Holiday Gifts For Redheads!

On By redfire67In Culture, Life with a Red-Head, Magic, red hair, Red Hair Care, UncategorizedLeave a comment

        Buying a gift for your favorite redhead can be a difficult venture since they are a unique brand of people, to say the least. Eccentric, fiery, environmentally sensitive, too smart for their own good and sometimes magically inclined are all terms that can define a redhead. Clothing is a risky choice because redheads dress to match their hair, so perhaps a pair of socks? You might go out and buy them a car, but again there is a chance the color might not suit them. My advice is to gift them really good all-natural body care from Freyja’s Magic and Thor’s Hammer. Freyjasmagic.com has a line of products that are suited to redheaded women and men. Incidentally, both the Norse gods, Freyja and Thor had red hair.  All natural and uniquely scented with only pure essentials. Freyja’s Magic is the smart choice for a discerning redhead.

Thor’s Hammer Aftershave

For the men, spice up their life with Thor’s Hammer Bay Rum Spice Aftershave  or cool them down with Thor’s Hammer Fire & Ice Aftershave. Both scents are manly and refreshing and it doesn’t get any better than that! For those redbeards out there, try the Bay Rum beard balm for a soft and spicy handsome beard.

Freyja’s Magic also offers natural perfume oils of Mountain Rose and Orange Blossom, Lilac Face and Body Mist,  Lemongrass Foaming Sugar Scrub, and Rose and Wintermint lip balms.

Ghengis Khan Had Red Hair and Green Eyes

On By redfire67In China, History, red hairLeave a comment

Yes, you read that right. According to ancient historian Rashid Al-din, Ghengis Khan – the great ancient marauder who terrorized much of Asia and Europe, burned many a town, and had over 2000 concubines – was a redhead. Many scoff at the idea of him being caucasian, worse yet a redhead with green eyes. However, when you think of it, who else fits the picture better than a hot-tempered red head?

Redhead Surfer O’Brien Scores Perfect 10 and Loses

Riding the pipe is downright a dangerous sport and it takes quite a thrill seeker to wish to surf such waves. Take red haired surfer Jamie O’Brien from Hawaii and you have the perfect example. Daredevil and immune from the apparent hazards of this sport including sunburn, O’Brien is a top contender. Recently at the Red Bull surf event in his home island, Jamie scored a perfect 10 and lost to another surfer. My first thought was this could only happen to a redhead.

Shining Ones Sunscreen at Freyja’s Magic!

No need to use chemicals to protect your skin from sunburn! Our pure, natural SPF 30+ sunscreen balm goes on smooth and is lightly scented with pure frankincense and myrrh essential oils. Non-nano zinc oxide provides UVA & UVB protection by creating a protective barrier of minerals on your skin. Coconut, shea and jojoba oils moisturize and provide additional SPF. Beeswax adds waterproofing. Our creamy formula absorbs well, leaving your skin soft and shining. Gentle, non-irritating, safe for babies.

To use: Apply 10-15min before sun exposure. Reapply as needed, and after swimming. Use common sense to avoid sunburn.

Tested on Ourselves! My husband (a redhead) and I both have very sensitive skin that burns, not tans. We were outside in direct sun by a lake for 2 hours during the hottest part of the day, and didn’t get burned wearing just one application of our sunscreen. Our 2 year old baby girl was also unscathed!

Note: Will stain dark clothing. Apply before getting dressed, and rub in well.

*Ingredients: 20% Organic Zinc Oxide (non-nano, uncoated, therapeutic grade), coconut oil, shea butter, jojoba oil, beeswax, pure essential oils.*

Redhead Mummies: China’s Ancient Secret Uncovered

On By redfire67In China, Culture, History, red hair2 Comments

We have been taught that the Chinese civilization developed without any outside influence. When Chinese archaeologists discovered mummies in their desert province of Xinjiang, they were startled to find that these people were of Celtic origin. The mummies had red hair and clothing made in Europe. These people brought with them horses, the wheel and woven cloth. Evidence suggests that these ‘caucasians’ resided in China for over 3000 years. This amazing find would have been kept secret to the outside world if not for the chance discovery of an American professor Victor Mair in the 1980’s.

These mummies were part of the ‘Secrets of the Silk Road’ exhibit which toured the US in 3 cities in 2010-11. However, the exhibit was cancelled suddenly without warning by the Chinese government because of their perceived cultural sensitivity.

The Yellow Emperor was Caucasian

“According to Taoist legend, Huang Di, had supernatural capabilities. It is said that his mother conceived him after she was energized by swirling light.”

The Yellow Emperor (Huangdi) of China is the father of Chinese Medicine. Huangdi, who lived 5000 years ago, was supposedly named for the yellow soil of the plains, loess. However, others argue that he was in fact named for the golden color of his hair, meaning he was caucasian. Huangdi was the name of a caucasian tribe that emigrated to China in 2700BC.

Personally, I think it would be appropriate for the Chinese government to return these mummies to a western historical center, such as the British Museum, since the mummies are not Chinese. They should be displayed and their history shared, not hidden away in China.

Hops, Beer and a Limp Dick

On By redfire67In alcohol, Beer and wine, Health, History, red hairLeave a comment

nuadaYes everyone loves a good beer. Who doesn’t?  After swilling a couple brews, your inhibitions subside and that horny funny feeling arises. Well do you want a straight pointer or linguini? The sad part is that hops are an anaphrodisiac which means in short that you are left a limp weanie and sleepy. What a bummer! One solution is to drink mead instead, that wonderful honey-inspired wine gift from the gods. Legend has it that the Viking god Odin was able to make love for 3 days straight after drinking 3 huge barrels. Not a bad campaign eh? Yeah but we are left with our love of beer. The bad news is in medieval times those Protestants put into law that hops must be used in the production of beer in order to take away that sexual feeling. I know I might be upsetting all you homebrewers and your love of hops but that is the fair truth. Before that our ancestors used all kinds of amazing herbs to not only make great beer called ale or gruit, but also made sure the sex was great. Bad news is that you might have to make your own because it is hard to find, but the good news is that you can feel like a Viking again on your next sexual conquest.
