The New york City World`s Fair logo 1939 - very exterrestrial - speaking of that, here is Edginolf
thanking me for going to the trouble of posting his crop circle photos for him:

Every year the LAST formation always has been a wonderful one. And also - as I've noticed - the formations on or around the 12th of August are something special.

As I've said: The formation of the night of August 12th is a special one: (Renne will post these two pictures for us, thx.)

Is this by Leonardo Da Vinci? "La Bella Principessa" - it`s a controversy!

Re: the new Michaelangelo, the faces look more like Granacci`s work.

By Gallego - St. Bartolomew and St. John. I could tell it was St. John

by the serpents in the cup, this is the first time I`ve seen more than one snake in the chalice.

This is from the Ciudad Rodrigo, Spain altarpiece that now resides in Tucson, Arizona

at the University Art Museum.

Sorry Renne, I've had a look for it but no luck. I'm sure you are aware that the scallop is normally associated with pilgrims, and quite often Santiago de Compostela. It looks lovely though !

Really? It's usually described as an Ox.

An ox is a castrated male.

not necessarily so FS, an ox can be any sex of cow, the only difference is the ox works for a living, and also a cow can be either sex.

In more recent times the distinction has been blurred. In modern dictionaries (Webster's and OED) the castrated male bovine is still definition #2.

In older dictionaries, Webster's 1913 for instance, the definition is:
Webster's 1913 wrote:
The male of bovine quadrupeds, especially the domestic animal when castrated and grown to its full size, or nearly so.

It goes on to say:
Webster's 1913 wrote:
The word is also applied, as a general name, to any species of bovine animals, male and female.

But further explains:
Webster's 1913 wrote:
Note: The castrated male is called a steer until it attains its full growth, and then, an ox; but if castrated somewhat late in life, it is called a stag. The male, not castrated, is called a bull. These distinctions are well established in regard to domestic animals of this genus. When wild animals of this kind are spoken of, ox is often applied both to the male and the female. The name ox is never applied to the individual cow, or female, of the domestic kind. Oxen may comprehend both the male and the female.

So, at one time, the term "ox" was not applied to domestic female cows.

In this case the archaic meaning (the castrated male) is the more important since the "ox and ass" of the Nativity scene is a very old tradition. The pair was first introduced by "Pseudo Matthew" in the 8th Century referencing Isaiah 1:3 "The ox knows his owner, and the ass his master's crib".

Roger, please splain to me why the castrated bull falls within the divine feminine agenda (this should be interesting)
