Constantine II of Greece Born: June 2, 1940, Psychiko, Greece Physique: Average Build Height: 5′9″ (1.75 m)

Constantine II reigned as the last King of Greece, from 6 March 1964 until the abolition of the Greek monarchy on 1 June 1973. After spending World War II in exile in South Africa, Constantine returned to Greece in 1946. When his father became King Paul I in 1947, Constantine became crown prince; he succeeded to the throne upon his father’s death on March 6, 1964. When a military coup forestalled the election he was planning for that year, he  immediately fled to Rome with his family. The military regime retained control of the monarchy and appointed a regent in Constantine’s place, granting the king a free return if he so desired. On June 1, 1973, the military regime ruling Greece proclaimed a republic and abolished the Greek monarchy. A referendum on July 29, 1973, confirmed these actions. Constantine, who had protested the vote of 1973, accepted the result.

The former king is married with five children, enjoys classical music (opera and ballet), spending time with his grandchildren and re-visiting favorite places in Greece with his family. He's also a former competitive sailor and Olympian, winning a gold medal in the 1960 Rome Olympics in the Dragon class. Personally I think he is cute (and interesting) and if he wants to experience man on man sex, I am more than willing to help make that dream a reality for him. I'm nice like that.

Psychics

Hello! Today we’re going to be talking about psychics and psychic abilities. Please note this is just a quick overview and there are plenty of books that go more in-depth.

What is a Psychic?

The word "psychic" is derived from the Greek word psychikos ("of the mind" or "mental"), and refers in part to the human mind or psyche (ex. "psychic turmoil"). The Greek word also means "soul". In Greek mythology, the maiden Psyche was the deification of the human soul. The word derivation of the Latin psȳchē is from the Greek psȳchḗ, literally "breath", derivative of psȳ́chein, to breathe or to blow (hence, to live).

A psychic is a person who claims to use extrasensory perception (ESP) to identify information hidden from the normal senses, particularly involving telepathy or clairvoyance, or who performs acts that are apparently inexplicable by natural laws, such as psychokinesis or teleportation. Although many people believe in psychic abilities, the scientific consensus is that there is no proof of the existence of such powers, and describes the practice as pseudoscience. The word "psychic" is also used as an adjective to describe such abilities. Psychics have a natural ability—which can be trained and developed—to "read" the energy surrounding an individual, object, or space, living or inanimate. Just as there are those born with an incredible talent for sports or mathematics, there are others born with an incredible talent to tap into the unseen.

How long have Psychics been around?

French astronomer and spiritualist Camille Flammarion is credited as having first used the word psychic, while it was later introduced to the English language by Edward William Cox in the 1870s.

Elaborate systems of divination and fortune-telling date back to ancient times. Perhaps the most widely known system of early civilization fortune-telling was astrology, where practitioners believed the relative positions of celestial bodies could lend insight into people's lives and even predict their future circumstances. Some fortune-tellers were said to be able to make predictions without the use of these elaborate systems (or in conjunction with them), through some sort of direct apprehension or vision of the future. These people were known as seers or prophets, and in later times as clairvoyants (French word meaning "clear sight" or "clear seeing") and psychics.

Spirit communication became widely banned and stigmatized during the spread of Christianity in the 13th century; religious leaders claimed that psychics were in commune with the devil. Indigenous beliefs and practices were cast out by colonists in the 16th century, and many cultures were forced to follow institutionalized religion. However, certain figures also rose to worldwide popularity—one being Nostradamus who famously made some seriously sizable predictions.

Spiritualism grew in the mid-19th century. Throughout this era, followers held public demonstrations where psychics connected with the spirit world, delivering messages to the audience, messages that confirmed their loved one's presence in the afterlife and held valuable information to help the querent. These days, psychics are allowed to practice openly, and it is not uncommon that your friends, family member, or colleague consults with a psychic regularly. Famous psychics in popular culture include John Henry, Theresa Caputo, Sylvia Brown, and James Van Praagh. They appear on talk shows, write best-selling books, make appearances, and perform public readings to packed auditoriums.

Psychic Abilities

Psychic abilities are better described more so as senses. There are 7 known psychic senses: Clairvoyance (clear seeing), clairsentience (clear feeling), clairaudience (clear hearing), claircognizance (clear knowing), clairscent (clear smelling), clairgustance (clear tasting), and clairtangency (clear touching). Many psychics may have more than just one psychic sense and some may have several.

First of all I wish to all a Very Happy 2022

I m sorry that this last month I didn’t post anything but I had some health issues but now I’m finally ok so I’ll will begin 2022 with the

84th anniversary of the wedding of HM King Paul of Hellenes Prince of Denmark and HM Queen Frederica of Hellenes Princess of Denmark Hanover, Great Britain Ireland,and Brunswick-Lüneburg

In the 9th of January 1938 in Athens Greece where King Paul was at the time HRH Crown Prince Paul of Greece Prince of Denmark.

Paul was born on 14 December 1901 at Tatoi Palace in Athens, the third son of King Constantine I of Greece and his wife, Princess Sophia of Prussia. He trained as an army officer at the Royal Military College, Sandhurst and later at the Hellenic Military Academy in Kypseli, Athens. Paul was an army officer cadet in the Coldstream Guards and Lieutenant with the Evzones.

From 1917 to 1920, Paul lived in exile with his father, Constantine I. From 1923 to 1935, he lived in exile again in England, this time with his brother, George II. He worked briefly in an aircraft factory under an alias, and through Viscount Tredegar met and befriended notorious literary muse Denham Fouts, who later alleged an affair.However, Fouts's friend John B. L. Goodwin said Fouts often made up stories about his life,and literary critic Katherine Bucknell thought many of the tales about him were myths.

To his family, he was known as Palo.

Born Her Royal Highness Friederike, Princess of Hanover, Princess of Great Britain and Ireland, and Princess of Brunswick-Lüneburg on 18 April 1917 in Blankenburg am Harz, in the German Duchy of Brunswick, she was the only daughter and third child of Ernest Augustus, then reigning Duke of Brunswick, and his wife Princess Viktoria Luise of Prussia, herself the only daughter of the German Emperor Wilhelm II. Both her father and maternal grandfather abdicated their thrones in November 1918 following Germany's defeat in World War I, and her paternal grandfather was stripped of his British royal dukedom the following year. As a descendant of Queen Victoria, she was, at birth, 64th in the line of succession to the British throne.

In 1934, Adolf Hitler, in his ambition to link the British and German royal houses, asked for Frederica's parents to arrange for the marriage of their seventeen-year-old daughter to the Prince of Wales. In her memoirs, Frederica's mother described that she and her husband were "shattered" and such a possibility "had never entered our minds".Victoria Louise herself had once been considered as a potential bride for the very same person prior to her marriage. Moreover, the age difference was too great (the Prince of Wales was twenty-three years Frederica's senior), and her parents were unwilling to "put any such pressure" on their daughter.

To her family, she was known as Freddie.

Prince Paul of Greece proposed to her during the summer of 1936, while he was in Berlin attending the 1936 Summer Olympics. Paul was a son of King Constantine I and Frederica's great aunt Sophia. Accordingly, they were maternal first cousins once removed. They were also paternal second cousins as great-grandchildren of Christian IX of Denmark. Their engagement was announced officially on 28 September 1937.

They married in Athens on 9 January 1938. Frederica became Hereditary Princess of Greece, her husband being heir presumptive to his childless elder brother, King George II.

During the early part of their marriage, they resided at a villa in Psychiko in the suburbs of Athens. Ten months after their marriage, their first child, the future Queen Sofia of Spain, was born on 2 November 1938. On 2 June 1940, Frederica gave birth to the future King Constantine II.

In 1936, a major event brought together Greece and Germany on a world stage: the Summer Olympics. Held in Berlin, the event was used as propaganda by Hitler’s regime. For the first time, a torch relay was staged between Athens and the host city, and royals like King George II, Crown Prince Paul, King Peter of Yugoslavia, and King Boris of Bulgaria were included in the spectacle. Paul arrived in Berlin in July 1936 and attended the opening ceremony of the games. While in Germany, 34-year-old Crown Prince Paul proposed marriage to 19-year-old Princess Friederike, who was his cousin twice over (first cousins, once removed on their maternal German line, second cousins on their paternal Danish line). She accepted.

The couple’s official engagement announcement was delayed by a year. Greece was in the midst of yet another political upheaval. As Paul was proposing in Germany, his brother and Prime Minister Metaxas were busy installing a totalitarian regime back in Greece, suspending parliament and ushering in a wave of cultural, social, and economic controls. Before publicly announcing their betrothal, Crown Prince Paul also represented his family at the coronation of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth in May 1937 in London. In August, the restless press reported that Paul was secretly engaged — to a wealthy 22-year-old Greek commoner, Catherine Koumandarou. (She vehemently denied the reports. “It isn’t true, any of it,” she told the Associated Press. “It simply didn’t happen. I don’t even know the prince well. I have met him a few times on social occasions, but we certainly have never even talked alone; there is absolutely nothing more than that.”)

In September 1937, Paul flew from Athens to Vienna to join Friederike and her family at their hunting lodge, Schloss Cumberland, in Gmunden. They were there to celebrate their engagement, which was officially announced from Athens on September 29. “A picturesque hunting chalet high in the Upper Austrian Alps houses to-night two happy young people,” one British paper reported breathlessly. In their official engagement portraits, Friederike wore the Prussian Tiara, a gift from her mother, and a diamond necklace.

In November 1937, the wedding date was officially set for January 9, 1938. Because Friederike was born a British princess, and was subject to the Royal Marriages Act of 1772, she had to have permission from King George VI of the United Kingdom to go forward with her marriage. On the day after Christmas 1937, King George convened a fifteen-minute privy council meeting at Sandringham, where the royal family had gathered to celebrate the holiday. In the presence of the Duke of Gloucester, the Duke of Kent, and the Earl of Athlone, the king gave his formal assent to the marriage. The Duke of Kent and his Greek royal wife, Princess Marina, were tapped to officially represent the British royal family at the wedding in Athens. They arrived in the Greek capital on January 7, greeted at the train station by King George II and Prime Minister Metaxas.

As holiday celebrations wound down across Europe, more royals began to gather in Athens for the nuptials. One prince had a particularly harrowing trip to Greece. Crown Prince Michael of Romania, a nephew of Crown Prince Paul, boarded a destroyer, the Queen Maria, in Constanza to sail to Athens. Fifty miles into their journey across the Black Sea, the ship encountered a sudden and terrible winter storm, which left the destroyer floating helplessly without power. The Associated Press reported that “huge waves and chunks of ice broke” over the ship’s decks, breaking a mast, damaging the rudder, and knocking out the radio. A general alarm was raised about the future of the Romanian throne when the ship sent out a distress call. Sixteen-year-old Michael reportedly handled the situation quite bravely, even trying to convince the crew to allow him to help as they worked to save the ship. Ultimately, the future monarch and his entourage shivered in darkness for 36 hours while they waited for another ship to come to their aid. When Michael returned to Constanza, he admitted to his father, King Carol, that he’d been terrified by the entire ordeal, but he quickly boarded a train that took him on to Bucharest and then Athens in time for his uncle’s wedding.

Crown Prince Michael wasn’t the only royal who arrived somewhat emotionally battered for the wedding. Prince Andrew of Greece and Denmark, Crown Prince Paul’s uncle, flew to Athens from Rome for the wedding with his son, Prince Philip, and two of his daughters, Princesses Margarita and Theodora. Six weeks before, the family had buried their daughter and sister, Princess Cecilie, who had died with several members of the Hesse family when their airplane had tragically crashed in Belgium. Prince Nicholas of Greece and Denmark, Andrew’s brother, had represented the royal family at the funeral in Germany. (No one could have known at this point that Nicholas’s days were also short. He died suddenly of a heart attack a month after Paul and Friederike’s wedding.)

In Greece, however, the mood was ebullient ahead of their new princess’s arrival. In Austria, Princess Friederike and her parents and brothers had boarded a special train to Athens which took them through numerous Greek towns and villages along the way. Newspapers reported that “scenes of enthusiasm” greeted the bride all along the way to her new home. In Athens, the train station was decorated elaborately in blue and white, Greece’s national colors, and the streets were festooned with flags and colorful lights. Crown Prince Paul had traveled to the Greek border with Yugoslavia to meet his fiancee aboard the train and travel with her to the capital. The snowstorms that nearly sank Crown Prince Michael delayed the train journey in Macedonia, too, putting them hours behind schedule. But crowds were still present in the freezing cold on January 7, 1938, to cheer the arrival of the train, which was pulled by a bright white engine with the letters P and F emblazoned in gold. As Paul and Friederike stepped on to the platform, a 21-gun salute was fired from Mount Lycabettus.

A whirlwind of celebratory events engulfed the couple as they arrived in Athens. A glittering state dinner was held on the night of Friday, January 7, followed by a second gala dinner and theater performance on Saturday evening. Members of both families had descended on Athens for the festivities. The Greek royal contingent included Crown Prince Paul’s sisters, Princesses Helen, Irene, and Katherine, as well as his nephew and niece, Crown Prince Michael of Romania and Princess Alexandra of Greece. Greek uncles and aunts in attendance included Prince George and Princess Marie (with their children, Princess Peter and Princess Eugenie), the aforementioned-Prince Andrew and his children, and Prince and Princess Nicholas (with their daughters, Princesses Olga, Elizabeth, and Marina, and their husbands, Prince Regent Paul of Yugoslavia, Count Carl Theodor of Toerring-Jettenbach, and the Duke of Kent, respectively). Grand Duke Dmitri Pavlovich, one of Paul’s cousins, was there as well. 

The German royal party included Friederike’s parents and brothers, as well as her Prussian uncles, Prince Oskar and Prince August Wilhelm, and her Hanoverian uncles and aunts, the Grand Duke and Grand Duchess of Mecklenburg-Schwerin and the Dowager Margravine of Baden. Berthold, the Margrave of Baden, was there as well; he was married to Crown Prince Paul’s cousin, Princess Theodora of Greece and Denmark. Princes Wilhelm and Hubertus of Prussia were there, too. Two more of her cousins, Princess Cecilie and Princess Herzeleide of Prussia, were among her bridesmaids. (Of course, all of these guests were related to both the bride and groom.) The Danish representatives included Prince Axel, Prince Knud, and Princess Caroline-Mathilde.

On the day of the wedding, Princess Friederike dressed in a gown fit for the grandest ’30s-era bride. The Observer reported that the gown, “made in Munich, is of simple cut, accentuating the beauty of the material, a shimmering silver lame. The eighteen-foot train is ornamented with a circle of applique flowers, also in lame, and is bordered with a roll of self-material which outlines the V neck of the gown and falls away over the shoulders. The sleeves are full length to the wrist.” Her bridal bouquet, a spray of orange blossoms, was a gift from her grandfather, Kaiser Wilhelm, who sent them from the orangery at Doorn. Tucked inside was a sprig of myrtle brought specially from Queen Victoria’s myrtle bush at Osborne House in England for her by the Duchess of Kent.

On her head, Friederike wore her mother’s long lace veil, which was secured with a diamond tiara that had belonged to her late mother-in-law, Queen Sophie of Greece. She also wore the small diamond Hanoverian nuptial crown, which belonged to Queen Charlotte of the United Kingdom and was returned to the Hanoverian royals by Queen Victoria after she lost a legal suit. Friederike’s other bridal jewels included a cross on a long chain and the diamond necklace she wore in her engagement portraits. She also wore the star and sash of the Royal Family Order of Saints Olga and Sophia, which had been created in 1936 by King George II in memory of Queen Olga and Queen Sophie.

It was pouring rain and sleet on the morning of Sunday, January 9, as the guests arrived at the Metropolitan Cathedral in Athens for the first of the couple’s two wedding ceremonies. Newsreel cameras captured the guests, including the Duke and Duchess of Kent and Prince Paul and Princess Olga, hurrying from their cars into the cathedral.

Following Greek Orthodox tradition, they were married by the Archbishop of Athens, who was supported by dozens of bishops in gold and white robes. The couple stood beneath traditional Greek Orthodox wedding crowns during the ceremony, which were held by the groom’s supporters: his uncle, Prince George of Greece and Denmark; his cousin, Grand Duke Dmitri Pavlovich; his nephew, Crown Prince Michael; his cousins, Prince Peter and Prince Philip; and Friederike’s brothers. The crowns were the same ones used at the wedding of Paul’s parents. Friederike was supported by four pink-gowned bridesmaids: her new sister-in-law, Princess Katherine of Greece and Denmark; her husband’s cousin, Princess Eugenie of Greece and Denmark; and two of her German cousins, Princess Cecilie and Princess Herzeleide of Prussia. Paul and Friederike exchanged gold wedding rings made from melted down coins dating to the reign of Alexander the Great.

After the ceremony had finished, Paul and Friederike rode through the rain-soaked streets back to the palace, cheered on by Athenians who had braved the cold, wet weather to see the newlywed couple in person. Back at the palace, the couple had a second, Lutheran wedding ceremony and signed the civil registration

After the wedding, the couple settled in their new villa at Psychiko, a wedding gift from the Greek government. They spent a month-long honeymoon abroad. In November 1938, they welcomed their first child: a daughter who later became Queen Sofia of Spain. Two more children, King Constantine II of Greece and Princess Irene of Greece and Denmark, followed after her. The couple reigned as King and Queen of the Hellenes from 1947 until Paul’s death in1964.

Πρώτα από όλα εύχομαι σε όλους Καλό και Ευτυχισμένο 2022

Λυπάμαι που αυτόν τον τελευταίο μήνα δεν δημοσίευσα τίποτα, αλλά είχα κάποια προβλήματα υγείας, αλλά τώρα είμαι επιτέλους καλά, οπότε θα ξεκινήσω το 2022 με την

84η επέτειο του γάμου της Α.Μ. Βασιλιά Παύλου των Ελλήνων Πρίγκιπα της Δανίας και της ΑΜ Βασίλισσα Φρειδερίκης των Ελλήνων Πριγκίπισσα της Δανίας του Ανόβερου, της Μεγάλης Βρετανίας Ιρλανδίας και του Brunswick-Lüneburg

Στις 9 Ιανουαρίου 1938 στην Αθήνα, όπου τότε ο Βασιλιάς Παύλος ήταν Η ΑΒΥ Παύλος Πριγκιπας Διάδοχος της Ελλάδος Πρίγκιπας της Δανίας.

Ο Παύλος γεννήθηκε στις 14 Δεκεμβρίου 1901 στα Ανάκτορα Τατοΐου στην Αθήνα, τρίτος γιος του βασιλιά Κωνσταντίνου Α΄ της Ελλάδας και της συζύγου του, πριγκίπισσας Σοφίας της Πρωσίας. Εκπαιδεύτηκε ως αξιωματικός στρατού στο Βασιλικό Στρατιωτικό Κολλέγιο του Σάντχερστ και αργότερα στην Ελληνική Στρατιωτική Ακαδημία στην Κυψέλη της Αθήνας. Ο Παύλος ήταν δόκιμος αξιωματικός του στρατού στις Φρουρές Coldstream και Υπολοχαγός στους Εύζωνες.

Από το 1917 έως το 1920, ο Παύλος έζησε εξόριστος με τον πατέρα του, Κωνσταντίνο Α'. Από το 1923 έως το 1935, έζησε ξανά εξόριστος στην Αγγλία, αυτή τη φορά με τον αδελφό του, Γεώργιο Β'. Εργάστηκε για λίγο σε ένα εργοστάσιο αεροσκαφών με ψευδώνυμο και μέσω του Viscount Tredegar γνώρισε και έγινε φίλος με τη διαβόητη λογοτεχνική μούσα Denham Fouts, η οποία αργότερα ισχυρίστηκε ότι ειχαν σχέση.Ωστόσο, ο φίλος της Fouts John BL Goodwin είπε ότι η Fouts συχνά έφτιαχνε ιστορίες για τη ζωή της η κριτικός λογοτεχνίας Η Κάθριν Μπάκνελ πίστευε ότι πολλές από τις ιστορίες για την Fouts ήταν μύθοι.

Στην οικογένειά του, ο Πριγκιπας Παυλος ήταν γνωστός ως Πάλο.

Η ΑΒΥ , Πριγκίπισσα Φρειδερικη του Ανόβερου, Πριγκίπισσα της Μεγάλης Βρετανίας , Ιρλανδίας και του Brunswick-Lüneburg γεννήθηκε στις 18 Απριλίου 1917 στο Blankenburg am Harz, στο γερμανικό Δουκάτο του Brunswick, ήταν η μοναδική κόρη και το τρίτο παιδί του Ernest Augustus. , ο τότε βασιλεύων δούκας του Μπράνσγουικ και η σύζυγός του, πριγκίπισσα Βικτώρια Λουίζα της Πρωσίας, η ίδια η μόνη κόρη του Γερμανού αυτοκράτορα Γουλιέλμου Β'. Τόσο ο πατέρας όσο και ο παππούς της από τη μητέρα της παραιτήθηκαν από τους ��ρόνους τους τον Νοέμβριο του 1918 μετά την ήττα της Γερμανίας στον Α' Παγκόσμιο Πόλεμο και ο παππούς της από τον πατέρα της αφαιρέθηκε το βρετανικό βασιλικό δουκάτο του το επόμενο έτος. Ως απόγονος της βασίλισσας Βικτώριας, ήταν, κατά τη γέννηση, 64η στη σειρά διαδοχής του βρετανικού θρόνου.

Το 1934, ο Αδόλφος Χίτλερ, στη φιλοδοξία του να συνδέσει τον βρετανικό και τον γερμανικό βασιλικό οίκο, ζήτησε από τους γονείς της Φρειδερίκης να κανονίσουν τον γάμο της δεκαεπτάχρονης κόρης τους με τον Πρίγκιπα της Ουαλίας Εδουάρδο που αργότερα αφησε τον Βρετανικό Θρόνο για να παντρεύτει την Γουολις Σίμσον

Στα απομνημονεύματά της, η μητέρα της Φρειδερικης περιέγραψε ότι αυτή και ο σύζυγός της ήταν "θρυμματισμένοι" και ότι μια τέτοια πιθανότητα "δεν είχε μπει ποτέ στο μυαλό μας". Η ίδια η Βικτόρια Λουίζα κάποτε θεωρούνταν πιθανή νύφη για το ίδιο άτομο πριν από τον γάμο της. Επιπλέον, η διαφορά ηλικίας ήταν πολύ μεγάλη (ο πρίγκιπας της Ουαλίας ήταν είκοσι τρία χρόνια μεγαλύτερος της Φρειδερίκης) και οι γονείς της δεν ήταν πρόθυμοι να «ασκήσουν τέτοια πίεση» στην κόρη τους.

Στην οικογένειά της, ήταν γνωστή ως Freddie.

Ο πρίγκιπας Παύλος της Ελλάδας της έκανε πρόταση γάμου το καλοκαίρι του 1936, ενώ βρισκόταν στο Βερολίνο για να παρακολουθήσει τους Θερινούς Ολυμπιακούς Αγώνες του 1936. Ο Παύλος ήταν γιος του βασιλιά Κωνσταντίνου Α' και της μεγάλης θείας της Φρειδερίκης Σοφίας. Ως εκ τούτου, ήταν πρώτα ξαδέρφια με την μητέρα της . Ήταν επίσης πατρικά δεύτερα ξαδέρφια ως δισέγγονα του Christian IX της Δανίας. Ο αρραβώνας τους ανακοινώθηκε επίσημα στις 28 Σεπτεμβρίου 1937 Παντρεύτηκαν στην Αθήνα στις 9 Ιανουαρίου 1938. Η Φρειδερίκη έγινε Πριγκίπισσα Διαδόχου της Ελλάδας, με Διαδοχο τον σύζυγό της υποτίθεται στον άτεκνο μεγαλύτερο αδερφό του, τον βασιλιά Γεώργιο Β'.

Στα πρώτα χρόνια του γάμου τους διέμεναν σε μια βίλα στο Ψυχικό στα προάστια της Αθήνας γνωστή ως Βιλα Φρειδερικη Δέκα μήνες μετά τον γάμο τους, το πρώτο τους παιδί, η μελλοντική βασίλισσα Σοφία της Ισπανίας, γεννήθηκε στις 2 Νοεμβρίου 1938. Στις 2 Ιουνίου 1940, η Φρειδερίκη γέννησε τον μελλοντικό βασιλιά Κωνσταντίνο Β'.

Το 1936, ένα σημαντικό γεγονός έφερε κοντά την Ελλάδα και τη Γερμανία σε μια παγκόσμια σκηνή: οι Θερινοί Ολυμπιακοί Αγώνες. Πραγματοποιήθηκαν στο Βερολίνο, η εκδήλωση χρησιμοποιήθηκε ως προπαγάνδα από το καθεστώς του Χίτλερ. Για πρώτη φορά έγινε λαμπαδηδρομία μεταξύ της Αθήνας και της διοργανώτριας πόλης και μέλη της βασιλικής οικογένειας όπως ο Βασιλιάς Γεώργιος Β', ο διάδοχος του θρόνου Παύλος, ο βασιλιάς Πέτρος της Γιουγκοσλαβίας και ο βασιλιάς Μπόρις της Βουλγαρίας συμπεριλήφθηκαν στο θέαμα. Ο Παύλος έφτασε στο Βερολίνο τον Ιούλιο του 1936 και παρακολούθησε την τελετή έναρξης των αγώνων. Ενώ βρισκόταν στη Γερμανία, ο 34χρονος διάδοχος Παύλος πρότεινε γάμο στη 19χρονη πριγκίπισσα Φρειδερικη , η οποία ήταν ανιψια του από τη μητρική γερμανική γραμμή, δεύτερα ξαδέρφια από την πατρική δανική γραμμή. Εκείνη δέχτηκε.

Η επίσημη ανακοίνωση του αρραβώνα του ζευγαριού καθυστέρησε κατά ένα χρόνο. Η Ελλάδα βρισκόταν στη μέση μιας ακόμη πολιτικής αναταραχής. Καθώς ο Παύλος έκανε την πρόταση γάμου στη Γερμανία, ο αδελφός του και ο Πρωθυπουργός Μεταξάς ήταν απασχολημένοι με την εγκατάσταση ενός ολοκληρωτικού καθεστώτος πίσω στην Ελλάδα, αναστέλλοντας το κοινοβούλιο και εγκαινιάζοντας ένα κύμα πολιτιστικών, κοινωνικών και οικονομικών ελέγχων. Πριν ανακοινώσει δημόσια τον αρραβώνα τους, ο διάδοχος Παύλος εκπροσώπησε επίσης την οικογένειά του στη στέψη του Βασιλιά Γεωργίου ΣΤ' και της Βασίλισσας Ελισάβετ τον Μάιο του 1937 στο Λονδίνο. Τον Αύγουστο, ο ανήσυχος Τύπος ανέφερε ότι ο Παύλος ήταν κρυφά αρραβωνιασμένος — με μια πλούσια 22χρονη Ελληνίδα , την Αικατερίνη Κουμαντάρου. (Αρνήθηκε κατηγορηματικά τις αναφορές. "Δεν είναι αλήθεια, τίποτα από όλα αυτά", είπε στο Associated Press. "Απλώς δεν συνέβη. Δεν ξέρω καν τον πρίγκιπα καλά. Τον έχω συναντήσει μερικές φορές σε κοινωνικές περιστάσεις, αλλά σίγουρα δεν έχουμε μιλήσει ποτέ μόνοι μας· δεν υπάρχει απολύτως τίποτα περισσότερο από αυτό.)

Τον Σεπτέμβριο του 1937, ο Παύλος πέταξε από την Αθήνα στη Βιέννη για να βρεθεί με τη Φρειδερικη και την οικογένειά της στο κυνηγετικό τους καταφύγιο, Schloss Cumberland, στο Gmunden. Ήταν εκεί για να γιορτάσουν τον αρραβώνα τους, ο οποίος ανακοινώθηκε επίσημα από την Αθήνα στις 29 Σεπτεμβρίου. «Ένα γραφικό κυνηγετικό σαλέ ψηλά στις Άνω Αυστριακές Άλπεις φιλοξενεί απόψε δύο χαρούμενους νέους», ανέφερε μια βρετανική εφημερίδα με κομμένη την ανάσα. Στα επίσημα πορτρέτα του αρραβώνα τους, η Φρειδερικη φορούσε την Πρωσική Τιάρα, δώρο από τη μητέρα της, και ένα διαμαντένιο κολιέ.

Τον Νοέμβριο του 1937, η ημερομηνία του γάμου ορίστηκε επίσημα για τις 9 Ιανουαρίου 1938. Επειδή η Φρειδερικη γεννήθηκε ως Βρετανίδα πριγκίπισσα και υπόκειται στον νόμο περί βασιλικών γάμων του 1772, έπρεπε να έχει άδεια από τον βασιλιά Γεωργίου Στ’ Ηνωμένου Βασιλείου για να προχωρησει με τον γάμο της. Την επομένη των Χριστουγέννων του 1937, ο Βασιλιάς Γεώργιος συγκάλεσε μια δεκαπεντάλεπτη μυστική συνεδρίαση του συμβουλίου στο Sandringham, όπου η βασιλική οικογένεια είχε συγκεντρωθεί για να γιορτάσει τις διακοπές. Παρουσία του Δούκα του Γκλόστερ, του Δούκα του Κεντ και του κόμη του Άθλον, ο βασιλιάς έδωσε την επίσημη συγκατάθεσή του στον γάμο. Ο δούκας του Κεντ και η Ελληνίδα βασιλική σύζυγός του, πριγκίπισσα Μαρίνα, επιλέχθηκαν να εκπροσωπήσουν επίσημα τη βρετανική βασιλική οικογένεια στον γάμο στην Αθήνα. Έφτασαν στην ελληνική πρωτεύουσα στις 7 Ιανουαρίου, ενώ στο σιδηροδρομικό σταθμό τους υποδέχτηκαν ο βασιλιάς Γεώργιος Β' και ο πρωθυπουργός Μεταξάς.

Καθώς οι γιορτές σταματούσαν σε όλη την Ευρώπη, περισσότεροι Εστεμμένοι άρχισαν να συγκεντρώνονται στην Αθήνα για τους γάμους. Ένας πρίγκιπας είχε ένα ιδιαίτερα οδυνηρό ταξίδι στην Ελλάδα. Ο διάδοχος της Ρουμανίας Μιχαήλ, ανιψιός του διαδόχου Παύλου, επιβιβάστηκε σε ένα αντιτορπιλικό, το Queen Maria, στην Κωνστάντζα για να πλεύσει στην Αθήνα. Πενήντα μίλια μετά το ταξίδι τους στη Μαύρη Θάλασσα, το πλοίο συνάντησε μια ξαφνική και τρομερή χειμερινή καταιγίδα, η οποία άφησε το αντιτορπιλικό να επιπλέει αβοήθητο χωρίς ρεύμα. Το Associated Press ανέφερε ότι «τεράστια κύματα και κομμάτια πάγου έσπασαν» πάνω από τα καταστρώματα του πλοίου, έσπασαν έναν ιστό, προκάλεσαν ζημιά στο πηδάλιο και χτυπώντας το ραδιόφωνο. Ένας γενικός συναγερμός σήμανε για το μέλλον του ρουμανικού θρόνου όταν το πλοίο έστειλε κλήση κινδύνου. Ο δεκαεξάχρονος Μιχάηλ φέρεται να χειρίστηκε την κατάσταση αρκετά γενναία, προσπαθώντας μάλιστα να πείσει το πλήρωμα να του επιτρέψει να βοηθήσει καθώς προσπαθούσαν να σώσουν το πλοίο. Τελικά, ο μελλοντικός μονάρχης και η συνοδεία του έτρεμαν στο σκοτάδι για 36 ώρες ενώ περίμεναν ένα άλλο πλοίο να έρθει να τους βοηθήσει. Όταν ο Μιχαήλ επέστρεψε στην Κωνστάντζα, παραδέχτηκε στον πατέρα του, Βασιλιά Κάρολο , ότι είχε τρομοκρατηθεί από όλη τη δοκιμασία, αλλά γρήγορα επιβιβάστηκε σε ένα τρένο που τον μετέφερε στο Βουκουρέστι και μετά στην Αθήνα εγκαίρως για τον γάμο του θείου του.

Ο διάδοχος του θρόνου Μιχάηλ δεν ήταν ο μόνος βασιλιάς που έφτασε κάπως συναισθηματικά χτυπημένος για τον γάμο. Ο πρίγκιπας Ανδρέας της Ελλάδας και της Δανίας, θείος του διαδόχου Παύλου, πέταξε στην Αθήνα από τη Ρώμη για τον γάμο ,με τον γιο του, πρίγκιπα Φίλιππο, και τις δύο από τις κόρες του, τις πριγκίπισσες Μαργαρίτα και Θεοδώρα. Έξι εβδομάδες πριν, η οικογένεια είχε θάψει την κόρη και την αδερφή της, την πριγκίπισσα Κεκελια , η οποία είχε πεθάνει με πολλά μέλη της οικογένειας της Έσσης όταν το αεροπλάνο τους συνετρίβη τραγικά στο Βέλγιο. Ο πρίγκιπας Νικόλαος της Ελλάδας και της Δανίας, ο αδερφός του Ανδρέα, είχε εκπροσωπήσει τη βασιλική οικογένεια στην κηδεία στη Γερμανία. (Κανείς δεν μπορούσε να ξέρει σε αυτό το σημείο ότι οι μέρες του Νικόλαου ήταν επίσης σύντομες.

Πέθανε ξαφνικά από καρδιακή προσβολή ένα μήνα μετά τον γάμο του Παύλου και της Φρειδερίκης.)

Στην Ελλάδα, ωστόσο, η διάθεση ήταν σε έξαρση πριν από τον ερχομό της νέας τους πριγκίπισσας. Στην Αυστρία, η πριγκίπισσα Φρειδερικη και οι γονείς και τα αδέρφια της είχαν επιβιβαστεί σε ένα ειδικό τρένο για την Αθήνα, το οποίο τους μετέφερε σε πολλές ελληνικές πόλεις και χωριά στη διαδρομή. Οι εφημερίδες ανέφεραν ότι «σκηνές ενθουσιασμού» υποδέχτηκαν τη νύφη σε όλη τη διαδρομή προς το νέο της σπίτι. Στην Αθήνα, ο σιδηροδρομικός σταθμός ήταν περίτεχνα διακοσμημένος με μπλε και άσπρο, τα εθνικά χρώματα της Ελλάδας, και οι δρόμοι ήταν στολισμένοι με σημαίες και πολύχρωμα φώτα. Ο διάδοχος Παύλος είχε ταξιδέψει στα ελληνικά σύνορα με τη Γιουγκοσλαβία για να συναντήσει την αρραβωνιαστικιά του στο τρένο και να ταξιδέψει μαζί της στην πρωτεύουσα. Οι χιονοθύελλες που παραλίγο να βυθίσουν τον διάδοχο του θρόνου Μιχαήλ καθυστέρησαν το ταξίδι με το τρένο και στη Μακεδονία, με αποτέλεσμα να καθυστερήσουν ώρες. Αλλά τα πλήθη ήταν ακόμα παρόντα στο παγωμένο κρύο στις 7 Ιανουαρίου 1938, για να επευφημήσουν την άφιξη του τρένου, το οποίο το έσερνε μια φωτεινή λευκή μηχανή με τα γράμματα Π και Φ με χρυσό. Καθώς ο Παύλος και η Φρειδερικη ανέβηκαν στην εξέδρα, ένας χαιρετισμός με 21 όπλα εκτοξεύτηκε από το όρος Λυκαβηττό.

Στρόβιλος εορταστικών εκδηλώσεων κατέκλυσε το ζευγάρι κατά την άφιξή του στην Αθήνα. Ένα λαμπερό κρατικό δείπνο πραγματοποιήθηκε το βράδυ της Παρασκευής 7 Ιανουαρίου και ακολούθησε δεύτερο εορταστικό δείπνο και θεατρική παράσταση το βράδυ του Σαββάτου. Μέλη και των δύο οικογενειών είχαν κατέβει στην Αθήνα για τις γιορτές. Η Ελληνικη Βασιλική απόσπασμα περιελάμβανε τις αδερφές του διαδόχου Παύλου, τις πριγκίπισσες Ελένη, Ειρήνη και Αικατερίνη, καθώς και τον ανιψιό και την ανιψιά του, διάδοχο Μιχαήλ της Ρουμανίας και την πριγκίπισσα Αλεξάνδρα της Ελλάδας και Δανιας μετέπειτα Βασίλισσα Αλεξάνδρα της Γιουγκοσλαβίας

Οι Έλληνες θείοι και θείες που παρευρέθηκαν περιελάμβαναν τον Πρίγκιπα Γεώργιο και την Πριγκίπισσα Μαρία (με τα παιδιά τους, την ΠριγκίπαΠέτρο και την Πριγκίπισσα Ευγενία), τον προαναφερθέντα Πρίγκιπα Ανδρέα και τα παιδιά του και τον Πρίγκιπα και την Πριγκίπισσα Νικόλαου (με τις κόρες τους, τις πριγκίπισσες Όλγα, Ελισάβετ και Μαρίνα , και τους συζύγους τους, τον πρίγκιπα Αντιβασιλέα Παύλο της Γιουγκοσλαβίας, τον κόμη Καρλ Θεόδωρο του Toerring-Jettenbach και τον Δούκα του Κεντ, αντίστοιχα). Ο μεγάλος δούκας Ντμίτρι Πάβλοβιτς, ένας από τους ξαδέρφους του Παύλου, ήταν επίσης εκεί.

Η Γερμανική Βασιλική οικογένεια περιελάμβανε τους γονείς και τα αδέρφια της Φρειδερικης , καθώς και τους Πρώσους θείους της, τον πρίγκιπα Όσκαρ και τον πρίγκιπα August Wilhelm, και τους θείους και θείες της από το Αννόβερο, τον Μέγα Δούκα και τη Μεγάλη Δούκισσα του Mecklenburg-Schwerin και την Dowager Margravine of Baden. Ο Μπέρθολντ, ο Μαργράβος του Μπάντεν, ήταν επίσης εκεί. Ήταν παντρεμένος με την ξαδέρφη του διαδόχου Παύλου, την πριγκίπισσα Θεοδώρα της Ελλάδας και της Δανίας. Οι πρίγκιπες Wilhelm και Hubertus της Πρωσίας ήταν επίσης εκεί. Δύο ακόμη ξαδέρφια της, η πριγκίπισσα Σεσίλι και η πριγκίπισσα Ερζελεΐδα της Πρωσίας, ήταν μεταξύ των παρανυμφών της. (Φυσικά, όλοι αυτοί οι καλεσμένοι είχαν σχέση και με τη νύφη και τον γαμπρό.) Οι Δανοί εκπρόσωποι περιλάμβαναν τον Πρίγκιπα Άξελ, τον Πρίγκιπα Κνουντ και την Πριγκίπισσα Καρολάιν-Ματθίλδη.

Την ημέρα του γάμου, η πριγκίπισσα Φρειδερικη ντύθηκε με ένα φόρεμα που ταιριάζει στην πιο μεγαλειώδη νύφη της δεκαετίας του '30. Το Observer ανέφερε ότι το φόρεμα, «κατασκευασμένο στο Μόναχο, είναι απλής κοπής, τονίζοντας την ομορφιά του υλικού, ένα αστραφτερό ασημί κεντημα Η ουρά του 5 μισι μέτρων είναι διακοσμημένο με έναν κύκλο απλικέ λουλουδιών, επίσης λαμέ, και οριοθετείται με ένα ρολό από υλικό που σκιαγραφεί τον λαιμό V και πέφτει πάνω από τους ώμους. Τα μανίκια είναι μέχρι τον καρπό». Η νυφική ​​της ανθοδέσμη, από άνθη πορτοκαλιάς, ήταν δώρο από τον παππού της, Κάιζερ Γουλιέλμος , ο οποίος τους τα έστειλε από το πορτοκαλί στο Ντόρν. Κρυμμένο μέσα ήταν ένα κλαδάκι μυρτιάς που έφερε ειδικά από τον θάμνο μυρτιάς της Βασίλισσας Βικτώριας στο Osborne House στην Αγγλία για εκείνη η Δούκισσα του Κεντ.

Στο κεφάλι της, η Φρειδερικη φορούσε το μακρύ δαντελένιο πέπλο της μητέρας της, το οποίο ήταν ασφαλισμένο με μια διαμαντένια τιάρα που ανήκε στην αείμνηστη πεθερά της, βασίλισσα Σοφία της Ελλάδας. Φόρεσε επίσης το μικρό διαμαντένιο στέμμα του γάμου του Ανόβερου, το οποίο ανήκε στη βασίλισσα Σάρλοτ του Ηνωμένου Βασιλείου και επιστράφηκε στα βασιλικά του Ανόβερου από τη βασίλισσα Βικτώρια αφού έχασε μια νομική αγωγή. Τα άλλα νυφικά κοσμήματα της Φρειδερικης περιελάμβαναν έναν σταυρό σε μια μακριά αλυσίδα και το διαμαντένιο κολιέ που φορούσε στα πορτρέτα του αρραβώνα της. Φορούσε επίσης το αστέρι και το φύλλο του του Βασιλικού Οικογενειακού Τάγματος των Αγίων Όλγας και Σοφίας, το οποίο είχε δημιουργηθεί το 1936 από τον Βασιλιά Γεώργιο Β' στη μνήμη της βασίλισσας Όλγας και της βασίλισσας Σοφίας.

Το πρωί της Κυριακής 9 Ιανουαρίου έπεφτε καταρρακτώδης βροχή και χιονόνερο, καθώς οι καλεσμένοι έφτασαν στον Μητροπολιτικό Καθεδρικό Ναό στην Αθήνα για την πρώτη από τις δύο γαμήλιες τελετές του ζευγαριού. Οι κάμερες του Newsreel απαθανάτισαν τους καλεσμένους, μεταξύ των οποίων ο Δούκας και η Δούκισσα του Κεντ και ο Πρίγκιπας Παύλος και η Πριγκίπισσα Όλγα, να βιάζονται από τα αυτοκίνητά τους στον καθεδρικό ναό.

Ακολουθώντας την ελληνορθόδοξη παράδοση, παντρεύτηκαν από τον Αρχιεπίσκοπο Αθηνών, τον οποίο συμπαραστάθηκαν δεκάδες επίσκοποι με χρυσά και λευκά άμφια. Το ζευγάρι στάθηκε κάτω από τα παραδοσιακά Βασιλικά Στέμματα των ελληνορθόδοξων γάμων κατά τη διάρκεια της τελετής, κρατούσαν εναλλάξ οι κουμπαροι του γαμπρού: ο θείος του, Πρίγκιπας Γεώργιος της Ελλάδας και της Δανίας. ο ξάδερφός του, Μέγας Δούκας Ντμίτρι Πάβλοβιτς· ο ανιψιός του, ο διάδοχος του θρόνου Μιχαήλ· τα ξαδέρφια του, ο πρίγκιπας Πέτρος και ο πρίγκιπας Φίλιππος. και τα αδέρφια της Φρειδερικης . Τα Στέμματα ήταν τα ίδια που χρησιμοποιήθηκαν στον γάμο των γονιών του Παύλου. Η Φρειδερικη υποστηρίχθηκε από τέσσερις παράνυμφους: τη νέα της κουνιάδα, την πριγκίπισσα Αικατερινη της Ελλάδας και της Δανίας. η ξαδέρφη του συζύγου της, η πριγκίπισσα Ευγενία της Ελλάδας και της Δανίας· και δύο από τις γερμανίδες ξαδέρφες της, την πριγκίπισσα Cecilie και την πριγκίπισσα Herzeleide της Πρωσίας. Ο Παύλος και η Φρειδερίκη αντάλλαξαν χρυσές βέρες από λιωμένα νομίσματα που χρονολογούνται από τη βασιλεία του Μεγάλου Αλεξάνδρου.

Αφού τελείωσε η τελετή, ο Παύλος και η Φρειδερίκη διέσχισαν τους βροχερούς δρόμους και επέστρεψαν στο παλάτι, επευφημούμενοι από Αθηναίους που είχαν αντέξει τον κρύο, υγρό καιρό για να δουν το νεόνυμφο ζευγάρι από κοντά. Πίσω στο παλάτι, το ζευγάρι έκανε μια δεύτερη, Λουθηρανική γαμήλια τελετή και υπέγραψε στον ληξίαρχο.

Μετά το γάμο, το ζευγάρι εγκαταστάθηκε στη νέα του βίλα στο Ψυχικό, ένα γαμήλιο δώρο από την ελληνική κυβέρνηση. Πέρασαν ένα μήνα του μέλιτος στο εξωτερικό. Τον Νοέμβριο του 1938, καλωσόρισαν το πρώτο τους παιδί: μια κόρη που αργότερα έγινε βασίλισσα Σοφία της Ισπανίας. Ακολούθησαν άλλα δύο παιδιά, ο βασιλιάς της Ελλάδας Κωνσταντίνος Β' και η πριγκίπισσα Ειρήνη της Ελλάδας και της Δανίας. Το ζευγάρι βασίλεψε ως Βασιλιάς και Βασίλισσα των Ελλήνων από το 1947 μέχρι το θάνατο του Παύλου το 1964.

Historical References in What Are You Going to Do With Your Life - Chapters 10-12

Chapter 10

Boleyn mumbles something about a priest. W. S. Pakenham-Walsh (1868 - 1960), Vicar of Sulgrave, Northhamptonshire, had a strong interest in Anne Boleyn. He claimed to have a series of spiritual experiences after praying at Boleyn’s burial site, and contacted clairvoyants to channel her spirit in the hopes she might become his guardian angel. He also claimed in his diary that he had contact with Henry VIII and other notable members of the Tudor court.

While witchcraft was often punished via the death penalty, Henry VIII made the law explicit in 1542 (though it was later repealed no later than 1547, under Edward VI). Several witchcraft laws were made in the UK over the years, in 1563, 1604, 1649 and 1735. These were all repealed and replaced with more general consumer protection laws, and the last person to be indicted for witchcraft (under the 1735 act) was imprisoned in 1944.

Tarot was a regular set of cards for most of its history, used in various, but similar, trick-taking card card games. It became associated with ancient wisdom in 1781, when Antoine Court de Gébelin wrote an essay claiming (with no evidence) that ancient Egyptian priests had distilled the mystical Book of Thoth into the cards.

“Psychic is Greek, and clairvoyant is French. One is about thinking, and the other is about seeing.” Psychic comes from the Greek word psychikos (‘of the mind’) and clairvoyance is a combination of two French words (‘clear’ and ‘vision’). Catherine of Aragon was known to speak both French and Greek, as well as Latin, her native Spanish, and English.

Cunning man (or woman) was another word for folk healers.

In 1532, Catherine Parr’s brother-in-law from her second marriage, William Neville, was accused of treason for allegedly predicting the king’s death and his own ascension as Earl of Warwick (a title made extinct during the Wars of the Roses, but would be recreated in 1547 and twice after that). He went to at least three magicians to confirm this prediction, all of which agreed that it was meant to be true (it wasn’t). One of these magicians was Richard Jones of Oxford, who was imprisoned and questioned on the matter. He did his best to exonerate himself of responsibility. I have found five references confirming his existence – but many of them claim he had a sceptre he used to ‘summon the four king devils’, which he used for divination purposes.

Chapter 11

Jones of Oxford was taken in for questioning as part of the Neville affair, and he did his best in his confession to exonerate himself. Neville’s claims of a prophetic dream showing himself as Earl of Warwick were now a “fair castle” which Neville assumed must be the castle of Warwick, and a shield with “sundry arms I could not rehearse”. He did admit to writing “a foolish letter or two according to [Neville’s] foolish desire, to make pastime to laugh at”. No treason, just jokes, please don’t execute me Thomas Cromwell. Jones claimed to take his alchemy seriously, however, and wrote that “To make the philosopher’s stone I will jeopard my life, so to do it,” if the king so wished. He would require twelve months “upon silver” and twelve and a half “upon gold”, and was willing to be imprisoned while he worked. Jones made a similar offer to Cromwell, but there is no evidence either man accepted. Jones was released in exchange for revealing incriminating evidence against another figure of interest. The other magicians caught up in this incident, William Wade and a man known only as ‘Nashe’, had perfected their disappearing act and were not sent to the Tower.

There is a story that Elizabeth I attributed the destruction of the Spanish armada in 1588 to John Dee’s wizardry. Given that, as mentioned, Dee was out of favour with Elizabeth at the time, this is likely untrue.

Elizabeth I’s death was in March of 1603, after she became sick and remained in a “settled and unmovable melancholy”, sitting on a cushion and staring at nothing. The death of a close friend in February of that year came as a particular blow – that of her second cousin and First Lady of the Bedchamber, Catherine Howard.

James I (or James VI, depending on where you’re from)… James I of England was also James VI of Scotland. His mother was Mary Queen of Scots, who was executed by Elizabeth I, and his great-grandmother was Margaret Tudor, Henry VIII’s sister.

“Anna, born Duchess of Jülich, Cleves and Berg.” This was how Anna signed hers’ and Henry’s marriage treaty, known as the ‘Beer Pot Documents’, because someone drew a stein at the bottom.

Bowling, as a game, can trace its origins back to ancient Egypt, and has been quite popular the world over throughout history. Henry VIII was an avid bowler himself (when Hampton Court was remodelled, bowling alleys were included with tennis courts and tiltyards), but banned the sport for the lower classes. The law against workers bowling (unless it was Christmas and in their master’s presence) was repealed in 1845.

We return to the ground, because from it we were taken. Paraphrasing of Genesis 3:19.

The (possible) first appearance of the word ‘alligator’ in the English language is from Romeo and Juliet. The description of The Apothecary’s shop mentions “a tortoise hung, an alligator stuff’d, and other skins of ill-shaped fishes”. Traditionally, medieval apothecaries and astrologers kept skeletons, fossils, and/or taxidermied pieces on display to demonstrate their worldliness.

The anger over calling the alligator ‘William’ could come from Parr, or from Anna. Her brother’s name, Wilhelm, is often anglicised as William.

Midsomer county does not exist and never has. It’s the setting for the long-running mystery TV show Midsomer Murders. Incidentally, Catherine Parr’s native county of Westmorland existed at one point, but no longer does (the area is now in the county of Cumbria). She is not the only English-born queen who this applies to; Jane Seymour’s Wiltshire and Anne Boleyn’s Norfolk still exist (and have since antiquity), but Katherine Howard was most likely born in Lambeth, which would have been in the county of Middlesex at the time. The area is now under the ceremonial county of Greater London.

“Honestly? Margaret Pole’s was worse.” Margaret Pole, Countess of Sailsbury and the last of the House of York, was kept in the Tower of London for two and a half years for her supposed support of Catholicism’s attempts to overthrow the king, before being informed of her death ‘within the hour’ on the 27th of May, 1541. She answered that she did not know the crime of which she was accused (and had carved a poem into the wall of her cell to that effect), but went to the block anyway. It allegedly took eleven blows from the inexperienced axeman to separate her head from her body. There is another story that she tried to run from the executioner and was killed in the attempt, but this is likely a fabrication. Regardless, pretty much everyone thought this was not only a bad idea on Henry’s part (killing Margaret removed any leverage the king had on her rebellious son, Cardinal Reginald Pole), it was also pointlessly cruel and a painfully undignified end.

(She was also Catherine of Aragon’s lady-in-waiting, and governess to Mary at several points.)

That everyone around her, bar a few visitors, would actively benefit from her death… Yet another quote of Elizabeth Tyrwhitt’s testimony: Parr, on her deathbed, claimed she was “not well-handled” by those around her; “for those that be about me careth not for me, but standeth laughing at my grief, and the more good I will to them, the less good they will to me”.

Chapter 12

According to a lady-in-waiting, Anne Boleyn claimed she would rather see Catherine of Aragon hanged “than have to confess that she was her queen and mistress”. This incident is probably the origin of the lyric “somebody hang you!” from Don’t Lose Ur Head.

Catalina uses a few Spanish phrases in this chapter, which don’t get directly translated. The first, No se hizo la miel para la boca del asno, directly translates to ‘Honey is not made for the donkey’s mouth’, and essentially means ‘Good things shouldn’t be wasted on those who won’t appreciate them’. Lavar cerdos con jabón es perder tiempo y jabón is ‘Washing pigs with soap is a waste of time and soap’, and is meant to indicate some things aren’t worth the energy.

…like that dream she has where she is cut up by a servant… An autopsy was done on Catherine of Aragon as part of the embalming process, which revealed the growth on her heart. This was done by the castle chandler (a dealer or trader) as part of his official duties.

Jane Seymour got rid of most of the hallmarks of Anne Boleyn’s tenure during her own queenship. The extravagance and lavish entertainments were banned, along with the French fashions Boleyn had introduced – including French hoods, which Boleyn is wearing in the portrait we have of her. Jane, as mentioned, wore a gable hood in her portraits.

“I don’t know why I’m so surprised that people care about what I say.” In the words of nineteenth century proto-feminist Agnes Strickland, Jane “passed eighteen months of regal life without uttering a sentence significant enough to warrant preservation”, which is kind of a mean thing to say. Seymour certainly said things during this time, we know this from reports, but there aren’t any direct quotes from her during her time as queen.

Here’s the painting mentioned, from 1545, during Catherine Parr’s tenure. Jane is on Henry’s left.

It was only after her death that Henry ‘loved’ her, but she is certain that he mourned for only for his own loss. There are reports that, during Jane’s labour, doctors advised Henry he might lose either Jane or Edward. Henry is claimed to have replied, “If you cannot save both, at least let the child live, for other wives are easily found.”

Countdown is a British television game show that revolves around word and number puzzles. It has been going for almost forty years, and is one of the longest-running game shows in the world, with over 7000 episodes.

“I saw a ghost bear kill someone, once.” Anne isn’t making this up. Supposedly, the incident occurred in 1816, when a Yeoman Warder saw a ghostly bear somewhere in the Tower of London. Terrified, he tried to stab it with his bayonet, only for the weapon to go through the image and strike the door behind it. The guard died of shock later on. A similar event happened in 1864, where two guards witnessed “a whitish, female figure” gliding towards one of the soldiers. The soldier in question charged this figure, only to go straight through it, upon which he fainted.

Elizabeth was imprisoned in the Tower of London for a little over two months in 1554, as a result of Wyatt’s Rebellion against Queen Mary. The rebellion was also the likely reason for the execution of Lady Jane Grey – both she and Elizabeth were Protestants in line for the throne, and therefore ‘more suitable’ as ruler. Both Elizabeth and Jane Grey denied any involvement, but the latter’s father and brother (also executed) were direct contributors.

“… you did die, Elizabeth was really upset about it…” Elizabeth took the news of Parr’s death badly. She refused to leave her bed, and was unable to go a mile from her residence, for five months following Parr’s passing.

Not because she liked that bearded potato man, God no… I found this deeply cursed engraving (first produced in 1544) in one of my books on the six wives, and now I want you all to suffer with me.

Anne of Cleves reacted poorly to being told her marriage would be annulled – some accounts say she fainted, others says she cried and screamed. Both could be true. The reasons given were threefold – One, the marriage was unconsummated (From testimony given by two servants, Anne thought a kiss goodnight counted as consummation – likely untrue, but this is the only reason that actually has merit). Two, Anne was precontracted to Francis of Lorraine (Untrue – the betrothal would only take effect if Anne’s father paid the dowry, and he didn’t). Three, Anne was not a virgin as claimed, based on the description of her ‘breasts and belly’, a Tudor way of saying Anne had previously given birth (untrue, and conflicts with the testimony for reason one). The annulment went through without Anne’s involvement, but (probably looking at the examples of her three predecessors) she accepted the ruling and kept herself from being banished, beheaded or otherwise.

(Other fact that has no bearing on reality – while researching Anne of Cleves, one of the pages that came up was The Simpsons Wiki. Apparently she’s the only wife who can claim the honour of having been in two episodes. :/)

Dogs don’t need to answer for their sins, they don’t have any. Katherine Howard was reportedly fond of animals in general, but had a particular soft spot for dogs.

She did the right thing. She told the truth. She died for it. Katherine Howard insisted, to the end, that she had no pre-contract of marriage to Francis Dereham. Would she have survived if she said she did?

[sanjosepsychicchakra-blog]

Let's face it: there are a lot of bad psychics out there. Or more precisely, many bad people disguised as psychics.

There are those who benefit from the most vulnerable members of our society by not telling them the truth (after all, they make a lot more money by feeding people's fantasies) or by telling lies for the same reason.

The word "psychic" comes from the Greek work psychikos and means "from the mind" or "from the psyche." It does not refer to mind reading or divination or similar hallucinating hall tricks.

Unfortunately, these are popular misconceptions, based on the mockery of the media and the unscrupulous practices of some who use them to make money quickly.

Psychic readings can be hugely valuable as long as you approach them with an open mind and a sound logical sense.

Your session should include some give and take and you will suffer when any of these become unbalanced. If your psychic asks too many questions, you are likely to wonder if the information you provide is "real" or simply a natural assumption based on what you have already revealed. But on the other hand, if you are too closed to commenting on the information you receive, your psychic may not be able to take advantage of the areas of your psyche needed to inform a good read .

Think of the connection you develop to your reader as a conduit for mental information. If there are any interruptions or interruptions in this channel, the connection is shorted causing the incoming information to become distorted or incomplete. There is a danger of sabotaging your own connection (through fear, mistrust or skepticism), although if you approach your session with an objective mind, you will still be open enough to allow the best possible connection.

Don't be put off by my psychic who relies on "tools". The San Jose Psychic Chakra world contains a vast set of collective knowledge that is accessible in many ways. Just as there are many different radios that lead to the same center, there are also many different ways to access the psyche area. A psychiatrist who does not use tools (cards, pictures, numbers, palms, tea leaves or whatever) is not automatically better.

Just as there are guidelines for getting a good psychic reading, there are things to avoid so you don't end up getting a bad read. "Bad" can mean inaccurate, and it can't always be avoided. But there is another kind of evil out there, such as in duplicity, unscrupulous and unethical.

Unfortunately, you can find a lot of it. But the following are some common scams that you should be aware of, especially when reading online, so that both your emotional well-being and your hard-earned money are preserved:

1. Your psychic knows things about you that he or she may not know, not even as a talented reader. Examples include names, locations, exact dates, etc. If your psychic apparently "knows" these things when he has barely said hello, ask yourself if you have shared this information with other readers in other sessions. In this day of computer technology, it is known that unscrupulous psychics share information or even complete transcripts. If you suspect this is the case with your reader, ask him for something he has not shared with another reader.

2. Your psychic is trying to sell you a spell or "cure" to eliminate negative energy. This is one of the most common scams and unfortunately it is very profitable because clients believe that their psychic has special powers. Your psychic cannot eliminate negative energy for you; he or she can only (and should) guide you to empower yourself.

3. Your psychic takes extra time at the beginning of a session to "meditate." While it is reasonable to assume that your psychic may need time to tune in or work with his tools or guides, be wary of those who need several minutes (especially "on the clock"). This may be an indication that your psychic is looking for your personal information or a transcript of a previous session with another psychic.

4. Your psychic uses general statements that may apply to your situation, but can also be applied to countless others. While it is important to see your session as a two-way street (meaning you still need to approach it with an open mind and heart), your psychic must be able to point out certain things that apply directly to your specific inquiry.

5. Your psychic promotes or encourages addiction. He or she asks you to check in daily, to get frequent "cures" or require you to buy more and more updated services. Another common scam to consider is the unsolicited "important information" email provided by your psycheas`

People that have married in to Royal Families since 1800

Greece

Frederica of Hanover born 18 April 1917 and died 6 February 1981

Born Her Royal Highness Princess Frederica of Hanover, of Great Britain and Ireland, and of Brunswick-Lüneburg on 18 April 1917 in Blankenburg am Harz, in the German Duchy of Brunswick, she was the only daughter of Ernest Augustus, then reigning Duke of Brunswick, and his wife Princess Viktoria Luise of Prussia, herself the only daughter of the German Emperor Wilhelm II. Both her father and maternal grandfather would abdicate their crowns in November 1918 following Germany's defeat in World War I, and her paternal grandfather would be stripped of his British royal dukedom the following year. 

As a descendant of Queen Victoria, she was, at birth, 34th in the line of succession to the British throne. In 1934, Adolf Hitler, in his ambition to link the British and German royal houses, asked for Frederica's parents to arrange for the marriage of their seventeen-year-old daughter to the Prince of Wales. In her memoirs, Frederica's mother described that she and her husband were "shattered" and such a possibility "had never entered our minds". Victoria Louise herself had once been considered as a potential bride for the very same person prior to her marriage. Moreover, the age difference was too great (the Prince of Wales was twenty-two years Frederica's senior), and her parents were unwilling to "put any such pressure" on their daughter.

Prince Paul of Greece, her mother's paternal first cousin, proposed to her during the summer of 1936, while he was in Berlin attending the 1936 Summer Olympics. Paul was a son of King Constantine I and Frederica's grand-aunt Sophia. Their engagement was announced officially on 28 September 1937, and Britain's King George VI gave his consent pursuant to the Royal Marriages Act 1772 on 26 December 1937. They married in Athens on 9 January 1938. Frederica became Hereditary Princess of Greece, her husband being heir presumptive to his childless elder brother, King George II. During the early part of their marriage, they resided at a Villa in Psychiko in the suburbs of Athens. Ten months after their marriage, their first child, the future Queen Sofia of Spain, was born on 2 November 1938. On 2 June 1940, Frederica gave birth to the future King Constantine II.

At the peak of World War II, in April 1941, the Greek Royal Family was evacuated to Crete in a Sunderland flying boat. Shortly afterwards, the German forces attacked Crete. Frederica and her family were evacuated again, setting up a government-in-exile office in London. In exile, King George II and the rest of the Greek Royal Family settled in South Africa. Here Frederica's last child, Princess Irene, was born on 11 May 1942. The South African leader, General Jan Smuts, served as her godfather. The family eventually settled in Egypt in February 1944. On 1 September 1946, after the war, the Greek people decided by referendum to restore King George to the throne. The Hereditary Prince and Princess returned to their villa in Psychiko.

On 1 April 1947, George II died and Frederica's husband ascended the throne as Paul I, with Frederica as queen consort. Communist political instability in Northern Greece led to the Greek Civil War. The King and Queen toured Northern Greece under severe security to try to appeal for loyalty in the summer of 1947. Queen Frederica was constantly attacked for her German ancestry. Left-wing politicians in Greece repeatedly used the fact that the Kaiser was her grandfather, and that she had brothers who were members of the SS, as propaganda against her. She was also criticized variously as "very Prussian" and "was a Nazi". When she was in London representing her sick husband at the wedding of his first cousin Prince Philip to King George VI's elder daughter Princess Elizabeth in November 1947, Winston Churchill remarked on the Kaiser being her grandfather. Queen Frederica had replied acknowledging the fact, but reminding him that she was also descended from Queen Victoria, and that her father would be the British king if the country had operated under Salic Law (allowing only males to inherit the crown).

During the civil war, Queen Frederica set the Queen's Camps or Child Cities (translation of: Παιδο(υ)πόλεις / Paidopoleis or Paidupoleis) a network of 53 camps around Greece where she would gather mostly orphans and children of poor families. These camps provided much needed shelter, food, and education to these children who were aged 3 years old to adolescence.[The role of these Queen's Camps is disputed as a means of propaganda by the monarchy through the educational program. The Queen's Camps were a way to care for the children who were victims of the civil war. There were allegations, generally by opposition or communist sources, which held that children were illegally adopted by American families while they were in the Queen's Camps.

The Greek Civil War ended in August 1949. The Sovereigns took this opportunity to strengthen the monarchy, they paid official visits to Marshal Josip Broz Tito in Belgrade, Presidents Luigi Einaudi of Italy in Rome, Theodor Heuss of West Germany, and Bechara El Khoury of Lebanon, Emperor Haile Selassie I of Ethiopia, Chakravarthi Rajagopalachari of India, King George VI of the United Kingdom, and the United States as guest of President Dwight D. Eisenhower. 

However, at home in Greece and abroad in the United Kingdom, Queen Frederica was targeted by the opposition, because as a girl she had belonged to the Bund Deutscher Mädel (League of German Girls), a branch of the Hitler Youth group for young women; her supporters argued that evading membership in the group would be difficult under the existing political climate in Nazi Germany at the time. Her 16 November 1953 appearance in Life as America's guest was taken on one of the many state visits she paid around the world. Also that year she appeared on the cover of Time. 

On 14 May 1962 her eldest daughter Sofia married Prince Juan Carlos of Spain, (later King Juan Carlos I of Spain) in Athens. 

Frederika has been described as "inherently undemocratic" She was notorious for her numerous arbitrary and unconstitutional interventions in Greek politics and clashes with democratically elected governments. She actively politicked against the election of Alexander Papagos.At home in Greece and abroad in the United Kingdom, she was targeted by the opposition. In 1963 while visiting London, rioting by Greek leftists demonstrating against the situation with the political prisoners of the Greek civil war, forced her to temporarily seek refuge in a stranger's house. Her interference in politics was harshly criticized and possibly was a significant factor in the strengthening of republican sentiments

On 6 March 1964, King Paul died of cancer. When her son, the new King, married Princess Anne-Marie of Denmark later that year on 18 September, Queen Frederica stepped back from the majority of her public duties in favor of her daughter-in-law. She remained a figure of controversy and was accused in the press of being the éminence grise behind the throne. She retired to the countryside where she lived an almost reclusive life. However, she continued to attend Royal events that were family-oriented, such as the baptisms of her grandchildren in both Spain and Greece.

King Constantine II's clashes with the democratically elected Prime Minister George Papandreou Sr. were blamed by critics for causing the destabilisation that led to a military coup on 21 April 1967 and the rise of the regime of the colonels. Faced with a difficult situation, King Constantine initially collaborated with the military dictatorship, swearing in their government under a royalist prime minister. Later that year he attempted a counter-coup in an attempt to restore democracy, whose failure forced him into exile. Following this, the junta appointed a Regent to carry out the tasks of the exiled Monarch. In 1971, she published an autobiography, A Measure of Understanding. On 1 June 1973 the junta abolished the Greek Monarchy without the consent of the Greek people and then attempted to legitimize its actions through a 1973 plebiscite that was widely suspected of being rigged. The new head-of-state became President of Greece George Papadopoulos. The dictatorship ended on 24 July 1974 and the pre-junta constitutional monarchy was never restored. A plebiscite was held on 8 December 1974 in which Constantine (who was able to campaign only from outside the country) freely admitted his past errors, promised to support democracy, and in particular, promised to keep his mother Frederica away from Greece and out of Greek politics. However, 69% of Greeks voted to make Greece a democratic republic.

Frederica died on 6 February 1981 in exile in Madrid during ophthalmic surgery. In its obituary of the former Queen, The New York Times reported that she died during "eyelid surgery," which led to frequent but unsubstantiated rumours that she died while undergoing cosmetic surgery Other sources state that her cause of death was a heart attack while undergoing the removal of cataracts. She was interred at Tatoi (the Royal family's palace and burial ground in Greece). Her son and his family were allowed to attend the service but had to leave immediately afterwards.

[romancatholicreflections]

4th September >> Daily Reflection/Commentary on Today’s First Reading for Roman Catholics on Tuesday of the Twenty-Second Week in Ordinary Time (1 Corinthians 2:10-16).

Here Paul discusses the true nature of the genuinely spiritual person. And the source of his spirituality is, not surprisingly, the Spirit of God. “The Spirit reaches the depths of everything, even the depths of God.” The Spirit does this not in order to know them better for the Spirit knows all things. Rather, he understands fully the depth of God’s nature and so is fully competent to reveal them to us.

And, just as only an individual person alone knows what is going on in the depths of one’s own heart, so only the depths of God can be known by God’s own Spirit.

What distinguishes the true followers of Christ is that they are not imbued by the spirit of the world around them. The ‘spirit of the world’ is that ‘wisdom of the age’ which is alienated from God and all he stands for. It is the attitude of ‘sinful nature’ as described in the Letter to the Romans (8:6-7). Instead, true followers have received the gift of God’s Spirit which helps us to understand the gifts, the love that is constantly being showered on us.

So Paul’s teaching is not, as he said before, based on philosophical speculations but comes in the way the Spirit communicates, that is, straight to the heart and not just in the mind.

In the verses which follow (including some which are not part of today’s reading) Paul explains why many fail to grasp true wisdom. It is because such wisdom is perceived by the spiritual (i.e. mature) Christian. The Corinthians, however, were unspiritual, worldly (infant) believers (3:1-4), and the proof of their immaturity was their division over their human leaders (3:3-4).

The unspiritual person is described as one who is closed to the working of the Spirit. The Greek term here is psychikos ( a person who depends on his own natural resources, who, in the words of Romans 8:9, follows “mere natural instincts”. This person is dominated by the merely physical, worldly or natural life.

Such a person – and we have surely met him/her often – rejects the Gospel teaching as nonsense. In fact, he does not understand it because understanding only comes through being open to the promptings of the Spirit.

The spiritual person, on the other hand, “is able to judge the value of everything, and his own value is not to be judged by others”. The Spirit gives the follower of Christ deep insights into the meaning of life, it gives him a vision of what is really important. Paul himself, as a ‘spiritual’ man, is not to be judged by the Corinthians who are ‘sensual’ and immature (not yet ready for solid food but only for milk).

Many a truly Spirit-guided person will, as Jesus and Paul were, be frequently criticised. He may be rejected and even removed altogether by exile or death. But, as long as he remains true to the guidance of the Spirit, he does not feel effectively judged by such people.

The Christian must never be arrogant or contemptuous of others; at the same time, he must not fear or hesitate to be in opposition to the conventional wisdom of his environment. In order to make sure of his integrity he must constantly discern the voice and the leading of God in all that he says and does.

Paul ends by asking a question posed by Isaiah: “Who can know the mind of the Lord, so who can teach him?” Paul answers by saying that, while we may not know the mind of God and still less dare to teach him, he does claim that he and many of the baptised “are those who have the mind of Christ”.

To have the “mind of Christ” is to see things the way Jesus sees them, to value things the way he values them, totally to share his vision of the meaning and goal of our lives. What exactly that mind of Christ is can be found in the lovely hymn that Paul quotes in his letter to the Philippians (2:6-11).

Let us pray today that we may be truly spiritual people who share and understand that mind of Christ.

Top 10 Things to Consider Whenever Getting a Email Reading through

Top 10 Things to Consider Whenever Getting a Clairvoyant Reading medium Paris voyante Paris Let's face the item: generally there are a lot regarding bad psychics in existence. Or even more accurately, a whole lot of negative people masquerading as psychics. voyance Paris There usually are those who prey with by far the most vulnerable members regarding our modern society by either failing to find out the real truth (after all, they generate a new lot more money feeding straight into people's fantasies), or perhaps sharing with them outright is placed for the exact same cause. voyance Paris The word "Psychic" comes from the Greek work psychikos and means "of the mind" or "of the psyche. " That refer to mind-reading or fortune telling or similar mind-blowing restaurant tricks. Unfortunately all these are popular myths, centered on media mockery as well as the unscrupulous practices of several who use them to be able to make a rapid dollar. Psychic readings may be tremendously valuable, provided that anyone approach them with both equally a mind and the healthy perception of judgement. Your session should contain some give as well as get, and will suffer if either of these is catagorized from balance. If your own psychic requires too quite a few questions, you're likely for you to problem whether the data you're provided is "real" or is actually a natural presumption based on what you might have already revealed. However upon the other hand if you're too closed-off to present feedback for the details you're receiving, your clairvoyant may not be able to tap into the areas of your psyche which are required to inform any good reading. Imagine typically the connection you're developing along with your reader as a gateway regarding psychic information. In the event that there are breaks as well as disruptions in this conduit, often the connection becomes short-circuited, causing the information that is available in to be distorted or imperfect. There is several danger connected with sabotaging your personal own connection (through dread, mistrust or skepticism), thus while you do wish to approach your session with an objective mind, you continue to want to be open enough for you to allow for the best link. Don't be put away the psychics who be dependent on "tools. " The actual psychic region contains any vast pool connected with connection knowledge which is used in many ways. Simply as there are many different spokes that lead to the same hub, so are there many distinct avenues which to tap into the mind and body sphere. A psychic who does not use tools (cards, chart, numbers, palms, tea-leaves, as well as whatever) isn't quickly much better. Just as there are usually tips for getting a good psychic reading through, generally there are things to steer clear of in order that you don't end upward getting a bad 1. "Bad" can mean wrong that is not always avoidable. But discover another type of bad out presently there - as in duplicitous, unscrupulous as well as unethical. However, you may run into some sort of lot of that. Nevertheless the next are some common scams to consider rapid particularly with on the web blood pressure measurements - so that both your emotional well-being and your hard-earned money are maintained: - Your psychic understands things about you he as well as she couldn't possibly recognize, even as a given reader. Examples include titles, areas, exact dates along with so on. In case your email seemingly "knows" these tips if you've barely explained hi, ask yourself if might distributed this information having other readers in various other sessions. In this moment of computer technology, deceitful psychics have been well-known to share details as well as even complete transcripts. When you suspect this is the actual case along with your reader, consult him or her regarding something you've not distributed to another reader. 2. Your own psychic tries to sell which you spell or "healing" to eliminate negative energy. This is one of the common scams and is sad to say really profitable because buyers are usually led to believe their particular psychic has special capabilities. Your psychic cannot take away negative energy for anyone; they might (and should) solely direct you in re-empowering yourself. three or more. Your psychic requires overtime at the attack of a session in order to "meditate. " While is actually reasonable to assume that your current psychic may require time to tune in or perhaps to work with his / her or her resources or even guides, be wary of people who need several short minutes (especially "on the clock"). This is a indication that your own psychic is looking up your own personal information or getting a transcript from a prior session with another email. 5. Your psychic uses umbrella statements that may possibly apply to your state however can also apply in order to numerous others. Although it can important to as always, see your treatment as a two-way street (meaning that you require to still method this with an open imagination and heart), your email should be able pin-point certain points that apply instantly to your specific research. 5. Your psychic advances or fosters dependency. She or he asks you to check back day-to-day, to get frequent "healings, micron or requires you to order more and more updated services. Yet another common fraud to watch out with regard to is a unsolicited email concerning "important information" your psychic must relay to anyone. Ask yourself, whether or not it's that important, or should your psychic truly has your better passions at heart, why definitely not only tell you within the original e-mail? a few. Your psychic utilizes trap and switch practices these kinds of as offering a totally free spell - only to require higher priced "tools and materials" as soon as the original spell-work fails to develop outcomes. 7. Your clairvoyant helps make claims that are not only unverifiable but are designed to cloak all of them in an air connected with mystery (in order in order to entice you straight into buying their services). Not any reliable psychic needs to use gimmicks or to help to make outrageous assertions. They're not only generally false but are almost always fully unrelated to skill-levels. 7. Your psychic threatens you or leaves you sensation afraid for your individual safety. Rise related to help assertions about spells out, curses, black magic, voodoo in addition to so forth. Remember that will no one can in order to power from you or harm come to you actually psychically. And they can not cause harm to your own loved ones either. on the lookout for. Your psychic portrays the dog or herself to have particular powers that could make or break your needs, or relieve you through a ominous fate. This kind of is extortion. It's not real. No one has any special powers around you or your cherished ones. And the merely thing you will possibly be relieved involving in that scenario is your hard-earned money. 10. Your email hounds you for reviews or offers some motivator for rating well. This really is called ratings manipulation as well as speaks more of your current psychic's desire to bring in more customers than it does of their curiosity in your situation. Some sort of few words and phrases about scores: Most psychics appreciate responses after a program, seeing that it validates the practical experience for the reader and to get potential clients trying to find somebody to put their religious beliefs into. Even negative feedback can be helpful when it's respectfully provided. Sadly this is rarely predicament. Good psychics are often recognized with bad feedback intended for simply telling often the truth, or with regard to painting a less-than glowing final result, while "bad" psychics are given rave reviews with regard to feeding into a client's hope and wishes : no matter if those hopes and also hopes are not primarily based in reality.

People that have married in to Royal Families since 1800 Spam

Spain

Princess Sophia of Greece and Denmark

Sofía of Greece and Denmark is a member of the Spanish royal family who served as Queen of Spain during the reign of her husband, King Juan Carlos I, from 1975 to 2014.

Princess Sophia of Greece and Denmark was born on 2 November 1938, in Psychiko, Athens, Greece, the eldest child of King Paul and his wife, Queen Frederica. Sofia is a member of the Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg dynasty. Her brother is the deposed King Constantine II and her sister is Princess Irene. Princess Sophia spent some of her childhood in Egypt where she took her early education in El Nasr Girls' College (EGC) in Alexandria. She lived in South Africa during her family's exile from Greece during World War II. They returned to Greece in 1946. She finished her education at the prestigious Schloss Salem boarding school in Southern Germany, and then studied childcare, music and archeology in Athens. She also studied at Fitzwilliam College, Cambridge, now, though not then, a constituent college of the University of Cambridge. She represented Greece, alongside her brother Constantine, as a reserve member of the Gold Medal-winning sailing team in the 1960 Summer Olympics.

Sofía met her paternal third cousin the then Infante Juan Carlos of Spain on a cruise in the Greek Islands in 1954; they met again at the wedding of the Duke of Kent, her paternal second cousin, at York Minster in June 1961.The couple married on 14 May 1962, at the Catholic Cathedral of Saint Dionysius in Athens. Sofia converted from Greek Orthodoxy to Roman Catholicism to become more palatable to Catholic Spain, and thus relinquished her rights to the Greek throne. Along with this, the usual Latinisation of her Greek name (Σοφία) was changed from Sophia to the Spanish variant, Sofía.

In 1969, Infante Juan Carlos, who was never Prince of Asturias (the traditional title of the Spanish heir apparent), was given the official title of "Prince of Spain" by the Spanish state; Sofía herself had suggested the title. Juan Carlos acceded to the throne in 1975, upon the death of Francisco Franco. The couple have three children: Elena (born 20 December 1963); Cristina (born 13 June 1965); and Felipe (born 30 January 1968).

In addition to Spanish and her native Greek, Queen Sofía also speaks Italian, French, German, Portuguese and English.

She is executive president of the Queen Sofía Foundation, which in 1993, sent funds for relief in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and is honorary president of the Royal Board on Education and Care of Handicapped Persons of Spain, as well as the Spanish Foundation for Aid for Drug Addicts. She takes special interest in programs against drug addiction, travelling to conferences in both Spain and abroad.

The Queen is an Honorary Member of the San Fernando Royal Academy of Fine Arts and of the Spanish Royal Academy of History. Queen Sofía has been honorary president of the Spanish Unicef Committee since 1971. She has been working closely with Dr. Muhammed Yunus on his Grameen Bank (or "Village Bank"), which offers microcredits to women across the world. Queen Sofía has travelled to Bangladesh, Chile, Colombia, El Salvador and Mexico to support the activities of the organization led by Yunus. Queen Sofía has also been a strong supporter of Somaly Mam's efforts and of the NGO she founded—Agir pour les Femmes en Situation Précaire (AFESIP)—in combatting child prostitution and slavery in Cambodia. In 1998, Mam was awarded the prestigious Prince of Asturias Award for International Cooperation in her presence. In July 2012, the Queen visited the Philippines for a fourth time. She inspected several development projects around the former Spanish colony that her country's government is funding via the Agencia Española de Cooperacion Internacional para el Desarollo (AECID). She visited the National Library, National Museum and the University of Santo Tomas. She also met with Spanish nationals residing in the Philippines, and attended a reception at the Spanish Embassy. She also attended a state dinner in her honour at Malacañan Palace hosted by President Benigno Aquino III

The the Princess Sofía was in Greece on a private visit to her brother, King Constantine II, when the 1967 Greek military coup took place. Since then, he has been stripped of his title, citizenship and property in Greece. Except for a brief stay for the funeral of her mother in 1981, Queen Sofía did not visit republican Greece until 1998. She and her husband paid an official visit after 17 years as guests of the then President Constantinos Stephanopoulos.

She has expressed opinions on policy including her criticism of the military intervention in Afghanistan, where Spanish troops were taking part at the time, her defence of religious education in schools, and her conviction that gender violence publicity will encourage new cases to occur.

On the occasion of her 70th birthday, she made a number of conservative ideological statements on issues then being debated in Spanish society. These statements were published by the Opus Dei journalist Pilar Urbano, and included Queen Sofía's rejection of same-sex marriage, rejection of gay pride celebration, anti-abortion position and defence of religious education in schools. Her opinions produced great unrest among progressive sectors of Spanish society, and prompted criticism of her for getting involved in partisan opinions against her constitutional mandate

Her opinions were subjected to lively criticism by LGBT associations and Spanish intellectuals.Also responding were Spanish republican political parties like IU and ERC. The governing PSOE decided to keep silent, while the conservative opposition PP also did so, after initial criticism of the Queen from one of its representatives. A biography published in May 2012 claims that the Queen is a vegetarian who dislikes bullfighting.

Absolutely love being invited to a party, only to be informed once I’m there that it’s an “girls only” party but it’s ok because “you don’t count.”

And then having ever person that walks in be informed that it’s “only girls tonight! Except Orin, but that doesn’t count!” I just absolutely love it! 🙃
