I remember when teens we would put green ribbons in our hair and bought decorations with Leprechauns on them to decorate on St. Pat's Day. Little did we know what was really behind it all: Leprechauns were originally evil, demonic creatures that could wreak havoc on everything in their path (like in the film of the same name). Their power was held in their shillelagh rod/staff, which is a perversion of Aaronβs rod that had powers from God. The shillelagh is also believed to be a symbol for Moloch, the horned god. The Hanging Gardens of Babylon had a temple of Nimrod (with the single or double horns; represented as aka Moloch) where sacrifices were given, as referred to in 2nd Kings 23:10: Another Tradition Bites The Dust.
Good for you doing your research girl ! Given that all Secular Holidays (including Christmas) are of pagan origin , how does that sit with you ? Honest question because that's what I asked myself when I decided to stop participating in them . (If you do) It made me really think. You know me pretty well on here and that I mean no disrespect by pointing this out ππ΅π»ββοΈ
Yeah, It is hard though to bow out of all of them when you have 3 friends whose Bdays are on St. Pat's day. I don't know how that happened. We don't celebrate any of them as much as we used to. My heart is just not in it after reading the many reports on here. Even Halloween which we used to get Gussied Up for has taken on very little meaning. I think how Halloween has escalated is the worst of all of them. There is so much more Satanic influence in the costumes not. Just very scary to me.
Yes Halloween is the scariest by far and as far as saint pat day my daughter was born on that day too . We have been just fine as a family making our own meaningful traditions .
Yes, it is fun to be creative and stray from the path. Doing your own thing is being a leader not a follower. Also teaches our kids to have a mind of their own.
