SL Destinations: The Sands of Time

Hello Travelers,

We bring you a post on the mysterious and beautiful sim “The Sands of Time.”

http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Sands%20of%20Time/185/191/22

 

This Beautifully landscaped sim is Home to Majilis Al Jinn.

 

The name of the sim can be translated as: The Congress (or the seat, the meeting place) of Spirits.
The Jinn are mythical beings of great power that exist somewhere between heaven and earth.

 

In western culture they are often thought of as Djinn/Jinni/ Genie, and are often the granters of wishes when found and released. In middle eastern culture, the Jinn are mentioned in the Quran as beings created by Allah, where men were created from clay, the Jinn were created from fire, and just like men, have free will, and the ability to choose to be good or not. The subject of Jinn in Muslim culture is today at least, often taboo, as they are often blamed for causing mischief on earth.

 

Majailis Al Jinn is an island reflecting the enchantment and the wonder from tales like 1001 nights, or even modern stories such as ‘Prince of Persia’. Here Western and Far East cultural influences can be found blended in.

Exploring this island, You will see The recess in the island’s center is sheltering a garden of wonders.

 

There are caves of Mystery under the palace, hidden alcoves to sit and cuddle, and even a sunken ancient temple.

 

When you visit this fabulous sim, Time is of no importance here, Stop and take time to enjoy this haven set on a vast ocean where Mystery & beauty is allowed to flourish.

 

Thank You for visiting this blog, Your support is appreciated. Stay tuned for another sweet find and Take Care.

SL Destinations: Autumn Equinox

Solstice Tidings One & All!,

This post is about one of our mutually favorite times of the year, Fall.

September 22-23, marks the Autumn Solstice., It’s the closure of summer, The reap of harvests, Enjoyment of colors on
changing leaves, And preparation of oneself both physically and mentally for the colder months ahead.

 

This change is celebrated by many different cultures all over the world in several ways.
In the U.K. for example where Revan is from, People visit the World Famous site called Stonehedge.

Stonehenge is a prehistoric monument in Wiltshire, England.
It is generally accepted that Stonehenge was an ancient spiritual centre, and many people congregate to welcome the sun and
the new seasons.

Revan and I dressed in manner and explored SL in search for nostalgic & picturesque Fall sims.

The photo’s in this post came from 4 of the sims we enjoyed.LM’s are included below.
**SL’s Stonehedge, A cute little village on a sim called Fable, A gorgeous sim called the Kingdom of Alurel, and We had
a ball dancing to Medieval Flutes at The Renaissance Faire Isle.**

I also wrote a small poem about the Event. 🙂

 

A Season of Mellow has been ushered in.
Like an orchestra, Autumn’s song begins.

Nature’s Crescendo starts to build
Welcoming her song are those of guild.

Woodsman, Farmers, Gatherers of like.
Meeting on Meadow, travel by Pike.

Some may view this all as a Pagan’s delight,
But it is just respect of impending dark while giving thanks to sunlight.

Celebratory Feasts, Dancing in Cheer.
It is Autumnal Equinox and finally here.
