#FolkloreThursday Do you ever wonder what those faceless phantoms are trying to tell you when they knock your window? Voices, rising... But you can't catch the wind (From The Wind song, part of my illustrated music book "The Underliving"). My own art too https://t.co/xRl8A1zyaI
It's #FolkloreThursday! [Ukko, Finnish god of sky, weather, harvest, and thunder, by Robert Ekman]
The Shipwreck (1772) by Claude-Joseph Vernet (French, 1714 - 1789). National Gallery of Art, Washington D.C. “Lightning never strikes the same place twice.” It's folklore, but is it true? #FolkloreThursday #MarineArt #MaritimeArt
In Slavic folklore Płanetnik was a creature who filled the clouds with water or hail and moved them around the sky. Depending on how people treated them and on their own whim, płanetniks brought favourable weather or a natural disaster.

“Pimpernel, pimpernel, tell me true,
Whether the weather will be fine or no…”
The scarlet pimpernel is known as “the poor man’s weatherglass”.
It’s tiny red flowers open for sunny days and close for rainy days.

Akashita is a #yokai appearing as a dark cloud with sharp claws, a beast's face and long red tongue. If rice farmers divert and steal water from neighbours during droughts, akashita punishes them by draining their water & snatching them with its long red tongue.

"I met a little girl with a book under her arm. I asked her why she was out so early and she answered that there were too many #books and far too little time. And there she was absolutely right.”
