A Seer in Albion

Comments

[this is good]
Great Read! Thanks for posting!
Whats strange about this post is that I have been reading some William Blake, helping my brother with a school paper. The Visions of the Daughters of Albion. What I found out about Albion, in Ptolemy, Alouion, was the ancient name of Great Britain or England's major Island and the outlying islands were called Britannae. Sometimes it refers to Scotland, whose name in Gaelic is Alba and in Irish, and Yr Alban in Welsh. Great Britain originated with the Picts, a people present in Britain before the Celts. The name Albion was taken by medieval writers from Pliny and Ptolemy.

The name is of Celtic origin, and in Welsh elfydd "earth, world" Albiorix means "World King" or "King of the World" from the Proto-Ingo-European root that denotes both "White" and "mountain", But the Romans took the word and connected it with albus (white). In reference to the chalk "White Cliffs of Dover", and Alfred Holder's Alt-Keltischer Sprachschatz (1896) unhesitatingly translates it Weissland ("white-land"). People have totally misrepresented things. Its not about being white on outside. Its about being WHITE LIGHT on inside. Not the color of your skin. That has gotten confused with Hitlers idea of an Aryan Utopia. Its not suppose to be White man's Mountain or White man's land.
