Stonehenge Spring Equinox Celebrations 🙏

Ruined it

Spring equinox is celebrated ad a Persian New Year for over 3000 years. Happy New Year!

Tacitus wrote that when Roman soldiers faced the Druids at Anglesey, they froze. Hardened legionaries, stopped in their tracks by priests among burning torches and screaming women. They crossed the strait eventually. But they never forgot it.🏛️

There is a black foreigner there. I presume he was the human sacrifice?

The foundation of this celebration is the thousands-year-old Iranian celebration of Nowruz.

@RobLeHuray I wonder when the UK becomes fully Islamicised if they will knock this down and build another mosque on the site?

They look like they all smell funny 😔

Any other day of the year this lot would be gluing themselves to roads and howling about Palestine.

I’d love to go back to stone henge, but the peacefulness of the place is sadly broken. I went there as a kid in the 70s with parents and it was eerily silent and very atmospheric

@GrannyMooninVA It’s actually in a few more hours but never mind. Happy Equinox.✨✨✨

Live look at the Department for Transports latest planning meeting on the Stonehenge tunnel.

Happy Nowruz to everyone! 🪻🍎🧄🪞🕯️🌸

Wonderful. I love this atmosphere.

It's beautiful because there isn't a Christian around demonizing it.

I can say for a fact that all the people involved in this are unofficial clowns

Ah, equinox, was forgetting. Goodness, what a cluster of pagans all in one place.

My ancestors are from around there. 😆🥴

whatever!

Nowruz, marking the vernal equinox and the onset of spring. This celebration is a significant cultural heritage, gifted from Iranian forebears to enrich global traditions.

Amaterasu-Persephone has Risen! Indeed, she has Risen! Wishing you Ostara’s blessing!

@cathiedunn Yaaaayyyy. ✌️😁

It will be a mosque in a year thanks to Starmer.

@StefanBurnsGeo

This doesn't really tie in with the idea of a quiet time for wonder and reflection to me.

@Carbongate Just remember. This whole place has ZERO to do with Druids

Nothing more than cosplay.

Ban mass outdoor religious gatherings, says N Farage

Hurrah for English eccentricity!

Stinky goblins and the dance of the soap-free age.

Makes me sad to be Celtic
