Burning Man 2014 - Vulcanalia Rites + Wickerman + Cremation of Care

The annual Pagan festival known as Burning Man began this morning in Nevada. More large scale debauchery and ritual. Although it's not claimed to be, it is largely a modern celebration of Vulcanalia. It's also related to the Wicker Man Druidic sacrifice and the Cremation of Care (Bohemian Club and Grove) sacrifice to the Owl (not Moloch so much as Inanna-Ishtar).



“The festival of Vulcan, the Vulcanalia, was celebrated on August 23rd each year, when the summer heat placed crops and granaries most at risk of burning. During the festival bonfires were created in honour of the god, into which live fish or small animals were thrown as a sacrifice, to be consumed in the place of humans. The Volcanalia were part of the cycle of the four festivities of the second half of August (Consualia on August 21, Volcanalia on 23, Opiconsivia on 25 and Volturnalia on 27)
...
A flamen, one of the flamines minores, named flamen Volcanalis was in charge of the cult of the god. The flamen Volcanalis officiated at a sacrifice to the goddess Maia, held every year at the Kalendae of May.”
(Wikipedia)

Vulcan = Satan
Maia = Mary-Isis-Venus-Aphrodite...

Such celebrations are intended to appease Vulcan, but it does not seem to be working.

Finland's Voice of Vulcanalia competition (Univeristy of Oulu) does not seem to have helped, either. http://www.oyy.fi/en/voice-of-vulcanalia-2013/ - https://www.facebook.com/Vulcanalia

Vulcan, honored in Star Trek with Mr Spock, from the planet Vulcan. Honored in Birmingham Alabama with a Statue of Vulcan in Vulcan Park. (Wikipedia) “The Vulcan statue is the largest cast iron statue in the world, and is the city symbol of Birmingham, Alabama, reflecting its roots in the iron and steel industry. The 56-foot tall statue depicts the Roman god Vulcan, god of the fire and forge.” The exalting of the idol over the city is an expression of who rules that domain as the local Baal.

Here's a short series written about last year's event.
