Robert Graves dismissing the supposed ‘death of Pan’: ‘The Egyptian Thamus apparently misheard the ceremonial lament Thamus Pan-megas Tethnēce (“the all-great Thammuz is dead!”) for the message, “Thamus, Great Pan is dead!”’ — ‘The Greek Myths,’ 1955.

‘Beneath the coronal of leaf and lichen
The mocking smile upon the lips derides
Pan’s lost dominion; but the pointed ears
Are keen and prick’d with old remember’d sounds.’
— Eleanor Farjeon, ‘Pan-Worship’ (1908)

This is Autumn. She was born without one paw. Gets along just fine with three, but still sometimes uses a prosthetic leg when she wants to blend in. 13/10

In ‘Night of Pan,’ the last episode of ‘Hellier,’ season two (2018), Dana and Greg perform a ritual invocation of Pan in a cave near Somerset, Kentucky after identifying the ‘high strangeness’ they’ve encountered as possible manifestation of the ancient god.

Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby was published April 10, 1925, a hundred years ago today.

I have always been struck by its prescience - to write this tale at the height of the Roaring Twenties, with a clear-eyed view of its total rotting core and impending demise.

They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.

-FS Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby, published 4/10/1925.

Australian artist and witch Rosaleen Norton (1917-1979) was devoted to the god Pan, whom she believed ‘is the spirit whose body — or such of it as can be seen in these four dimensions (the fourth being time) — is the planet Earth.’

‘Muse, tell me about Pan, the dear son of Hermes, with his goat’s feet and two horns — a lover of merry noise. Through wooded glades he wanders with dancing nymphs who foot it on some sheer cliff’s edge, calling upon Pan, the shepherd-god, long-haired, unkempt.’ — Homeric Hymn 19

According to the Homeric Hymn to Pan, the god Hermes fell in love with the Nymph Penelopeia, disguising himself as a shepherd to win her hand. He brought their first child, shaggy with goat's feet, to Olympus, where the gods named him ‘Pan’ (‘all’) for he made them all laugh.
