Decosahexaenoic Acid (DHA)

If you’re like most people, you’ve probably spent the last decade counting your fat grams because of studies that linked a high-fat diet to an increased risk of heart disease and cancer. But in your zeal to eat right, you may have eliminated some good fats in the process, notably decosahexaenoic acid (DHA), an essential fatty acid that cannot be manufactured by the body. DHA is found in foods that many people have given up in the name of good health, such as organ meats (which are high in both saturated fat and toxins) and eggs (which may be too high in cholesterol for people with lipid problems). It is also abundant in fatty fish, like salmon, mackerel, sardines, and albacore tuna; why do we need DHA? DHA is found in high concentration in the gray matter of the brain and the retina of the eye. It is also instrumental in the function of brain cell membranes, which are important for the transmission of brain signals.

Praise for the Mother of Us All

You are the cauldron of wisdom,
From which inspiration flows.
You are the broad Earth,
which gives birth to all life.
You are the circling Moon,
ruling the tides of oceans and women.
You are the endless night sky,
filled with numberless stars.
You are a grove of birth trees,
shining in the forest deeps.
You are the Mother of us all,
and we look to you in wonder and awe.

Asherah

by Dr Anthony E. Smart

 
Asherah was a goddess popular with the ancient Israelites, despite their priests’ call to remain loyal to Yahweh. Biblical prophets condemn her repeatedly under the name Ashtoreth; it is the use of this name, a seeming combination of Asherah and Astarte, which has caused so much confusion for modern scholars.

Fianna

by Amy M. Durante

Also known as the Champions of the Red Branch, Fianna Éireann, and the Fenians. The Fianna were a legendary army of Irish warriors serving under the Ard Righ, or “High King”, of Ireland. Many of their exploits are documented throughout the Fenian Cycle which took place circa the 3rd century CE. One of two Celtic classes of fighters, they lived in the borderlands, fighting in large groups. They obeyed only their own laws and those of the High King. Their last and greatest leader was Finn mac Cumhail, also know as Finn mac Cool, who was later glorified as an Irish hero.
