AnnaBelle - The Haunted Doll

AnnaBelle - The Haunted Doll-
Today the Real Annabelle
Haunted Doll Remains locked in
this Glass case. Where it still
reported that weekly, the Doll still
manges to turn up in the strangest of
places in the Museum...
In the spirit of Halloween I thought I would bring my post that I did many years back on the
Haunted Doll Annabelle. I had first posted this when I was doing Ning.com sites before I even had a blog and so I had to look for my re-write of the haunted doll since the haunted movie is out this week. I must say that I don't remember the doll looking like what they have her in
the movie. I guess they had to make it look more scarier for the movie goers Eh!
So basically the story of the haunted doll Annabelle was actually a terrifying case of a over-sized Raggedy Ann doll. Which is interesting to me because this dolls; the Raggedy Ann dolls were very popular when my mum was a little girl. I can't really remember that year? But I could tell you a bit about their history... of the Raggedy Ann doll. Its a character that was created by an American writer Johnny Gruelle [1880-1938]. Apparently he also wrote a series of books and illustrated the books for young children with his Raggedy Ann character which was not really scary at all.. She was an Rag doll with red yarn for hair and has a triangle nose. It seems that the writer johnny Gruelle even received an US Patent for his Raggedy Ann doll in the year 1915 on Sept 7. He actually created Raggedy Ann
Raggedy Ann doll and Andy doll
In the Year 1915 -1918
the doll in 1915 and then in 1918 is when he introduce his books stories about the doll, with quite a bit of success at the time in the 1900's. It was such a great concept the writer Johnny decided to bring in the brother Raggedy Andy that was dressed in a sailor suit and hat.  This is what I remember my mum having and this is what the ANNABELLE HAUNTED DOLL IS! NOT THE MORE CREEPY LOOKING ONE THAT THEY HAVE PUT ON THE MOVIE THAT IS IN THEATERS NOW!
So now for the  tale of the Raggedy Ann Doll - Haunted Annabelle. Briefly it was a case that happened in the 1970's. It was even highlighted in a book in the 70's called The Demonologist. It happened when Ed and Lorraine Warren began to have such creepy terrifying problems in their home after the purchased of a over-sized Raggedy-Anne doll as a present for the daughter birthday it was believed. After that is when the horror began. Its seems that one their daughters friends was attacked physically and the list went on to the point that they had to call upon a Episcopal priest. So now I will go more in detail of the scary tale of the
Annabelle Haunted Raggedy Ann Doll-
How this tale began was just like any other ordinary day in the 70's with a mum walking along looking for the perfect birthday gift for her daughter who's gone to college. And this mother found this perfect gift so she thought in a hobby store thinking that the over-sized Raggedy-Anne doll to be that perfect gift; little did she know that it would bring terror to her family to an height that no one could have predicted. And that the doll would end up locked inside a protective glass case in an occult museum to keep her at bay to this day of 2014... And even today in the 21th century the doll is still reported that while it is even under lock and key, weekly Annabelle still manages to turn up in the strangest of places in the Museum. After Lorraine Warren had brought the doll home to her daughter for her birthday things were find for a while, but it seems that the weird disturbances started, when her daugher donna and roommate discovered a piece of chocolate mysteriously left in the living room stereo. What made it so disturbing, was the fact that, no one had bought the chocolate and they were all perplexed to how on earth did it get there on its own! Then the strange messages started. And they were found in a child's handwriting on parchment paper too! What was so odd about that was! Is the fact that there was no! parchment paper in the house and there was no children that young in the house to write that young of writing. Plus the writing was note of 'Help me' and other types of note of
 The Original Annabelle Haunted Doll
that nature which was very odd and creepy too. It seemed that more and more objects were being moved about the home, never being found where they had originally been left before. The family started to truly believe that somebody or something was inside their house and it was creepy them out. So it seems that after a month of these strange almost paranormal happenings and occurrences the girl finally decided that they need some help. note I wouldn't have waited that long or even stayed in that House! But that is just me.. Anyways back to the story. The girls got an investigator to get the history of the properly to see if there was any paranormal activity or ghosts, and they also contacted a local medium too. What the girls found out was before the apartments had been built there, a young girl by the name of  'AnnaBelle' had died on the property. It seems that the spirit of the child Annabelle had loved to play in the field there at the property... those were the happy times for her and her spirit had never left there. The medium told the girls that the little girl Annabelle's spirit was still there and was responsible for all the occurrences that had happen in their home. It was found that the notes on the parchment paper were, her asking if she could stay with them, by moving into the Raggedy Ann Doll that Donna's mum had bought for her birthday. At that point not knowing what to do? the girls had said yes, with the Medium there and they even renamed the doll to what we all now know to be 'AnnaBelle'. Of course the girls had no idea what they let into their home by letting the spirit of the dead child of Annabelle come into the doll and then into their lives.. do they creepy Eh!
The girls thought of the Doll Annabelle as a harmless mascot of sorts and they often left her on their bed in the mornings or perched on the living room sofa. The girls going to work/school each day and on returning from work things started again.
Upon returning from work, they would notice that the Annabelle had repositioned herself on her own from where she had been left that morning. It was only little movements at first, like the arms and legs of the doll were in a different position, but over time AnnaBelle was changing into different ROOMS! all by herself! The Girls would come at night to find the AnnaBelle sitting in a chair by the front door or even kneeling on the floor. Other times they would find her sitting on the sofa, even though she was left in Donna's room that morning.
The Girls were starting to get nervous and scared. And things got even worst before they decided they should do something. It apparently it was one night when everything hit the fan you could say when they were home... It was one  scary night when loud noises were heard coming from the girls bedroom apt. Thinking someone had broken into their apt, one of the tenants, decided to quietly walk inside the bedroom door. Bad move; The Doll wasn't a nice little girl spirit anymore it was something quite different. After the Tenant went in the girls room to see what it was; he/she was physically attacked by an unseen entity and ran from the AnneBelle .. that was lying roughly tossed in one corner of the room. This was the the breaking point; finally it seems somebody does something knowing that there is something very wrong with this DOLL! It took Ed and Lorraine Warren to do this when they heard of the girls scary attack with this Doll that wasn't a doll child anymore it seemed to be an much more evil entity now.. So the two invited a priest to come over to give the home a blessing.
bedroom with slashes and deep cuts. Nothing out of the ordinary was found in the bedroom of the girls apt not except for the Doll. At this point they all thought some sort of demonic or evil entity was affecting either the house or/and the doll its self. And what to do! Finally it seems that after the priest was called to the home to perform a blessing to the house/apts the doll was removed at Donna's request.
Well I guess the doll was at Ed Warren desk in a small chair for  the next three days. And during that time Ed was able to watch to see if the doll AnnaBelle was in fact a Evil entity. And of course it did. It moved and even when he had locked up for the day. Upon returning the next day, found that it had moved into his favorite chair up stairs abode his office, in his easy chair. Ed Warren had said that AnnaBelle would also emit horrific growls in response to visiting the clergyman too. At this point Ed and Lorraine Warren believed everything that has happened to the girls and wanted to know everything that has happened to them in their home and not to left out any details. So infact they had some folks that belived...
The story continues on where I found this incredible storie on this link.
Starting with this Quote '' There are two stories, "Donna said. One that began earlier in the week with Lou. The other one's about Annabele. But I suppose they're both about Annabelle.'' ''Who's Annabelle?" Ed promptly asked. "She belongs to Donna, she moves, she acts alive, but no, I don't think she's alive. She's in the living room" said Angie, pointing across the table. There, sitting on the sofa.

So from this quote you should beable to find the rest of the story on the link. It was truly to long for me to re-word for you all. I will put a few videos' that I think that you all will like and they will also explain a bit more on this scary and creepy tale on these doll.. too.

Words for the Cure

Words for the Cure-
I thought I would do a post today with different Inspiriting quotes
that I had got in a book when I was going thru breast cancer myself, to give Hope and Comfort to all those women that are going through breast cancer now and those like myself that have survived or other like myself that have survived yet still are having to take medication to stay alive for the Fight for the CURE! I thought I would also put a few quotes that my family at that time had sent me to encouraged me to be strong and that I was very much loved. Here a few I found in a book of ladies that a public eye that went through breast cancer... 
''I don't know what my path is yet. I'm just walking on it." Olivia Newton-John  ~ "I didn't want to live my life as a victim; I didn't want to use the excuse that I coulda or shoulda or woulda had a great life but I had some bad luck. It has always been the 'bad luck' or the negatives in my life that have taught me and shaped  me, and I wasn't going to lose this time around. Cancer was going to be my blessing. I was going to learn and grow and survive my way." Suzanne Somers ~ "If children have the ability to ignore all the odds and percentages, then maybe we can all learn from them. When you think about it, what other choice is there but to hope? We have two options, Medically and emotionally; Give up or fight like hell." Lance Armstrong [note lance Armstrong was able to hare his perspective when his then-fiancee Sheryl Crow was diagnosed with breast cancer.] " I have had a wonderful life. I have never regretted what I did. I regret things I didn't do. All my life I've done things at a moment's notice. Those are the things I remember.  I was give courage, a sense of adventure and a little bit of humor." Ingrid Bergman ~
Now for quote that my family gave me during my fight of Breast Cancer & Lymphoma-
Know that you are love and supported on this journey-
'Understanding is the first step to acceptance + only with acceptance can there be recovery.'' -Dumbledore-
''Forget the former things, do not dwell on the past, See I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up,
do you not see it? I am making a way in the desert + streams in the wasteland.'' -Isaiah 43:18-19
'God doesn't always deliver us from things; often he walks us THROUGH them.' -Never lose Heart-
'Sustain me according to Your promise and I will live; do not let my hopes be dashed. Uphold me, and  I will be will be delivered.' -Psalm 119:116-117
'We will still have days that seem dark. In those times God tell us to trust in his name + rely on when he is. Stand still + cry out. He'll lead you on from there + when once again you can see light, you'll be able to see the footprints you made in the dark. Never will He hold your hand more tightly than when He is leading you through the dark'. -Breaking Free
'So don't be anxious about tomorrow. God will take care of your tomorrow too. Live one day at a time.' -Matthew 6:34
'Certainly we are to pray, plan + prepare for tomorrow, but we are not to worry about what might happen.  Entrust tomorrows to him and live just today, Walking with God through today's 24hours is difficult enough! -Calm My Anxious Heart
The secret to life is know when Enough is Enough! -Dr Vincent Ryan
'You Are Worthy'  You are a child of the Universe, no less than the tress and the stars. You have a right to be here - Desiderata
Well these are a few of the quotes that helped me during my time of struggle, pain and strength that my Sister and niece had gave me to help me get through the hard times of my breast Cancer and Lymphoma too. I hope that these quotes and the ones about will help any of you ladies that might be reading my blog. I truly do understand what you are going through much love and kind heart to you all. We all have to stick together on this one and pray that one day there is a CURE. I am surving day to day. Although I lost my grandmother on my mother side to brest cancer I am still here. God bless.

The Dragon Prince

The Dragon Prince~
The Dragon Prince
I have love this story for many years. And I just found it again and thought I would share this story
with you all. It is a beautiful story, that I wish in this story that I could have been the princess. If I was,
I know for sure it would have had a very different ending! So here is the tale of the Dragon Prince!
Note- I have tried to find the author of this beautiful story but, never did. I wish I could have but I did find
a similar venison of my Dragon Prince that I have the link at the bottom of the post for you all. I am going to also add a bit of history on how the The Dragon Prince Stories came about too. So sit back and Enjoy a good story for today's post~
The Dragon Prince or Princess and Dragon has been a common tale in most legends, fairy tale's, Northrop Frye, Myths, chivalric romances and other stories of of dragons/maidens. Each of these story's I've
found always seemed to involved an upper class lady, usually of high-ranking nobility, a princess, or even an  beautiful maiden of a town. These dragons could be either very dangerous or very kind. They were were saved by Gods, knights or just hero's. She may be the first lady endangered by peril or could be that she is not of high-ranking birth, it could go either way. It is common in these legends that the princess will marry the
one who kills the dragon who safes her - the dragon-slayer. Then there are the motifs of the hero's who will
Andromeda Chained
to a rock by Gustava Dore'
find the princess, who is just about to be sacrificed to an dragon and then saves her, the false hero who takes
his place, and the final revelation of the true hero is then identified  - the True Dragon - Slayer will then appear. Then there are the quote the 'princess & dragon' scenarios. These type of stories are given more weight to their popularity because of the imagination in the stories. For example the stereotypical hero is given
the feel of the dragon-slayer even though they may only had a few dragons to slay in the tales/legends they are in like the Brothers Grimm tales.
Then there was the earliest tales of the Princess and Dragon in the Ancient Greek times of Perseus, who rescued the Princess Andromeda who was chained to a rock on the ocean shore from Cetus the Sea Serpent dragon. And
God Susanoo killing many head dragon
to protect his seven daughters 
there was also Heracles who rescued the princess Hesione of Troy from an similar type of Sea Serpent Dragon too. Even is Japan they had their own legends of Dragon Prince/Princess and Dragon too. It seems that The God Susanoo encounter two Earthly Deities who have been forced to
sacrifice their seven daughters to the many-headed monster.  How the legend of Yamata no Orochi ended to save these seven daughters from the many-headed monster was Susanoo was able to kill the dragon monster after getting it drunk on sake rice wine. Although it didn't say how the God Susanoo was able to get the Dragon to drink the sake without getting killed himself but, of course he was a god! Of course we can't forget the tale of Saint George and the Dragon. How this tale began was when a dragon was making his nest at the spring which provided the main city at the time its water. Consequently the people of the town had to temporarily remove the dragon from its nest in order to
collect their water for daily use. To do so, they offered the dragon a daily human sacrifice. How they got their offering for the dragon, was by a drawing of lots daily. Eventually this is how we got the lottery today.
St.George and
the Dragon
However one day the lot as they called it happened to fall on the local princess. Of course this would change everything. They wouldn't want their princess of the monarchy to be a sacrifice! It was OK if the local towns girls were the sacrifice but, the princess not going to Happen or at least the King had tried his very best. So this is what happened in this tale of the princess and the dragon. The local monarchy had begged for her life with no result. This of course was her mother the queen and father the king. So the princess decided to offer herself to the dragon just like all the other girls of the town, not known that Saint George was traveling towards their town. Once he did arrive, Saint George did indeed save the princess and defeated the dragon. There are many different version of this tale. That I have noticed reading about it and it seems that the people of the town for some reason after Saint George killed the dragon abandon their ancestral paganism and convert to Christianity which I truly don't understand at ALL! How can killing a dragon be a reason for changing a religion! This seems very odd and unethical to me to change you religion over a dragon! Also being that I love dragons and all couldn't they find
a way to attract the dragon to a nice cave by a river so that they didn't need to kill the dragon. I mean if you think about it really the dragon was there for a while by the watering hole nesting not bothering any of the towns people until they need water. They could of thought of some better plan!
The Rescue of Agelica 
The rescue of Angelica by Ruggiero, and Orlando rescuing Olimpia. The monster that menaced Olimpia reconnected to the Greek myths; although Ariosto described it as a legend to the characters, the story was that the monster sprung from an offense against Proteus. In neither case did he marry the rescued woman to the rescuer. Edmund Spenser depicts St. George in The Faerie Queene, but while Una is a princess who seeks aid against a dragon, and her depiction in the opening with a lamb fits the iconography of St. George parents, the dragon imperils her parents' kingdom, and not her alone. These were the many different ways that the tales of the Dragon and the Princess have been depicted throughout the ages. And the Dragon Prince. I thought it would be interesting to do a bit of history on the story before I write the complete tale of the Dragon Prince. I hope that you find it interesting... Now below is the complete story of my favorite THE DRAGON PRINCE ~ ENJOY...
Below is the link to this story an many others Enjoy mydears...
THE DRAGON PRINCE
As I had promised - My most favorite story... 

In the High Middle Ages, the most renowned competitions of poetry in all of France were held at the court of Eleanor of Aquitaine. Once a year, celebrated troubadours gathered there to show off their art and a winner of this poetic contest would be announced.

On one occasion, the winner was an unknown and very handsome young man. He refused to give his name or say where he came from, despite the entreaties of Eleanor herself. There was a strange aura of mystery surrounding the anonymous troubadour. Together with his kindness and beauty, this soon made him one of the favorites among the ladies of the court. 
Griselda, a young and wistful maiden, the youngest daughter of the Lord of Foix,fell passionately in love with the stranger. Moved by the maidens entreaties, the troubadour agreed to marry her in secret and take her to his home. He made on condition; Griselda should never try to see him other than when he chose and she should never try to discover his identity. The lady, deeply in love, promised to comply with this strange condition. It seemed little to ask in exchange for being able to remain with her loved one. 
One night, the young Griselda had fallen asleep in the arms of her beloved in Eleanor of Aquitaine's Castle, where she lived. Suddenly on opening her eyes, she found herself in an unfamiliar room. It was a luxurious place, adorned with silk and precious stones and beside her lay her husband smiling benignly at her.
'You are in my mansion, which belongs to you," he said. "You may give orders to my servants and do whatever you please. There are stables with fine horses at your disposal and hunts men and hawks for hunting. You may come and go as you wish. You are my lady and my wife. And all that is mine is Yours. There are maidens ready to serve you and to carry out your every whim, dancers and musicians to entertain you and jewels and silks to adorn you. If you need anything, tell me and I will give it to you."
"I only wish for your love my lord," replied the young woman, bewildered. 
"That is good, my love, but do not ever forget your promise."
Griselda, full of happiness, demonstrated her compliance by flinging herself into the strong arms of her beloved husband. For a while this gentle lady kept her promise and believed she was in paradise. 
Her troubadour - Knight husband, who was kind and passionate ,spent most of his time with his wife. 
Occasionally, he would disappear into a locked room, but Griselda faithful to her promise, did not ask him any questions. 
Unfortunately, her curiosity gradually got the better of her and one day she decided to find out the secret of her mysterious Knight.  She crept up to the door of the forbidden room, which he had left ajar. And spied 
through the opening. Aghash, she watched as her husband turned into a huge dragon with golden scales and powerful wings.
She could not prevent a cry of utter horror escaping from her lips.
The Dragon Prince, Thus revealed wheeled around and saw his horrified wife in the doorway.
Deeply hurt by her broken promise, the Dragon Prince bade his servants to remove Griselda immediately to the court of Aquitaine and never again did he return to see her again. 
The lady Griselda could never forget her beloved and not a day went by without recalling the months of supreme happiness and bliss beside the disguised dragon had given her.
Penitent and full of grief, she wrote down her adventure, which is how this famous tale The Dragon Prince - That is the way the story has found its way to us...

AMATERASU-JAPANESE SUN GODDESS

AMATERASU-JAPANESE SUN GODDESS-
Amaterasu Goddess of the Sun
Good Afternoon my dears, Readers, Friends & Followers. I hope you all are having a fabulous Thursdayafternoon. For today's post I thought I would bring you to the world of an Japanese Sun Goddess and the Ancestress of the imperial family. There are many myths & legends that surround her form the cor of he indigenous faith Shinto "The way of the Gods''. I give you AMATERASU-
I have had this Myth/Legend tuck away for some time and I almost forgot I had it, but you know when you go through your stuff trying to find things; well this was one one of those days.. So I hope you Enjoy the tale as much as I did when a wrote it about a year ago. I will of course fix the tale as I post it for you all. 
Amaterasu Goddess of the Sun
Amaterasu was born when Izanagi - One of the first Japaneses Gods. She - Amaterasu was given the sky to rule as her domain and her duties also included weaving the robes of the Shinto Priestesses. Her brother Susanowo was made responsible for populating heaven with a new generation of Gods. At his request, Amaterasu broke his sword into three pieces, chewed them up and then breathed out a mist from which three Goddesses emerged. Then Susanowo asked her for the five strings of jewels she was wearings he cracked then between his teeth, then breathe on them and produced five Gods. The oldest of the Five Gods was considered to be the first of the Japanese Emperors. I hope I haven't lost you all I know that it is a bit confusing, but it will get better I promise:o Susanowo was so elated with his deeds that he lost control. Darkening the sky's with storm clouds and caused untold havoc on the land below with the humans. In spite of Amaterasu' entreaties, he wrecked  all the rice-fields of the Japanese people below, up-rooted trees and ruined their sacred temples. 
Amaterasu Japaneses Sun Goddess
The Japanese Shinto Sun goddess, ruler of the Plain of Heaven, whose name meant 'shining heaven', was   central figure in the Shinto pantheon and it seems that she was part of their Japaneses Imperial family too that, claims to have descended from her. She is the eldest Daughter of Izanagi and she was so bright and radiant that her parents sent her up the Celestial Ladder to the heavens, where she has ruled ever since.

Then there her brother the Storm-God; Susanowa, who ravages the earth with his enormous and terrible storms of wind, rain, lighting-storms and much more. So Amaterasu- the Japanese Sun Goddesses retreated to a cave because her brother Susanowa was so noisy. Amaterasu closed the cave with a huge boulder, too stop the terrible noise that her brother Susanowa was making while she was on earth. When she disappears into the cave it deprived the entire world of light and life. When this happened Demons ruled the world/earth. The other gods used everything in their power to lure Amaterasu out of the cave, but with no

avail. Yet they finally did prevail and it was Uzume who was the one who made it happen! How? Well this is how it all happened in the legend - Its seems that the laughter of the gods when they watch Uzume comical and obscene dances aroused Amaterasu's curiosity! So when Amaterasu the Sun Goddess emerged from her cave a streak of light had

escaped [note a streak nowadays people would call dawn or sunset]. So the Japanese Sun Goddess Amaterasu apparently saw her own brilliant reflection in a mirror, which Uzume had hung on a nearby tree that was very close to the entrance of the cave in which she was living. So when Amaterasu drew closer to the reflection of herself in the mirror to have a better look, the Gods had grabbed her and pulled her out of her safe cave. Doesn't sound very kind to me but then again these gods of all cultures have different ways of doing things. So as the legend goes once she was pulled out, the Sun Goddess then returned to the sky, and then brought the light back into the world. It seems later being that she's a forgiving Goddess, she created plenty full fields of rice, which was called inada, where she cultivated rice for her people. She also invented the art of weaving with the loom and taught the people how to cultivate the wheat and silkworms into beautiful fabrics for clothes.
It is said in the Japanese legend of this beloved Goddess Amaterasu that she has a main sanctuary which is on the island of Honshu. This temple apparently is pulled down every twenty years and then rebuild in its original form. Inside the inner sanctum is a represented  of the Goddess holding her mirror. I guess this is a great importunates to the Japanese culture. It just seems odd to me to tare down such a sanctuary of a great and kind Goddess every 20years but, then again I am not of the culture so
Amaterasu Japanese Sun Goddess 
I don't know their customs. Well to sum up these post I would say that the Goddess Amaterasu of the Japanese culture and Mythology was a beautiful and compassionate woman/goddess who ruled both by the sun and the heavenly fields of rice that she feed her Japanese people. She also was the supreme deity who was the divine ancestor of the Japanese Imperial family. Besides being the Sun Goddess having the responsibility for illuminating to entire world, she was also an accomplished weaver, with many attendants who had joined the goddess in weaving the stunning satins, silks [from the silk worms that she taught the Japanese people], and beautiful brocades for which japan is quite famous for. Uzume was a lesser goddess who was responsible for laughter and revelry. Although she did have her good points because she was the one that brought Amaterasu the Japanese Sun Goddess out of her deep depression and I can understand that completely personally for that I would give the goddess Uzume many good graces.  So I guess I should give some acknowledgement to her brothers her goes; As your probably already know the grace of Amaterasu and the 
greatness she was as the Japanese deity who along with her brothers , ruled the eight million gods of Japan. It seems that she and her brothers, the Storm God, Susano-o, and the Moon God, Tsukiyomi, shared the power of governing the universe.
Amaterasu
It seems that her brothers or at least her brother Susano-o God of the Storms was very jealous of his beautiful, powerful and popular sister Amaterasu. So much so that one time Susano-o slaughtered a young horse which was apparently a sacred horse of his sister Amaterasu. Well to show how vain and jealous her brother Susano-o was it was said that he threw the poor young colt bloodily body into the weaving room where there were many ladies working on looms on precious fabrics of fine silks. When the dead body of the young bloody colt was thrown into the room it seems that it was a mess of frighten attendants, looms flying everywhere and even in some legends it was said that that Amaterasu herself was wounded when her brother attacked her with a shuttle and some of her attendants were killed too. This was the act I found that but the graceful and kind Goddess into a deep depression and grieving over this violation act of her brother against her and her attendants. Its seems that is why she crept away from the heavens into a dark cave on the earth, into the high mountain and refused to return to the heavens again. However without her there would be no Sun, and rice fields lay dying in the endless night, while the people of
Goddess of the Sun Amaterasu
japan grew hungry every day on end to almost to starving. So in the legend of this tale Hundreds of the Gods
 and Goddesses would come to the entrance of her cave high in the mountains every day and would beg Uzume the Goddess of Mirth that came up with a plan, like I have said above in the tale, The Gods help by rolling a large bronze mirror in front of the entrance of the cave and the rest you know.. Now there is another myth and this one involves Amaterasu brother , the Moon God Tsukiyomi. What happen here was, her brother had killed a goddess that he felt had insulted him. Apparently The Goddess Amaterasu was so angered which didn't happen that often but, since her brother had taken a life, she told her brother God of the Moon Tsukiyomi that she never wanted to see him ever again. which happened because if you thing about it She is the goddess of the Sun and he is the God of the Moon so they are always at different times on the sky. Amaterasu to please come out, but her grief was so huge that even with the Hundreds of Gods/Goddesses that came to her entrance of her cave could not move her with their pleas. It was
So that is the legend and the Myth of the Goddess of Sun Amaterasu and her brothers and Uzume who 
helped the Goddess Amaterasu out of her depression with the power of laughter and dance.
I hope that you all enjoy the legend of the Sun Goddess Amaterasu
