light during decomposition 
November is not the most pleasant month of the year. To be honest is probably one of the most dismal - in my opinion goes head to head with the February, although in favor of the latter works is that it is only 28 [1] days, and additionally each passing day the sun comes to us minutes.
yesterday in the fight the aura of November's casually dressed-his most colorful sneakers and went for a walk, which looked like a march with obstacles, because I had to break through the drifts of red leaves. I went home dreaming of a little frozen tea with raspberry juice at the same time, because few minutes later the rain fell. And this is a surprise! Rain in London, especially in November. But it was only a fleeting drizzle that left a beautiful rainbow in the sky. Yesterday's rain turned into a downpour today.
Rainbow has always been for me as unusual. Believed it is a bridge connecting heaven and earth, and always announces some good event. And there was this belief alone. In Norse mythology, you can find a story about
Bifröst - flaming rainbow bridge that connects the earth, otherwise
Midgard, which is the world of mortal men with the world of gods, Asgard
. Most watched day and night by
Heimdall gods used to move between the human and the divine realm. It was believed that at the end of the world's rainbow bridge collapse under the weight of Giants trying to get to
Asgard.
Also ancient Greeks attributed the rainbow nadziemską power. Was identified with a goddess named Iris
that, as a maid of the goddess Hera, watched over her mistress, fell asleep and never ready for any call. Often powoziła golden chariot drawn by a herd of Hera's peacock. Iris had a pair of spreading wings tęczobarwnych so moved faster, even from the divine messenger, Hermes, because sometimes asked about the descent was to earth with a message from the gods and the gods will provide the people and that's when the sky appeared a rainbow, a bridge between the world of humans and gods. The Greeks believed that just as the sun unites heaven and earth, so Iris links the gods tall with straight people.
The religions of the Far East are also found in the deity, whose attribute is a rainbow. In ancient Chinese myth, one can find descriptions of the goddess
Nüwa 女娲 - the woman's head and body of the serpent was regarded as the creator humankind. The formed clay figurines of humans, which later burnt in a furnace, that they are not fragile - they burned at too high a temperature become black-skinned, and they are too low - the white race. Figures fired at an ideal temperature acquired a yellow color of the skin. It was believed also that Nüwa repaired the sky, which was destroyed during the war of the gods. Using stones in five colors patched slit, which was created during the fight - in this way in the sky a rainbow appeared.
Hinduism also has a god of the rainbow - It is
Indra - the god of rain, thunder and lightning (in a sense you can compare him to Thor, the Norse or Greek Zeus). In Sanskrit it is called rainbow
indradhanus इन्द्रधनुस्, which means bow of Indra.
What is interesting also in Christianity and Judaism, we find references to the rainbow as a divine sign. It was at that rainbow appeared in the sky when the great flood, after 40 days came to an end, as a sign of a new covenant between God and men.
God then promised Noah that never again would send the flood to the earth to punish people for their sins.
In turn, the beliefs of Australian Aborigines rainbow serpent appears
Yingarna , who lived deep underground near the artesian wells. Starting from the ground surface of a huge stuffed on its mass, thereby creating a chain of high mountains. Rainbow Snake regarded as an enemy of the Sun, with its numerous migrations also filled the source and made streams. Thus, it was believed that a benefactor and protector of people, which also may punish them for not following the law by sending the drought.
of course, probably the best known so far my beliefs associated with the rainbow, is one of garncu gold hidden at the end of the Irish
leprikona . Whoever reaches the end of the rainbow can count on a generous reward.
starobułgarskie The administration said that anyone who goes under the rainbow will be transformed in their gender - a man starts to think like a woman, a woman like a man. Maybe that's the legend originated in the feed rainbow flag - the symbol of the LGBT movement?
And at the end of one of my favorite songs, "
Somwhere over the rainbow in
Wizard of Oz performed by a duo (can not) by Eva Cassidy and Katie Melua. Film a little longish, because at the beginning you can see the material about the life and work of Eva, but I strongly recommend in its entirety.
