Podcast appearances and mentions of sky father

Today on Not Serious Wine Chats, Pete and John and I sit down with Jannine Rickards (Ngāpuhi & Ngāi the Rangi) from Huntress Wines. I first met Jannine when she was the winemaker at Urlar in Gladstone, a sub-region of the Wairarapa. This part of the country clearly resonates for Jannine as Huntress shifts from a side hustle to the main act. This wonderful wahine still sources fruit and makes wine in this North Island neighbourhood. The name Huntress comes from an extremely pragmatic, utterly pedestrian point of reference for Jannine herself is a huntress. A childhood spent on a sheep and beef farm in the Coromandel nurtured an understanding for animal husbandry and welfare, alongside an innate awareness of the restorative powers of spending time in nature.Her own grandfather passed on traditions such as ancient practices of net fishing for flounder, and her father shared his passion for growing a garden that can feed the family. So it shouldn't come as such a surprise that Jannine grew up to combine the two by becoming a deeply respectful hunter and a massive advocate for a plentiful table laden with homegrown goodness. These things are, in essence, Jannine and factors that contribute to how she sees wine holistically fitting into our lives.Jannine's practice across her winemaking, her gardening and her hunting is based in Te Ao Māori, where land and spirit are inextricably connected. One thing's for sure Huntress wines sure do taste like they summon the powers of Ra, the sun and the mystical whims of Te Whenua, the land, in a magical balance that best reflects the place they come from. There is something of a nomadic story to the Huntress wines. With no vineyards under ownership or her own winemaking space, Jannine leans into the opportunities that exist around her. Much of the wine story is held up by community and people underneath it, and Jannine's story especially represents this as she sources fruit and facilities available to her each season. It means she must work hard across a lot of levels of the business and sure, one day she'd love to put down roots somewhere of her own but for now this huntress is happy just making the most of what Papatuanuku, Earth Mother and Ranginui, Sky Father have to offer from wherever she finds herself. Luckily for us that the universe provides so we can smash a glass or two of Jannine's explorative and most excellent wines. So grab your tramping boots, put on your waterproof parker and make sure the singlet next to your skin is made from New Zealand wool. We're heading bush for this one. This is the Not Serious Jannine Rickards chat.not serious wine chats would like to thank our supporters:TradecraftBy the BottleAntipodes Water Co.

A humbled Tom Walsh was overcome with emotion after he and Joelle King were honoured as New Zealand's flagbearers for the 2022 Commonwealth Games. Walsh and King were today formally announced as Ngā Pou Hapai (flagbearers) by Chef de Mission Nigel Avery at a team function held at New Zealand House in Birmingham. Walsh, a defending champion in the shot put, and King, a three-time Commonwealth Games gold medallist in squash, will lead out the Kiwi team at the opening ceremony at Alexander Stadium on Friday morning (NZT). Moments after accepting the honour in front of 250 teammates, Walsh had to pause to collect himself when describing what it meant. "It's a hard one to put into words. When I got the call from Nigel, I was a little bit shocked," said Walsh, his voice breaking. "It's not why we do it, but it's a huge honour to get asked to hold the flag and fly it for New Zealand. To be up front with Joelle is going to be awesome." Walsh was in buoyant mood when speaking to media after the conclusion of the ceremony, presided over by governor-general Dame Cindy Kiro. With the flag draped around his shoulders, he compared the feeling to winning a bronze medal at last year's Tokyo Olympics. "When my voice last broke was probably when I was 14," he laughed. "I got a bit emotional last year after Tokyo, getting third there, in terms of how much went into that year. "But this is a completely different emotion - standing in front of 250 people who I respect for many different reasons. It was definitely a moment in time when it all kind of smacked me in the face and got the better of me. "It's something that not many people get to do. I'm really looking forward to leading the team, waving our flag and soaking up the whole experience." In addition to his pair of Olympic bronze medals, Walsh is also a two-time Commonwealth Games medallist, winning gold at Gold Coast 2018 and silver at Glasgow 2014. Walsh celebrates winning shot put gold in 2018. Photo / Getty King, who with six medals is one of New Zealand's most decorated Commonwealth Games athletes, says she grew up in awe of New Zealand's flagbearers. "I'm really honoured to be adding my name to an amazing list of Commonwealth Games flagbearers," she said. "There's such a great team behind us so it's going to be really special to lead them onto such a big stage." King will compete in the squash singles, women's doubles and mixed doubles at Birmingham 2022. King and Walsh were each presented with a pounamu pendant to be worn by as they lead the team into the opening ceremony. The pounamu was carved for the New Zealand team by Ngāi Tahu master carver Bevan Climo, with Rakinui (the Sky Father) pounamu to be worn by the male flagbearer and Papatūānuku (the Earth Mother) pounamu to be worn by the female flagbearer. It will be the first time a male and female athlete have jointly carried the New Zealand flag at a Commonwealth Games opening ceremony, with a change in rules allowing for the naming of two flagbearers. King and Walsh were chosen by Avery taking into account a wide range of factors including past performances, ability to lead and inspire New Zealand athletes, competition preparation and performance standards. King in action during the gold-medal match on the Gold Coast. Photo / Getty "These two athletes have inspired New Zealanders with their performances for more than a decade and they epitomise the special values and culture of our team," said Avery. "We know they'll do us proud as they lead our team into the opening ceremony, and we look forward to watching them compete over the next few weeks." Dame Sophie Pascoe was the last Commonwealth Games opening ceremony flagbearer, leading the team at Gold Coast in 2018.

IntroductionBaiame is the ancient sky god of the Kamilaroi peoples of New South Wales. He is known for inventing the stone fish trap and for answering prayers for rain. He is also considered to be the creator god for several Aboriginal tribes of south eastern Australia like the Wonnarua, Kamilaroi, Eora, Darkinjung, and Wiradjuri.Physical TraitsBaiame is often depicted as wearing a large head-dress with various internal decorations. The images available are from numerous cave paintings and stone carvings available, so more detailed descriptions are unavailable. These include vertical lines running down his body and bands and dots. It is believed that he is an older person who is wise and takes an interest in helping the humans who worship him.FamilyHe is believed to have two wives, Birrangulu and Ganhanbili. Birrangulu is commonly identified and represented as an emu which is one of the birds that is native to the region. He is also believed to have fathered Dharramalan with Birrangulu according to some tribes while others believe Dharramalan to be his brother.Other NamesBaiame is usually not known by any other names but there have been many variations to the way the name is spelt depending on the person who is writing about the god. The most common representations are Biame, Baayami, Baayama or Byamee. He is also referred as Sky Hero or All Father or Sky Father among most of the tribes from the Australian mainland.Powers and AbilitiesComing down from the sky, Baiame created forests, rivers, and mountains. He then gave people their laws of life, their songs, culture and the traditions that are followed even today. He created the first initiation site known as a bora which is a place where boys were initiated into manhood. He returned to the sky once he was finished giving him the name Sky Father.It was forbidden to mention or talk about the name of Baiame publicly. Women were not allowed to see drawings of Baiame nor approach Baiame sites—which are often male initiation sites.Modern Day InfluenceBaiame sites like the Baiame Caves are popular tourist spots in Australia due to the many cave paintings that still exist. The native tribes still hold Baiame in very high regard and fiercely protect other sacred sites that are associated with the creator god. Many tribes also ensure that the male initiation ceremonies are still conducted according to the traditions of the tribe and dedicate it to Baiame.

Dyau is the Sky Father in Rig Ved. The original God of the pastoral Aryans, Dyau was forgotten in India but went on to become Zeus in Greece and Jupiter in Rome.

11.27.20 - Day 9/13 of the Blue Eagle wavespell * Overtone Moon 13 Thanksgiving fell on White Galactic Wind, a final salute to the paternal divinity of Mayan astrology. The Sky Father, the giver of breath, the absent presence of space and air - and on the most shadowy level, the patriarch who is stuck in masculine aims and attitudes without consideration or co-parenting practices that include the divine feminine. So maybe you also had a day which included vestiges of that oppressive, harsh aggression. Just know it ended a 40-day (41, actually) progression of White Wind's preeminence. And now we are just freshly beginning the Red Dragon 41-day arc, thankfully entirely maternal, the nurturer, the place of constant contact and holding fast onto us. The center point of this Red Dragon sojourn is the Red Dragon wavespell which also begins our next Tzolkin cycle. That's coming up. Stay with Natural Time for this approaching transit, with only the Yellow Star wavespell left as we complete our 260-day spiraling into the center of enchantment.  

The Proto-Indo-Europeans of the Pontic Caspian Steppe and other parts of Eastern Europe in the neolithic worshipped a paternal deity who they called Dyḗus ph₂tḗr “sky father”. With comparative linguistics and comparative mythology we can learn a lot about this ancient god from whom Greek Zeus, Roman Jupiter, Irish Dagda, Vedic Dyáuṣ Pitṛ́ and Norse Odin and many others also derive. In this video I explain what we know about the god’s mythic roles relating to cattle, his relationship to other gods in the Indo-European religion and his association with different animals in later pagan religions.This podcast depends on your support:Paypal: https://www.paypal.me/survivethejivePatreon: https://www.patreon.com/survivethejiveSubscribestar: https://subscribestar.com/survive-the-jiveKo-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/survivethejiveFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/SurviveTheJiveMusic in order:theme song: Wolcensmen - SunneAltyn Tuu - Altai Tuva Xurious - Steppe expansionElegiac - Ashwind interludeDoug Maxwell - Bansure ragaSjhof - path to the templeOrmgård - SjálfsfornStark Von Oben - ImperatorHalindir - Hedelandet IIKevin McLeod - DhakaMyling - TöckenBorg - The May queen enters the circleSources:Anthony, D., ‘The Horse, the Wheel, and Language’ 2007Dumezil, G., ‘Mythe et Épopée’ 1973Dumezil, G., ‘Mitra-Varuna: An Essay on Two Indo-European Representations of Sovereignty’, 1988Kershaw, K., ‘The one-eyed god: Odin and the (Indo-)Germanic Männerbünde’ (Journal of Indo-European studies monograph) 2000Lincoln, B., ‘THE INDO-EUROPEAN MYTH OF CREATION’ 1975Matasović, R., ‘A Reader in Comparative Indo-European Religion’ 2010Mylonas, G.

The Norse god Týr is sometimes called a battle god of minor significance, while others argue. based on etymology that he was once the chief god of the Germanic peoples - a sky father. However, perhaps neither argument is entirely correct. In this video I am joined by Angriff and Dr Boaz and we will discuss Týr and the Proto-Indo-European sky father in the context of Georges Dumézil's theory that he was in fact a secondary sovereign god whose principle attribute was neither paternal nor related to battle, but judicial matters!This channel depends on your support:Paypal: https://www.paypal.me/survivethejivePatreon: https://www.patreon.com/survivethejiveSubscribestar: https://subscribestar.com/survive-the...Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/SurviveTheJiveGAB - https://gab.com/StJ

Our guest today is Makuini Ruth Tai.  I first met her as Ruth Tai. She is happy to be called either Makuini or Ruth, because she knows and honours the source of both her birth names. Some two hundred years ago, the word Maori was not used as an identity term, It was only when the European landed on the shores of Aotearoa that a shift happened.  When Ruth was young - she identified more with her whanau (immediate and extended family) and her hapu (sub-tribe or clan).  The use of Maori as an identity label is fairly recent. Ruth asserts that Maori was not just an oral language, it was also recorded. However, the European translators did not recognise the graphics as a written language.  REO means language and voice.  Every design, every pattern is the voice recorded/written in graphic form.  Ruth is  committed to decoding REO through the Rich Earth Oratory of the old time Maori, who understood the power of the voice and its varying tones.  They didn't just 'talk', they also intoned or chanted and sang and were very passionate orators. The interview: Decoding REO Maori (Maori Language) in esoteric terms is extremely illuminating. This unveiling will resound throughout the Maori world and beyond  - unfolding a renaissance in all things Maori and how we see and relate to existence in a 21st century setting.  It appears that British colonialists interpreted the Maori language incorrectly. That there was another esoteric level encoded in the resonance of the sound of REO. The evidence points to this. In the 1800’s when the European colonised  Aotearoa a land they called New Zealand, their mindset was of the Industrial revolution - being mechanistic - as well as of Victorian values - of the church - (and yes there were pioneers and adventurers). Essentially that was the level of language and understanding at that time. That was the degree of ‘consciousness’ they brought to the actual translation of REO - into English. The translators knew nothing of the pulse and resonance or the real depth of what was embedded in the language - especially that of the messages that were encoded within ‘every single word’. Thus, they misconstrued the hidden elements. Whereas Maori, who navigated the vastness of oceans by the stars, yet were equally at home in the density of the bush/forest - (that virtually covered the whole of Aotearoa NZ) - had indeed a language of immersion into nature itself. And Ruth in her personal research over many years, realised that we have not been able to factor in the depth of REO, so she has focused her life on recovering and unfolding it for a new paradigm that we are entering. Ruth, unpacks the word Maori Ma-ori … ma translates as clear, clean, pure, white light. Ori is vibration, energy. When we see the word Maori with these insights we have a totally different translation. We can see that the word Maori codes an origin from light and sound and today quantum physics speaks to this … The words  clear, clean, pure, white light, vibration or energy - do not speak of identity . Thus Maori describes who we are within ourselves - our state of beingness. Kia Ora is usually only thought of as a greeting. Kia  is pronounced  Key-Ah -   This one little word packs a lot of power. Kia is the verb To Be, To Do, To Have. Ora pronounced Aw-rrrah also refers to ‘wellness’ and ‘of Light and Sound’. Thus, to use the greeting Kia Ora you are in fact saying, "Greetings O Being Of Light and Sound. Be well, Do well and you will Have wellness". Ora means receiving the light of that divine source - to bring us into wellness and we know in todays world via our technical knowhow, light and sound travel together. But in the early 1800’s the translators did not understand the higher dimension of both electricity and sound. Kia Ora becomes more meaningful when you greet with this intention, when you greet each person as a radiant being of light and sound. When mentioning Ra and the Egyptian connections - Ruth says Ra is also inner light, it is not always an outward projection. When travelling to the US and spending time with first nation peoples, she noted a certain similarity of resonance or vibration as to how they spoke and voiced words…  and how she perceived language to be.  She recognises that first nations connect with nature and cosmos as first teachers - they sink into mother earth and are receptive to all that pulses. - such as star light and Matariki the Pleiades.   She mentions that the word mother and father used to describe Earth Mother and Sky Father - as terms of endearment are lovely really, but their personified names of Rangi and Nuku (Papa-tu-a-Nuku) convey an even truer meaning… Cross over-words that are also in the universal field like tapu and taboo - how do they come about?   Pu is always about the source - puna. It also means spring (where water emerges). In this interview, Tim who was brought up in a rural area surrounded by Maori community that was impelled to speak English, mentions how he communicates to foreign visitors what Kia Ora means and in particular how to remember this important word. Tim’s version =  key - aura    Kia  remember as a KEY to open up something and ora is an aura  - we all have an AURA or an energy field surrounding our body. Ruth ' s understanding of Aroha   aroha is unconditional love aro is a word for thought - how we breathe that thought - how we emote that thought - will either bring it to life or if we do not breathe it deeply if we do not emotionally involve ourselves around it - it just sits there. aro is thought - also to intend and also to pay attention     ha is the life force - it’s the breath - or even the love force - the love behind the thought She says that aroha is also obedient … it obeys everything - it is the unconditionality of aroha of love - that is its nature. So where we put our intention and our focus, that is what we are bringing into reality  - we are moving the force of aroha to have it express itself in the here and now. Thus, aroha becomes very extensive and all encompassing.  It is having thought and breath unified - to become and to mean LOVE in all of its unconditionality… and to love wisely, which Ruth says is very important as our intent is critical.  Where you put your focus you are going to get it - that love will always obey and always deliver. So it is how conscious we are in the moment - we need to be very mindful - our thoughts can be empowering or dis-empowering - the choice is always ours and ours alone, because we own the thought. When it is all put together Ruth says it describes our aroha birthright The  interview covers tapu and the way seeds grow as well as introducing Rupert Sheldrakes morphic resonance into the idea that tapu may feed into the localised field, when the the tohunga (seer, expert) sets the intention for a tapu to be activated. Where a death occurs in a specific area, or that a crop or fishing area not be entered maybe because it was not the season. The interview covers the historical setting. We have to always remember that over the centuries the old time Maori had embedded a totally different wave length of thinking and being - and when the European came to NZ, they too had a very different wave length of thinking, too. Europeans came from the industrial revolution and some were of peasantry or serfdom and escaped as described in William Blake’s song about ‘the dark satanic mills’ of England.  Basically  they landed in a country covered in jungle (bush) right down to the waters edge. Most of the new settlers had lived outside of the deepness of ’the nature’ - of really embedding themselves in the pulse of life that vibrated when you are surrounded by virtually no humans at all, other than the sounds of birds and insects plus the wind etc. The landscape was on occasions very still. The trees sighed, the creek murmured, the wind intoned, and the rocks smiled … and everything pulsed from sun up to sundown and throughout the evening of darkness and star light … This is what the old time  Maori experienced and revered. The Early settlers were strangers in a strange land… and had to make everything up usually individually or in tiny groups as they went along toiling, cutting, digging erecting involved in makeshift  - many experienced hard learnings on the way. Indigenous people are the nature people - they are the ones with their conscious connection to all the subtle and not so subtle movement that surrounds  them, and through living and working in a group or community setting, they had their finger on the pulse of the environment that enveloped them. Whereas as when the colonialist leaders landed, they were an expression of the corporate language that made their beachhead here in Aotearoa, and in doing so took away, or lost the heart connection …and turned it into something that distanced us from nature and today we have ended up with a language that has a hardness to it  - in the sounds … The interview moves on to cover: Karakia is prayer - to bring thought into reality - to bring the sacred light into form. The fact that Ruth can decode REO and divine a totally deeper level of being that has been slumbering for too many years - it’s like finding an esoteric pathway, when in fact we have in some ways been walking an exoteric path thinking that we had the Maori language sussed. In Ruth’s words… with the decoding of the actual words as spoken by the old time Maori, we now have a window into the ancient language and she says that with the language of quantum sciences that we have at our disposal today, we can now comprehend the mother tongue, that Maori already knew and lived the science - way back then… We spoke of Tane god of the forest,  Tangaroa god of the sea and god of the weather Tāwhirimātea. Plus the hongi and what it is as a greeting - 3rd eye to 3rd eye, forehead to forehead and sharing breath. That in many ways we are not today realising it as a sacred act - there is too much chatter and we are being casual about it, when it is actually a sacred act of connection, a  special time to heal, to clear, to cleanse, to transform to transmute all of the ancestral lines. That Maori always have their sacred connection to the Land  - their local mountain, their river, their lake or spring - this extension of them, this connection is that these physical manifestations are seen as the elders. In ceremonial greetings the women are the ‘first callers’ of welcome and greetings. They chant their oratory and weave all the elements and invisible forces of life into a coherency that connects all people to the occasion of unity. There is also a plethora of female goddesses, but these were missed out by the early translators of maori myth and legend ... they are making a comeback today. Finally, when European set foot on Aotearoa - Maori described them as pakeha pa  is to connect ke  is different ha is breath People of a different breath This is only half of the interview. You can download the transcribed conversation in full and listen to the audio.  It gifts us a very profound understanding of a people who have inhabited this land for at least centuries and some say since the beginning. ******** To reiterate - this language of a different frequency was not available to the early settlers, explorers and missionaries in the 1800’s. It was lost in translation. This new rendition - throws light on a whole new way of: allowing, being, doing, seeing and understanding. This is why Maori today are driven to protect and encourage all to learn REO Maori (Maori Language). Connect with Makuini Ruth Tai at REO Communications on Facebook.
