The God of Sleep

 

According to Hesiods Theogony, which was written in about 700 BC, Hypnos is the god of sleep, the son of Nyx (Night) and brother of Thanatos (Death). Like the latter, he lives where Night and Day meet and where Atlas is holding up the heavens. But while the merciless Thanatos has a heart of iron, Hypnos sweeps across land and sea, bringing peaceful and friendly sleep to men.

Hypnos, who according to Ovid (Metamorphoses 11.623) is the “gentlest” of the gods, is depicted as a naked youth, hurrying as though in flight, his torso bent forward and his right foot touching the ground only with its toes. In his outstretched right hand he is holding a horn from which a sleep-inducing liquid flows; his lowered left hand holds poppy capsules. Large wings, like those of the messenger of the gods, Hermes, are growing out of his full head of hair, which is held together by a band across his forehead and tied together in a knot at his neck. The sweeping gesture of his outstretched right arm corresponds to his right leg, which stretches backwards, while his left forearm points in the same direction as the left leg, on which his weight is resting.

The statuette is a smaller copy of a Greek original. The best-known copies are those in Madrid (marble) and London (bronze head), but unfortunately the original is not mentioned in the Classical literary sources. It is usually linked to artists of the 4th century BC (Praxiteles, Scopas, Leochares), but given the complexity of the motion depicted, it could also have been created in the later Hellenistic period.

The statuette comes from the collection of Joseph Angelo de France, who under Empress Maria Theresa was “director-general of the imperial and royal treasury, galleries and other precious collections”. He died in 1761, and his extensive collection of Classical bronzes was acquired from his heiress in 1808 for the Collection of Greek and Roman Antiquities.

Fiume o Morte!

 

Black is The Night

 BLACK IS THE NIGHT 

Black is the night on the mountains 

Snow fall on the rocks. 

In the dark, in the wild nature, on the rough stones, the narrows, the klepht hits his sword.

In his right hand holds a thunderbolt.

The mountain is his palace, the sky his covering and the gun his hope.

The tyrants flee scared by his black knife.

With sweat rains his bread, he knows how to live with honor, and how to die.The wiliness runs the world and the unjust fate.

The bad owns the wealth and here on the rocks resides, the hidden virtue.

The Soul of Chivalry

 

IN THE MIDDLE AGES OF EUROPE, numerous knightly orders emerged, their esoteric secrets kept only for the initiates. Their adepts were steeped in the prowess of warriors, but had a strict code of honour and piety that governed their conduct. The practice of these virtues was the aim of chivalry, and the goal was nothing less than the transformation of the knight into a type of fighting ascetic seeking the Holy Grail.

The German Advance in Greece

Continuing from the previous post. From the official German propaganda newsreels, broadcasted in April 30 1941. The German advance in Greece. From the northern borders down to Athens.

Again, for decades the propaganda - lies from the so-called allies was that "the enemy is entering into empty towns with the population closed behind their locked houses". 

As you'll see, it happened exactly the oppposite!

 

Hellas in WW2 - Backstabbed and Sacrificed for the British Intrests

 

Few days ago an intresting article appered in one of the major news sites of Hellas. Its things that we,  National Socialists says for decades now, secrets well-kept by the history as it was written by the victors of 1945. Instead they kept repeating lies such as "we will not say that Greeks fight like heroes, but that heroes fight like Greeks" and crap like that. The truth is that back then, Hellas was backstabbed and sacrificed by its so called "allies" which at the same time they were negotiating with her enemy countries (like Turkey etc).

Here is the full article in english:

https://en.protothema.gr/2025/02/07/how-churchill-provoked-the-german-invasion-of-greece/

Some intresting parts of it:

"Mussolini decided to ask for a ceasefire with the help of the Germans but was blocked by the Foreign Minister and his son-in-law, Ciano. Meanwhile, the Germans, who probably disagreed with the Italian attack on Greece, seeing the tragic position of their allies, attempted to mediate to end the Greco-Italian War, “offering” Greece the territories of Northern Epirus that our Army had occupied."

"The Germans only requested the complete removal of all British forces from Greece. Despite the fact that the German proposal seriously occupied the Greek side, it was not implemented, mainly because the British exerted unbearable pressure on Metaxas to reject it. The death of Metaxas on January 29, 1941, is at least suspicious. In fact, some serious historians and researchers believe that Metaxas was murdered"

"Churchill to Mussolini: “If Italy deemed it appropriate to carry out an operation in Greece, Great Britain would not oppose it”!

"How Churchill hindered the arming of Greece by sending weapons to “neutral” Turkey!"

The Right Hand Salute - A Timeless European Tradition

 

"Oath of the Horatii"

by

 Jacques-Louis David (1784)

The Story Behind the Artwork

Jacques-Louis David’s "Oath of the Horatii" is a defining masterpiece of Neoclassical art, capturing the moment of heroic commitment to duty and sacrifice. The painting portrays three brothers, the Horatii, solemnly swearing allegiance to their father and their city, vowing to defend Rome against Alba Longa. The powerful narrative juxtaposes the stoic determination of the men with the emotional grief of the women, who foresee the personal toll of this noble act. David's masterpiece became a symbol of patriotism and civic virtue during the tumultuous years leading to the French Revolution.

Symbolism and Details

The Roman Salute:

The outstretched arms of the Horatii are a striking display of the Roman salute, symbolizing unwavering loyalty and submission to the ideals of the Republic. This gesture, with its origins in ancient Roman customs, became a visual shorthand for collective unity, civic responsibility, and the prioritization of the state above personal desires.

The Three Brothers:

Their rigid, geometric forms emphasize unity, strength, and resolve, embodying the ideals of sacrifice for the greater good.

The Father’s Gesture:

The elder Horatius holds the swords aloft, symbolizing authority, duty, and the transmission of responsibility.

The Grieving Women:

The emotional figures contrast sharply with the men, representing the personal cost of war, loss, and sacrifice.

The Architecture:

The Roman-inspired arches frame the scene, evoking the grandeur and order of classical antiquity, emphasizing themes of civic duty and loyalty.

The Aryan Explorer of the Past

 "Many breeds of beasts I slaughtered, I fed greedy Fortune with murders, and I met many cities of the Underworld. I returned home in a bitter state with a heavy share of fortune and inevitable death. I managed to see my parents, friends and relatives. And now, I, Tillovoros, am buried in my beloved fatherland. The wife of Tillovoros Markiani built this tomb in memory of her husband"

Parcifal - The Mystical Final Act of Richard Wagner

13th of January 1882

 Richard Wagner completes his final opera "Parsifal"

Parsifal is an opera in three acts composed by Richard Wagner with a libretto by the composer himself. It premiered on July 26, 1882, at the Bayreuth Festspielhaus, the theater Wagner designed specifically for his works. The opera is Wagner’s final completed composition and is often considered one of his most profound and spiritual works.

Story Overview:

The opera is based on medieval legends of the Holy Grail and the Arthurian knight Parsifal (Percival). It explores themes of redemption, compassion, and spiritual enlightenment.

Act 1:

 • In the forest near the Grail Castle, the knights of the Holy Grail suffer due to their king Amfortas’s wound, inflicted by his failure to resist the temptress Kundry.

 • Parsifal, a young and naive knight, appears, ignorant of his origins and destiny.

 • He is brought to the Grail Castle, where the sacred relics are kept, but fails to understand their significance.

Act 2:

 • At the castle of Klingsor, a magician who opposes the Grail knights, Kundry attempts to seduce Parsifal.

 • Parsifal resists her, realizing the suffering caused by desire and sin.

 • He defeats Klingsor and takes the sacred spear, which can heal Amfortas.

Act 3:

 • Years later, Parsifal returns to the Grail Castle, now in despair due to Amfortas’s worsening condition.

 • Parsifal uses the spear to heal Amfortas and becomes the new guardian of the Holy Grail.

 • The opera concludes with a vision of spiritual redemption.

Musical Significance:

“Parsifal” is noted for its profound and meditative music, with themes such as the “Dresden Amen” and the Grail leitmotif woven throughout. Wagner referred to it as a “stage-consecrating festival play” (Bühnenweihfestspiel), reflecting its unique status in his oeuvre.

Legacy:

The work has inspired intense devotion and controversy due to its religious and philosophical content. Its performances were restricted to Bayreuth for many years, honoring Wagner’s wishes.
