Archery

[vera_j]

Not every day but as often as possible, I do my archery. Not more than 30 minutes, I return home from work after 6p.m. and had to do things about the house and feed the boys first.
But I love shooting more and more - and some progress is showing. It also helps a lot with relaxation. You can´t shoot without a great deal of concentration which is good, you can - or better must - switch off for those 30 minutes.


This is an old sand "quarry" I go to do my training. A blue plastic bag is my target, the distance is real ( about 22m)


One of better results

I also understand fully to "archer´s fingers" ...*Grins*

The Summer Solstice - June 21st

[dougal-al.livejournal.com]

Hiya
Just letting you know that at 3:56 am June 21st - I will be celebrating the longest day of the year in my usual manner (taught to me by the Druids) It consists of receiting Gaelic poetry and song while dancing naked outside facing East as the Sun rises. It's a ritual i've observed for some yrs now even on The Hill of Tara, Co. Meath (The burial bounds of the Great High Kings of Ireland)
Feel free to join in even if only in thought & mind!

You're reading Anam Cara!!!!!!! It means "The name & soul of Cara"
My niece is called Cara because it means * friend * in several languages.
Thanks so much for supporting the ancient traditions !

It is my pleasure - really. Such wisdom! Again, my friend shares it all with me and teaches me. Those traditions should be cherished!
