BURGOS: KINGS AND BISHOPS UNDER THE SPECIAL PATRONAGE OF THE GREEN MAN

In the Chapel of the Fieldmarshalls the heroic aspects of the Green Man are emphasized. Logically, once again his very close relationship with the Wise Women ist stressed here, as well. The one below/right is decorated with a crown, she will be a queen, for sure. All in all it indicates (once again) that the Green Man payed a prominent role on the highest levels of society..

It is remarkable that in Spain in the XVIth century the Grail was still very much alive. Recommendation to the Grail seekers: you don't have to search for it. See and it is everywhere. It is always portrayed as a Cauldron of Abundance, often together with the Cosmic Mother or/and the Green Man, who in these cases is the personification of Parcival. Isn't this all a miracle?

This could be Jesus as Green Man

Something very unique: the Wilde Men of Burgos. The dancing men are totally covered with leaves. A shamanistic ritual? LINK: Den Bosch, Netherlands
