In another, the Seven of Cups is a reminder that although it is good to have dreams and wishes, it is even better to take action attaining those dreams. In one sense, the Seven of Cups indicates that you are a dreamer who is both excited and afraid of the things that you see in your unconscious.

![]() The Muse of history, Clio is known as “The Proclaimer.” She records heroic deeds and celebrates historical accomplishments. To show her much-respected status, Calliope is also oftentimes shown donning a diadem.Īccording to popular legend, it was the Muse Calliope that the Greek poet Homer sought out when writing his epics, Iliad and Odyssey. If not a writing tablet, then she carries a scroll or book. In most depictions of Calliope, she is shown to be holding a writing tablet close to her breast. She is also the mother of the masterful musician, Linus, who has also been reported to be the son of various other Muses, like her younger sister, the Muse Clio. By way of the Greek poet Apollonius in his epic, Argonautica, Calliope was married to the Thracian king, Oeagrus, of whom was Orpheus’ true father. Moreover, her name literally means “beautiful voice,” being made up of the Greek words kallos (“beauty”) and ops (“voice”).įurther, Calliope is the speculated lover of Apollo and the mother of the influential bard, Orpheus. She is known as the Muse of epic poetry and rightfully distinguished as the “Chief of all Muses” by the likes of Hesiod. The Muse Calliopeīeing the eldest of the Muses, Calliope is perhaps one of the most familiar of the familiar nine. Their origins from the springs created by the winged steed gained them the collective name pegasides. The nine Muses emerged from the springs and took up residency on the mountain as a result. Most of the time, the springs connected to this particular myht are simply referred to as Hippocrene, meaning “Horse Spring.”Īccording to legend, four of these were springs on Mount Helicon in Boeotia. In this iteration, Pegasus inadvertently created a number of springs when his hooves hit against the rocky ground. In some recordings of Greek mythology, the Muses are instead water nymphs that had sprouted out of springs formed by the stamping of Pegasus’ mighty hooves rather than the nine daughters born from the union of Zeus and Mnemosyne. Names of alternative Muses includes Nete, Mese, and Hypate – alternatively Cephisso, Apollonis, and Borysthenis – in Delphi, and the four Muses Aoide, Arche, Melete, and Thelxinoe. The changes to the Muses were regional, causing a complete shift in both name and number of the Muses.įor example, some locations worshipped only three Muses, as in Boeotia, while others acknowledged only five Muses. The poet Hesiod attested that there were nine Muses and, while that became the standard, there was actually great variety to the Muses in ancient times. In the beginning, the Muses were thought to have resided on Mount Olympus, close to their birthplace, though the progression of time situated them instead as residing at their cult center at Mount Helicon, or on Mount Parnassus – a location dear to the god Apollo. In lesser-known interpretations of the Muses, their mother is instead recorded to be Harmonia, the daughter of Aphrodite and Ares, the god of war. The nine sisters are oftentimes referred as the Pierian Muses as a result. The Muses are daughters of Zeus and Mnemosyne, born at the base of Mount Olympus in a region called Pieria. ![]() With their blessings, the nine inspirational daughters of Zeus made legends out of common men by granting them incredible gifts of song, dance, intelligence, curiosity, and lyrical prowess. Whether a musician writes a hit new song an astronomer formulates a new star-bound theory or an artist begins their next masterpiece, we can thank the Muses for the bouts of inspiration. ![]() ![]() In short, it is thanks to these numerous goddesses that mankind has continued to discover and create. After all, there is a reason that not a single piece of Greek poetry has forgone at least an honorable mention of one of the nine Muses, if not more. No other deity was capable of provoking such creative advances. When all is said and done, it was the Muses that enabled inspiration. It is believed that without them, there would be a distinct lack of creation and discovery made by humankind. The nine Muses are ancient Greek personifications of the arts and knowledge.

It had no ventilation holes as there was a gap where the helm and bevor meet. The German sallet was distinguished by a long, sometimes laminated, tail that extended to cover the back of the neck and by a single, long eye slit. The Italian version was a curvaceous helmet with a short tail, and was sometimes provided with a 'bellows visor'. When worn with a bevor as was usual outside Italy, a sallet covers the entire head. Visors on English bascinets have a hinge at each side whereas German bascinets have a single hinge attached at the middle. Worn with an aventail then later with a gorget.

![]() ![]() Shortly afterward, two Baltimore newspapers published it, and by mid-October it had appeared in at least seventeen other papers in cities up and down the East Coast. A local printer issued the new song as a broadside. Back in Baltimore, he completed the four verses (PDF) and copied them onto a sheet of paper, probably making more than one copy. Inspired by the sight of the American flag flying over Fort McHenry the morning after the bombardment, he scribbled the initial verse of his song on the back of a letter. Rather, that it was too clever for the speaker’s admiration, and invited derision instead.Francis Scott Key was a gifted amateur poet. For example, it is not meant that Paul Ryan’s jab was not actually clever. When sarcasm is used, note that it does not mean a negation of the fact, only a negation of the speaker’s admiration for it. The speaker is definitely touched/moved.Īll your examples, except the first, are without any sarcasm, just emotion. The expression, in normal terms, just means an sigh, admiring/lamenting something for being “very” (adjective) such as “My little nephew is oh so cute”. I would say the use of the expression in your examples is one of derision, not directly sarcasm. The headline should be interpreted as: Ryan made a pointed comment about Cutler that was so clever it made me gasp. In this context, the use of "oh-so-clever" in Seifert's headline is not in the least sarcastic - it's entirely factual. Ryan himself was using verbal irony - defined by Abrams and Hartman as "a statement in which the meaning that a speaker employs is sharply different from the meaning that is ostensibly expressed" - and his comment about four quarters of strong performance was particularly clever, since this was ostensibly about a financial year divided into four quarters, but a savvy audience would see the allusion to four quarters of a football game.

What I will do, however, is draw your attention to noted funnyman Paul The body of the article explains the context: The expression "Paul Ryan's oh-so-clever jab at Jay Cutler" was the headline of an NFL (American football) article by sports journalist Kevin Seifert. Let's have a look at the first example in particular, where the confusion may lie in failing to differentiate the description of Ryan's jab from the actual jab (the pointed comment) itself. In each case, "oh-so-" is used in a straightforward way to intensify the following word. None of the examples given in the question are sarcastic in tone. "You have been working hard," he said with heavy sarcasm, as he looked at the empty page. ![]() Made in order to hurt someone's feelings or to criticize something in The use of remarks that clearly mean the opposite of what they say, This is not the case - at least, it's no more true than the use of "very" or any other intensifier. Does it indicate sarcasm?Ī number of answers have suggested that the addition "oh-so-" is often used in a sarcastic context. We would therefore interpret oh-so-lonely as something like "so lonely it made me sigh", and oh-so-clever as "so clever it made me gasp". The "oh" in the expression gives the added sense of a sigh or gasp (depending on context), heightening the emotional content of the expression. However, the idiomatic addition of oh enables so to be used attributively (though why, I'm not sure!): "the oh so clever joke." So is itself an intensifier, but it can normally only be used predicatively - "that joke was so clever" but not "the so clever joke". ![]() The expression "oh-so-" is an intensifier, a linguistic term for a modifier that "serves to enhance and give additional emotional context to the word it modifies". ![]() ![]() ![]() In these examples, you are well explained about the Rising Wedge Pattern. Example 1 – Rising Wedge Pattern Example 1 – Rising Wedge Pattern You can take the target of the same number of points after the breakdown. If we talk about the target, then all the points are there from the first support to the first resistance. You can place your stop loss above its high. Whichever candle has given a breakdown of the support line. You can take your entry in the next candle from it. As soon as you will see the breakdown of the support line. In the rising wedge pattern, you will see a resistance line and a support line. Trade Setup – Rising Wedge Pattern Trade Setup – Rising Wedge Pattern Next we will know how you have to take entry in it. Therefore, rising wedge patterns indicate the more likely potential of falling prices. You can also call it like this that on the upper side you get to see the resistance line and on the lower side you get to see the support line. Our target is calculated just like the head and shoulders pattern. In this, you will get to see resistance at the top and support at the bottom. You will see an uptrend before the rising wedge pattern. The rising wedge pattern is a bearish pattern, whether it forms after an established uptrend or during a downtrend, so the next time you spot this pattern on your favorite market exercise caution if you are holding a long position or prepare for an opportunity to get short.Rising Wedge Chart Pattern Rising Wedge Chart Pattern ![]() A target could again have been placed at the level where the rising wedge started from with a stop loss above the last higher high.Īlways make sure that your potential reward is larger than the risk you are taking on and if your stop loss ends up being too far away, then consider placing your stop above a previous swing high that was formed on the way down, before the support line was broken. This is also a picture-perfect example where price pulled back to the support line, retested it from below and dropped lower. My final chart shows that same multi-year rising wedge that formed in AUD/USD but note that although price made higher highs that the momentum between each peak started slowing down, which is a behavior that these patterns tend to display. Traders Tip: When you are following a rising wedge in real-time, it can be a good idea to watch for momentum divergence on a MACD-Histogram between the higher highs, and use it as an additional confirmation method that a rising wedge might be nearing an end. The ideal place to set a target will be at the lower level where the rising wedge started from, with a stop loss a few pips above the final high before the breakout occurred. Use technical analysis indicators to spot and interpret rising wedge patterns. Just keep in mind though, that this may not always happen and result in a trader missing an entry. A rising wedge is a bearish stock pattern formed by converging trend lines. Conservative traders, on the other hand, will generally wait for price to retest the lower support line from below before they will execute a short trade. Since the rising wedge is a bearish pattern, aggressive traders will typically wait for price to break below the lower support line before they will execute a short position. Practice This Strategy How to Trade the Rising Wedge Pattern The rising wedge pattern usually means a breakdown to the downside. ![]() ![]() ![]() Additionally, you may find the entire offers of WP themes, courses and e-books, cv templates, slides, and various other components.
