Rowan Ives recommends The Irish Pagan School...
"The courses at the Irish Pagan School offer an in-depth approach to Irish paganism that is based on genuine history and folklore. There is so much here for curious learners of all levels to gain knowledge and insight on their spiritual paths while avoiding the misinformation that is sadly common in popular modern paganism. I have benefited greatly from the classes and look forward to taking more."

    as a mega fan of Wicked: the musical (from the book, which turns the Wizard of Oz into a fragile fascist dictator, and the Wicked Witch into the marginalised hero) I appreciated you drawing the connections between modern satire and what is meant by satire in the mythology

    Fuck, yes! I believe the mystical power of satire still exists, that bards still walk with one foot in the Otherworld, and that although the legal power is long gone the magical power lives on.

    Thank you for the explanation and I hope people learn from this

    My favorite satirical’ish film would be History of the World Pt 1. A lot of actual messages that most don’t ever pick up on.

    I regularly had satire used against me as a child by my mum. It is always healing to hear it was a misuse of the form

    Is Satire something that is taught as an Irish practice today by anyone you trust?

    Also, insulting someone's physical appearance was not allowed in satire. The bards were supposed to be calling people out on their shit, not tearing them down for how they look

    Damn, when a chieftain can lose his status just by having a satire placed against him...the ancient Irish did not play around!
