Mucha Museum was another highlight of Prague!

Art Nouveau and Jugendstil were arguably pagan revival movements, even if unconsciously so.

The Muses are goddesses. And the word inspiration is built from the word spirit, to breath in spirit. It goes back to pagan Greece, meaning inspiration came from the supernatural.

When you look at the art created in Christian Europe, it's dead. Lacking soul or spirit. Christian era art is as bad as modern art. Dull and ugly. Because it's not inspired. There is no spirit in the Abrahamic religions, they are merely mind control brainwashing ideologies.

The Renaissance, Romantic Movement, Pre-Raphaelites, and finally Art Nouveau and Judgendstil show the Spirit of the SOUL of Ethnic Pagan Europe breaking through and shining.

Mucha is a complex figure who was a product of his time and circumstance. But, he was certainly channeling the Ethno-pagan soul of the Czechs and Europeans more broadly in his art.

As someone with lineage to the Mayflower, the American Revolutionary War, and the American Civil War, I applaud this guy for slamming Rama-Smarmy where it hurts!

America has 3 true American races. Those being the Amerindians who migrated earlier and may have supplanted a previous fair skinned group (Solutrean hypothesis), Europeans, who had been traveling and settling in the Americas longer than the history books admit, and Africans who were brought through no choice of their own.

These three groups have had enough difficulty as it is learning to live with each other.

But, the point is, there are 3 AMERICAN races - White Americans, Black Americans, Amerindians. Everyone else is a newcomer ethnic enclave.

We, Foundational Stock White Americans, must recognize we are an ETHNIC GROUP and stand up for our rightful place! And our RIGHT to live amongst our own kind! Just as Amerindians and Black Americans prefer to do!

Hey Rama-Smarmy, my DNA can trace me to English and German settlers in New York State. I am a member of the ETHNIC GROUPS of early settlers of NYS and Northern Mid Atlantic. How DARE you tell me that Heritage Americans don’t exist! Vivek Rama-smarmy is endorsing ethnocide of Foundational Stock Americans! GET HIM OUT!

Two expressions of the same ritual logic: Christianity inhabiting a seasonal system (left), and Yule operating on its own terms (right).

Christmas as Ritual Season (Not Doctrinal Feast)

Even among committed Christians, there is no consensus on the origins or historical grounding of Christmas symbols. What is defended is the season itself, not the accuracy of its explanations — further evidence that Christmas operates primarily as a ritual season, not a doctrinal feast.
This becomes clear not through speculative “Pagan gotcha” arguments, but by listening to Christians themselves.

Some explicitly acknowledge that Christmas customs were adapted from earlier seasonal practices to facilitate conversion. Others accept that the date does not correspond to the historical birth of Jesus, insisting instead that “it symbolizes it.” Still others reject pre-Christian continuities outright — while nevertheless continuing to observe the same seasonal behaviors.

That word — symbolizes — is decisive. Symbols do not require historical precision; rituals require only repetition, timing, and social participation.

Ritual Time vs. Historical Time

Ethnographic and folkloric sources consistently show that midwinter was treated as a period of heightened ritual efficacy, long before Christian theology attached new narratives to it.

Nils Lid documents Scandinavian Yule as a complex of ritual acts involving food left untouched for unseen guests, offerings to household and field spirits, fertility divination, and calendrical forecasting tied explicitly to Christmas night and morning. These practices persist well into the Christian period with little theological reinterpretation.

In Finland and the wider Finno-Baltic sphere, Andreas Nordberg records Christmas as a threshold season used for agricultural omens, weather divination, and future prosperity — functions incompatible with a purely commemorative feast.

Douglas Hill's broad comparative survey shows Christmas repeatedly appearing in European folk belief as a power-bearing date:

• weather and harvest omens tied to Christmas moonlight and sunlight

• beliefs about births on Christmas conferring special abilities

• prohibitions against cutting certain trees or burning specific woods during the season

• ritual bread baked on Christmas Day believed to cure illness

None of these depend on the Nativity narrative. They depend on timing.

Just as Italians name weekdays after planetary gods without conscious pagan intent (lunedì, martedì…), Yule — now called Christmas — operates as a functional inheritance rather than a remembered one. The ritual persists even when its older meanings are no longer articulated — or are actively denied.

Hill notes this pattern explicitly: practices once embedded in Pagan seasonal rites are not erased by Christianity, but reframed, blessed, or tolerated as long as they no longer threaten doctrine. The blessing of ploughs, beating of bounds, and seasonal use of greenery survive precisely because they serve social and agricultural continuity, not theology.

Even attempts to reinterpret symbols — such as identifying the evergreen tree with the biblical burning bush — confirm the point: the ritual object predates the explanation.

Therefore it may be reasonably concluded that Christmas did not replace an earlier ritual season. It inhabited Yule.

The Church supplied narrative and doctrine; the calendar supplied power. What endured was not belief, but practice — repeated annually at the moment when the year itself appeared most vulnerable.

That is why Christmas still works, even when no one agrees on why.

Excerpt from "Ethnographic Journeys"

Seeing how the white British have completely abandoned the Hare Krishnas was really eye opening. We wondered if was an unconscious “racism” by these anti-racist lefties. The more that Indians came to dominate, the less the British felt comfortable?

Or is it because nearly everything about Hinduism, despite an Indo-European root, is overtly foreign?

Next I thought about George Harrison's role in getting the Hare Krishnas set up in England with the donation of the Tudor manor.

Looking at the hordes of foreigners flocking to this central location, the only visual comparison I could think of was swarms of insects. It's as if Harrison provided a nest for a queen bee and now there is a thriving, buzzing hive.

Excerpt from "Ethnographic Journeys" regarding George Harrison's donation of a Tudor Era manor to the Hare Krishnas:

The building is a true piece of English heritage. Do any of these Hindu visitors care a jot about the English heritage and history of this place? Imagine if this building was used to house an English folk culture collection instead. My husband noted that if you went up to these people and started asking them if they know who George Harrison is, a large number won't have any idea. Don't know, don't care.

I wonder how he would feel about his “legacy” being used as an immigration funnel. The number of foreign accents among the people running the place shows that this organization is certainly being used as a chain-migration hub. They are most certainly getting large numbers of visas processed. His name is on signs around the grounds like a big fat white bird raising the cuckoo's egg in his own nest.

Excerpt from Ethnographic Journeys, comparing forced diversity in European ballet vs purely ethnic Chinese dance performance Shen Yun:

Shen Yun is a dance performance that highlights China's ancient roots in a beautifully spiritual way. All of the dancers are ethnic Chinese, which adds to the aesthetic. You can't help but compare with European ballet performances which now are forced to diversify. It ruins the experience because different races have different body types. Not to mention the double standards about when the term “cultural appropriation” is applied.

Ballet has historically been known for being brutal about body type standards. It's sad for the dancers who don't make the cut, but the uniformity of body type is part of the beauty of the aesthetic. Busty Turkish women have plenty of other career opportunities open to them. But, you won't see Shen Yun letting them perform!

Alfons Mucha and Adolf Hitler?

Working on my next essay. I promised a piece on Alfons Mucha. But, I felt it was important to go into the ethnic problems under the Austro-Hungarian Empire to give some context. This bleeds into ethnic nationalism movements. And surprizing similarities between Mucha and Hitler 🤯

Mucha may have been horrified by the comparison, nevertheless they are both men shaped by many of the same cultural, social, political issues and movements of their day! Both men started exploring other career paths in their youth. Ultimately, both men peaked with going all in dedicating their life’s work to the preservation of their Folk.

The Czechs and the Germans felt their ethnic groups were oppressed under the imperialism of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Both groups fomented ethnic nationalist movements to stand up for their own ethnic survival. World War II cannot be understood without this key background information.

I aim to upload this by Saturday www.subscribestar.com/OakwiseBecoming

It was researching my surname family history that I discovered we had been Zipser Saxons, from the region referred to as Zips by German speakers and Spiš in the Slovak language. This solved the mystery of why the generations passed down a German identity but genealogy records confused the disconnected descendants when immigration records stated Austria on some documents and Kingdom of Hungary on others. It’s because Germans were settled in pockets all around central and Eastern Europe for centuries. At the time my ancestor left, Slovakia was under the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

This gave me a historical framework by which to place events which led up to WWII into context which modern fake history purveyors leave out. Your average dumb dumb just swallows the post-war propaganda without any understanding that there is decades of relevant background information in the cultural situation leading up to the events of the 1930s.

I’m going into some of this in my next essay.
