  Pope St. Agatho's feast day was January 10th, so it was perfect timing.  Thanks Mike!

___

JOKE-OGRAPHY: According to tradition, St. Agatho was elected pope at the very old age of 101.  He served for only 3 years before dying (...because he was over a 100 years old), but in that time he managed to squash a whole heresy.  In this cartoon, Agatho's mother plays with him and dreams of his bright future, saying he might even be the pope someday.  The bitter jerk beside them says, "Not in a hundred years!"  When someone says something like, "Not in a [hundred/thousand/million/billion] years, they mean, "That'll never happen."  In this cartoon, the miserable hag is trying to be mean, but her ill-intentioned idiom is accidentally prophetic!

Markland

Markland is a polity of Albion, situated east of Wales, north of London and Kent, and south of Northumber and Sodrick.

History

Markland originates with Saxon settlements in sub-Roman Britannia, which in the west formed (what would go on to be named) Mearce land "borderland". Compare the related demonym Mierce "people of the border", whence the Latin name Mercia and native Merchman "man from Markland".

The petty kingdom of Anglia was annexed by Markland with the Treaty of Oxford in the late eighth century, at the dawn of the Viking Age. This established the persevering border between the mouths of the Severn and the Tames, and incited renewed influx of people into the petty kingdoms on Borland.

Markland weathered the Viking Age much more successfully than neighbouring Northumber, though much of its eastern coast was settled by Danes; the city of Lincon served as the de facto border of Danish rule for several decades. In part this was the inevitable result of tensions along the Welsh border; even during peacetime Theodric the Awefast maintained substantial levy forces.

The tenth-century Elved Marriage (which took place near the modern city of Leeds) ended hostilities between Markland and Dane forces in the east for almost a century. It is said to have been solemnised over a sandstone block later inlaid into the Redstone Chair, a low-backed wooden throne on which many subsequent monarchs were crowned.

Around the turn of the second millennium, Markland was conquering territory from the northern reaches of Wales (incidentally leading to Pope Agatho's canonisation of the Welsh St David). The perennial conflicts between Markland and Wales would come to be collectively referred to as the Mallor Wars.

The First Drengot Empire of the eleventh and twelfth centuries counted Markland as a major vassal, conquered from the south following the subjugation of Kent by Normandy and Greater Devon in 1029.

The Mallor Wars were reignited after a quiescent period by the martial-minded King Andrew II, with the Sack of Rexam in 1301 during which the original St Brigid's Abbey burned to the ground.

Markland was embroiled in the Wars of Fealty in the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries. Tensions over the location and possession of the Redstone Chair boiled over into a conflict that would last forty-one years. Markland conceded several battles to the young Kingdom of Britain in the early years of the wars, culminating in the 1483 Battle of Rexam which expanded the borders of Wales in the north and killed the last Duke of Chestre.

In the final years of the Wars of Fealty, a code known as Thieves' Script was employed by the forces of King Andrew III, apparently adapted from similar systems used by gangs of housebreakers in Nottingham. It is remembered today as a very early precursor of codes like steeplescript or modern one-zeffre encoding.

The poor economic conditions and population displacement in Markland following the Wars of Featly led it to suffer almost twice as many deaths per capita from the Second Great Dying compared to polities like Willemy.

Long contested between Markland and Kent, the city of London found itself independent for one final, lasting time following the Democratic Wars of the mid-eighteenth century.

The spellings of various towns and cities in Markland were rationalised during the Long Peace period of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries (for example, Conster for former Colncester /ˈkɔn.stə/).

The 2010 Œcumen Count, a regular census, recorded that Utter Safford was the secondmost populous city in Markland proper with 4.4 million inhabitants, after the capital of Tommarth.

Pope Gregory XVI, 1832: Mirari Vos:

6. It is Our duty to lead the flock only to the food which is healthful. In these evil and dangerous times, the shepherds must never neglect their duty [...]

7. Indeed you will accomplish this perfectly if, as the duty of your office demands, you attend to yourselves and to doctrine and meditate on these words: “the universal Church is affected by any and every novelty”[5] and the admonition of Pope Agatho: “nothing of the things appointed ought to be diminished; nothing changed; nothing added; but they must be preserved both as regards expression and meaning.”[6] Therefore may the unity which is built upon the See of Peter as on a sure foundation stand firm.

[5] St. Celestine, Pope, epistle 21 to Bishop Galliar. [6] St. Agatho, Pope, epistle to the emperor, apud Labb., ed. Mansi, vol. 2, p. 235.

Out of the Shadow: Eclipse Experiments

Out of the Shadow: Eclipse Experiments

I’ve waited on making this post because it reflects experiments I had begun with the eclipses of January, and continued on with the July eclipse in Cancer. I began this experiment after having several brainstorms. I knew the eclipses were coming up this year, and they’re hitting pretty sensitive places in my chart. Indeed, I have been paying enough attention to what was going on in my life and in…

14th February QUINQUAGESIMA SUNDAY

 • The Philippine calendar celebrates today the Feast of St. JUAN BAUTISTA DE LA CONCEPCIÓN, Priest of the Trinitarian Order who would establish a branch of his order which he named the "Order of Discalced Trinitarians." • N.B.: Despite the endless debate on their legitimacy, the Roman Martyrology gives us the celebration of two Valentines who are both martyrs; one a Roman Priest inscribed in our Philippine calendar and another one, a Bishop of Teramo. • The pre-1970 Roman Martyrology inscribes Sts. Cyril, Monk & Methodius, Bishop on the 7th of July; but in the liturgical reforms of 1970 assigned them on this day.

 AT Rome, on the Flaminian road, in the time of the emperor Claudius, the birthday of blessed VALENTINE, priest and martyr, who after having cured and instructed many persons, was beaten with clubs and beheaded.—Also, at Rome, the holy martyrs VITALIS, Felicula, and ZENO.—At Teramo, St. VALENTINE, bishop and martyr, who was scourged, committed to prison, and as he remained unshaken in his faith, was taken out of his dungeon in the dead of night and beheaded by order of Placidus, prefect of the city.—In the same place, the holy martyrs Proculus, Ephebus and Apollonius, who, whilst watching by the body of St. Valentine, were arrested and put to the sword by the command of the ex-consul Leontius.—At Alexandria, the holy martyrs Bassus, Anthony, and Protolicus, who were cast into the sea.—Also, the holy martyrs Cyrion, priest, Bassian, lector, Agatho, exorcist, and Moses, who perished in the flames and took their flight to heaven.—In the same city, the Saints Denis and Ammonius, who were beheaded.—At Ravenna, St. Eleuchadius, bishop and confessor.—In Bithynia, the abbot St. Auxentius.—At Sorrento, St. Anthony, abbot, who, when the monastery of Monte Cassino was devastated by the Lombards, withdrew into a solitude of the neighborhood, where, celebrated for holiness, he passed calmly to his repose in God. His body is daily glorified by many miracles, and particularly by the deliverance of possessed persons. 

 And elsewhere many other holy martyrs, confessors and holy virgins.  R: Thanks be to God!

September 15 - Tsukushi Futaba

Our Lady of Sorrows (Our Lady of Piety, Our Lady of the Seven Sorrows): One of the most popular Marian titles, a popular Roman Catholic devotion and a key subject for Marian art. The Virgin Mary is portrayed in a sorrowful and lacrimating affect, with seven long knives or daggers piercing her heart, often bleeding. Devotional prayers that consist of meditation began to elaborate on her Seven Sorrows based on the prophecy of Simeon in imagery. She is the patron of the Servite order, the Congregation of Holy Cross, and Poland (by Pontifical decree of Pope St. Paul VI).

November 19 - Rui Yashio

St. Raphael Kalinowski: Polish Discalced Carmelite friar, and was a teacher, engineer, prisoner of war, royal tutor, and priest, who founded many Carmelite monasteries around Poland after their suppression by the Russians. He became a Lieutenant in the Russian Military Engineering Corps in 1857. During his post he was responsible for the planning and supervised construction of the railway between Kursk and Odessa. After joining the Carmelite order at Graz, Austria and ordained a priest in 1882, he worked to restore the Discalced Carmelites to Poland, and for church unity, and was a noted spiritual director for both Catholics and Orthodox. He is canonized as a saint by Pope St. John Paul II in November 1991, the first man to be so recognized in the Order of Discalced Carmelites since John of the Cross.
