It's the Aphelion today, the time of the year when the Earth is furthest from the Sun. It usually falls the day before - American Independence Day - however with this being a leap year, an extra day has been slotted in, thus shifting the man-made calendar.
It was also today that Prince William received the Order of the Thistle from HM the Queen in Edinburgh, just after 11am. Hopefully the reader recalls that William was born by Cesarean on the summer solstice during an eclipse, thus the Sun temporarily obscured. Hopefully the reader sees the connection in terms of the Hermetic dictum - "as above, so below". Certainly it looks like others do.
Don't want to go too much about his award, details are on wikipedia. As usual, there is a sketchy history which no one seems to know too much about. For sure, back on 29th May 1687 when King James 7th of Scotland, 2nd of England, re-founded it, he claimed he was reviving an earlier order, although no one seemed to take a note.
cheers
Note - 29th May is also Oak Apple Day . In 1660, Parliament declared it a holiday to commemorate the restoration of the English monarchy. Also see my post from 2009 - Arthur's Treat, relating to 28 musically minded military personnel from the Royal Regiment of Scotland, posing on top of Arthur's Seat whilst Prince Harry layed a wreath in the Big Apple's Ground Zero

HEY SPACEMAN,
THIS IS JUST MASONIC/DRUIDIC STYLE SORCERY/MAGIC AGAIN... THE THISTLE WAS USED TO MAKE MAGIC WANDS OR WALKING STICK/STAFFS.....A VIRILITY SYMBOL AND USED FOR WARDING OFF MAGICAL ATTACK......THE WHITE FEATHER PLUMES THAT ARE "THISTLE TUFTS" ARE ASSOCIATED WITH "LUCIFERIC ENLIGHTENMENT"....HE IS GETTING TRAINED UP TO BE HEAD WARLOCK...THEY ARE ALL DRESSED AS THISTLES WITH GREEN CAPES AND WHITE TUFTS. THIS IS ALL ABOUT MAGICAL PROTECTION .ALSO DID YOU SEE KATE/DIANA AT THE JUBILEE ALL IN SCARLET?....HE IS GETTING READY TO IMPREGNATE HER IS MY BET.
REGARDS
OH YEH.....THE THISTLE TUFTS TURN WHITE WHEN THEY HAVE "SEEDED"
KEEP ON KEEPING AN EYE ON THESE LOONS!
REGARDS.
I really get a lot out of your blog postings. It would be great if you could set-up an email notification so I can get notified whenever you post. Like acceleration1111 has. I come over from there.
Spaceman, great job as usual.
I was reading up on the "honor" yesterday and what struck me is that the man in the drawing (with the rays coming from his head) also looks to be hauling around a cross.
Very interesting. To talk about St Andrew, the earliest Greek Orthodox icons depict the saint holding a large cross, similar to the drawing here.
Walking around the streets of a mediterranean town one day, where those little streets shoot off with wonderful views at every turning, i noticed a palm tree in bloom......why did i think 'a giant thistle' at that moment.
The palm tree by the sea with the mythological bennu bird.
Seems that there's more to the thistle.....? The knowledge of the return of the sea/waves (reincarnation / Greek Goddess Rhea)
[Note, Rhea often symbolised similar to Cybele - on a throne flanked by two lions or on a chariot drawn by two lions]
Scottish palm trees ? - rarer than hen's teeth !
The thistle is an able substitute.

Hiya subliminal, thanks, it appears to be druidic sorcery. You know a "loon" is "scots" for a boy, or do you mean loonies - as in moon/lunar ?
Anon - thanks, I will try to do that e mail think after I answer this but I a not that PC literate.
Jeff and ..said.. : The cross is rthe St Andrew's Cross or saltire. It is used on many flags. The story is that St. Andrew refused to be crucified on a cross like that of Jesus and demanded an x shaped one. Others would say that it depicts the Roman letter X, or 10, and is related to pharoah akenhaton or amen-ra. He was the one one who brought monotheism to Egypt.
Anon 2 - thanks, the thistle also reminds me of a purple crown. Bennu = phoenix, I get where you are coming from. Palm trees, well there are some on the West Coast, do a google, honestly !
cheers
hiya Anon, I think if you scroll down to the bottom of the page there is a subscribe to posts option. Let me know if that is not what you mean re "e mail notification".
Note heavy flooding in Edinburgh today, Holyrood (the Royal Palace/ Arthur's Seat) badly hit.
cheers
