Happy Feast Day Saint Edward the Confessor 1003-1066 Feast Day: October 13 Patronage: difficult marriages, separated spouses, English royal family. Kings.
Saint Edward the Confessor was England’s first Anglo-Saxon and only King to be canonized. This beloved King regained his throne at 40 in which during his reign there was almost an unbroken peace. He repulsed invasions, helped restore the King of Scotland’s throne, was generous to the poor, had a deep piety, purity, and love for God. His touch had the power to heal. St. Peter’s Church at Westminster Abby was built during his reign. He’s represented holding a ring he once offered to St. John disguised as a beggar. In 1163, St. Thomas Becket interred his incorrupt body to Westminster Abbey. {website}

We can hope, and isn't that what faith is all about?
___
JOKE-OGRAPHY: The verse being summarized here is about Jesus separating the good people from the bad at the final judgment.  The good people (represented by the sheep) are welcomed into Heaven, while the bad (represented by the goats) are told to depart.  Father Mark reads the scripture in class, but the little girl, Agnes, thinks the story is saying that Heaven is only for sheep, and not actual humans.  Maybe she's right.  This would not be funny.

omg soldier, poet, king is NOT a Christian worship song
folks on tiktok being like YALL DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS ABOUT JESUS??? and "better take it off my dnd playlist now!!!"
it's not about jesus holy fuck, i mean, it is, but it isn't.
Dear Wormwood is a concept album that uses biblical symbolism to talk about an abusive relationship. The Oh Hellos have a whole ass THING about retelling stories (biblical, mythological etc) to use to deal with your own story which is like...a whole thing in storytelling anyway (the new testament is a monomyth yall, Hero's Journey 1.0, in that regard everything is biblical)
Dear Wormwood is put in the context of someone writing letters (inspired by The Screwtape Letters, CS Lewis) to their abuser. "Soldier, Poet, King" is from the perspective of the protagonist, on the receiving end of the abuse, who (after the song "Exeunt") is escaping from the abuse and attempting to continue their life outside of it. The person who is the soldier, poet, king, is the protagonist. "your city" is the abusive relationship. "Wormwood" is the devil of this person's life.
If you look on Genius, yeah the story is about the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. In context? It's about the Second Coming of the protagonist. The rebirth they get after escaping.
The ending song of the album, "Thus Always to Tyrants", the last line of the album is
Where I go, will you still follow? Will you leave your shaded hollow? Will you greet the daylight looming? Learn to love without consuming?
The protagonist is attempting to mentally escape from the abuse, worried about carrying the trauma into the next relationship.
Soldier Poet King is not about Jesus. It's about fighting. It's about escaping the cycle of abuse. It's about the power that resides in stories, about people who have experienced this before and succeeded. It's about using those stories and learning from them.
Keep the shit on your dnd playlist, it's sort of the whole point.

Silos's pharmacy.
In the ancient Abbey of Saint Dominic of Silos, the old pharmacy has been preserved to these days. In old times, it had a botanic garden, a pharmaceutical laboratory, a very interesting library and hundreds of earthenware pots for potions and remedies.
More information about the Abbey here (EN):
The monastery dates back to the Visigothic period of the 7th century. In the 10th century, the abbey was called San Sebastián de Silos, but acquired its current name when Dominic of Silos was entrusted to renovate the abbey by Fernando the Great, King of Castile and León. Dominic had been prior of the Monasteries of San Millán de la Cogolla before being driven out with two of his fellow monks by King García Sánchez III of Navarre, for opposing the king's intention to annex the monastery's lands.
Ps. Thanks to all the people who has reblogged and liked this post. 😊
