Rena begins her letter, thus;
“Here I am!”
I had been playing Enya’s song “If I Could Be Where You Are’. I had begun a painting of her as Fair Rosamond Clifford. She agreed to be my Muse. My portrait of her is almost done. The seascape behind me is titled ‘Rosmarin’ after the city Ross in Marin County. She is my angel who comes from the sea carrying a glass float that looks like the world. I only heard of the Planatir, yesterday! Rosmarin is giving me the Planatir. With it, I found Rena again, and, her late husband. When I reveal their connection to Churchill, and Fair Rosamond, I will indeed own the world. My enemeies played their cards right into my hands, and……….The Hand of God!
It is written. Kismet!
Jon ‘The Nazarite’
The historical manifestation of the Rose of the World is seen as the joining of authentic world religions into a new union. The union will not be the dissolution of the great religions, but a harmonization. The five petals of the Rose of the World are the five great world religions joining together. The Rose of the World will be a moral and spiritual authority rather than a political power, but the influence of the Rose on the world’s political, economic and cultural life will lead to a transformation of human society across the world. Harmony, justice, peace and spiritual life will flower under the guidance of the Rose.
The Eternal Feminine
The concluding chapter in the English edition of the Rose of the World concerns the spiritual meaning of femininity. What Andreev calls the Universal Feminine or the Eternal Feminine is an essential aspect of God that seeks expression. In Christianity, it appears in the form of the Mother Church, the Madonna, the Mother of God and as Sophia. Andreev experiences the Eternal Feminine as a universal spiritual reality that is inadequately expressed in these images. It is interesting that after presenting a startling vision of metaphysical realities, he states he finds it particularly difficult to discuss the idea of the Eternal Feminine within the context of Christian theology.
In the parashah, God creates the world, and Adam and Eve. They eat fruit that God had forbidden them, and God expels them from the Garden of Eden. One of their sons, Cain, becomes the first murderer, killing his brother Abel out of jealousy. Adam and Eve have other children, whose descendants populate the Earth, but each generation becomes more and more degenerate until God, despairing, decides to destroy humanity. Only one man, Noah, finds God’s favor
Rena as Britania and American Eagle
Rena’s late husband was Former Head of the British Defence Staff which was founded by Winston Churchill to insure these two allies would forever be on the same side. It appears Theresa May is responding to the pledge of unity in meeting with Don Juan Trumpster.
In 1970 I asked Rena to marry me, but, she was too young. Consider our beautiful children and their contributions to the Creative Irish Rosamond Line. I was poor and homeless when we met. We camped for fifty days in the beautiful wilderness of America. I knew nothing about my Patriotic roots, and Captain Samuel Rosamond.
I was once the low-life scum, the perfect example of an abusive male. I was not worthy to be in her company, least the same city. She went to live on the Isle of Wight with her rich, and elderly hero of the Empire, leaving me standing alone on Freedom Shores.
What great tales of old, what lines of beautiful poetry, can bring you home, and restore, the liberty we once owned atop Rose Mountain, above the fog, the clouds – the wings of muses soar! My beautiful American Dream.

Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn asked if May would discuss the issue of misogyny with Trump and raise the concerns of 100,000 people who marched over the weekend in an anti-Trump pro-women’s rights demonstration in London. May responded that she was not afraid to “speak frankly” with the President, though she did not confirm she would bring up the issue of women’s rights with him.

Telegraph Reporters 20 January 2017 • 1:11pm
US President-elect Donald Trump has written to Theresa May after she sent him a copy of a landmark wartime address given by Winston Churchill stressing the need for close Anglo-American relations.
Downing Street would not go into the details of the letter, but said part of it referred to the gift of the Churchill speech sent shortly after Christmas.
“Is there a sign I should know?” Enya
Mr Churchill’s address was made following the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbour in 1941, and in it the war-time prime minister expressed his hope that the British and American people would “walk together in majesty, in justice and in peace”.
LABOUR leader Jeremy Corbyn has urged President Trump to put the “misogyny and the racism” of his presidential campaign behind him and instead “reach out” to all parts of the United States.
During a speech in Glasgow, Mr Corbyn revealed he had gifted a book about Labour’s founder Keir Hardie to Barack Obama and suggested Mr Trump could also learn from the life of the Scottish politician and trade unionist.
Mr Corbyn said: “Maybe I should send a copy of the same book about what Keir Hardie thought so it is in the White House irrespective of who the president is.
“I think the whole world needs to learn a lesson from Keir Hardie, he came up from the most appalling poverty and circumstances, and gave himself an education.
“He filled his home with learning and books. What an example he was and what an inspiration he was. I think it would be a really good message to President-elect Trump.”
Mr Corbyn said he hoped President Trump “puts behind him the misogyny, the racism and the remarks about Mexicans and Muslims he made during the presidential election campaign”.
In contrast, First Minister Nicola Sturgeon congratulated Mr Trump and vowed to co-operate with new administration.
She said: “There are great global challenges to be faced and I wish his administration well in dealing with them.
“The ties of family, friendship and business that bind our countries are very deep and long- standing.
“We share fundamental values of equality, tolerance and human rights, and I hope to see these values upheld during the new President’s term in office.”
Prime Minister Theresa May told the Financial Times she will urge the new president not to undermine European unity when they meet in Washington soon.
Mrs May said she was sure he “recognises the importance and significance of Nato”, adding: “I’m also confident the USA will recognise the importance of the co- operation we have in Europe to ensure our collective defence and collective security.”
British Prime Minister Theresa May told US Republicans Thursday that the United States and the UK must stand “strong” together but said that the days of protracted military interventions in foreign countries were over.
Two nations shaped the world
Irene (Rena) Victoria Easton
Yesterday I came across an old e-mail from a high school friend of Rena Christensen. He admonished me for making this Midwest Beauty out to be a goddess. I had compared her beauty to the face that launched a thousand ships.
This bid me to launch another search for my Muse. What had become of her. Who did she marry? What is her surname? Where are her two children? We know she married an Admiral and lived on the Isle of Wight with her two children. Last night I found and obituary for Rena’s beautiful twenty year old daughter. I wept, like I did when I learned Rena lost her husband. I found her husband.
Rena was afraid to even look at the ocean when we met in 1970. She told me she was afraid of it. Two hours later she does something so dramatic and beautiful in order to get over her fear. Admiral Sir Ian Easton captained Aircraft Carriers. He flew planes in WW2. Ian was Former Head of the British Defense Staff that just met in Washington to discuss cuts in military budgets. He put boats in battle for the Cup. He was seventy one when he died. Rena is sixty one today. I was twenty three when we met, and she was seventeen.
One day when we went to our little beach, Rena disappeared. I found her on the other side of a large rock in a precarious place. She was intently looking at the ocean waves. I knew she was trying to see her future, set a direction for the course of her life.
“Rena. Don’t panic, but, you are not safe there. Come towards me.”
She put these words on her husband’s monument;
“Sweet and low, winds of the western sea”
It is beautiful women like Irene Easton, that put young men in the middle of the seven seas, looking over the horizon for their Helen. The legend of Brutus of Troy, founder of Britain,
is what propels this nation forward, and puts these Trojans in suspense, as they wait for the birth of Kate Windsor’s first child. This mother to be modeled a sexy dress on a runway, and caught the eye of a prince. Beauty rules the waves!
And everywhere Beauty go, the Poet is soon to follow.
I do not regret taking poetic liberty with my muse. English Poetry is the engine of love, a ring of fire that protects that Isle. Irene Victoria is a British subject that came out of Grand Island Nebraska to see what she shall see. Rena has seen the world. Good for her!

KATHLEEN A. “KATIE” EASTON
Former Bozeman High School state debate champion Kathleen Anne
“Katie” Easton, passed away as a result of an automobile accident early
Sunday, Jan. 10, 1999. She was born April 20, 1979, to Irene (Rena) and

She graduated from Bozeman High School in 1997.
During high school, she completed a stellar career in forensics. As
a policy debater in her sophomore and junior years, she compiled a 72.54
percent win/loss record. In her senior year, she switched to
parliamentary debate and became a dominant force in the event, winning
the 1997 Montana state championship and the District NFL qualifying
tournaments. At the 1997 Nationals Katie reached the semifinal round of

K.C.B. D.S.C.; Her maternal grandmother, Ann Last Christensen, her

WASHINGTON — In what is believed to be the first time since the 1940s, the entire British defense staff will be here March 25 to discuss long-range strategy and the impact of budget cuts with their U.S. counterparts, according to U.S. and British sources.
The meeting is reminiscent of the Combined Chiefs of Staff, when British and American military leaders joined forces during World War II. Both nations are undergoing significant budgetary reductions and will continue to rely on each other in future years for support. Understanding what capabilities will survive and won’t is essential to long-term strategic planning.
Easton joined the Royal Navy in 1931 and qualified as a pilot at the start of World War II in which he saw active service on aircraft carriers.[1] On 4 January 1941, flying a Fairey Fulmar of 803 Squadron from HMS Formidable during a raid on Dakar he force landed, with his aircrewman Naval Airman James Burkey and was taken prisoner and held by the Vichy French at a camp near Timbuktu until released in November 1942.[2] He was appointed Assistant Director of the Tactical and Weapons Policy Division at the Admiralty in 1960 and was seconded to the Royal Australian Navy as Captain of HMAS Watson in 1962.[1] He went on to be Naval Assistant to the Naval Member of the Templer Committee on Rationalisation of Air Power in 1965, Director of Naval Tactical and Weapons Policy Division at the Admiralty in 1966 and Captain of the aircraft carrier HMS Triumph in 1968.[1] After that he was made Assistant Chief of Naval Staff (Policy) in 1969, Flag Officer for the Admiralty Interview Board in 1971 and Head of British Defence Staff and Senior Defence Attaché in Washington D. C. in 1973.[1] He last posting was as Commandant of the Royal College of Defence Studies in 1976: he commissioned armourial bearings for the College which were which were presented during a visit by the Queen in November 1977.[3] He retired in 1978.[1]

The Commandant of the Royal College of Defence Studies was a UK senior serving military officer between 1972 and 2001. The post rotated through the three branches of the armed forces in turn. In 1971 the old Imperial Defence College became the Royal College of Defence Studies. In 1991, the post was downgraded to three-star, and then in 2001, it was opened up to competition through public advertisement. Subsequent incumbents have as yet all been senior retired military officers.

British America’s Cup Challenge (United Kingdom)[edit]
From the Royal Thames Yacht Club, White Crusader was designed by Ian Howlett and was a traditional 12 metre design evolved from the DeSavery Lionhart ’83 boat of the previous Americas Cup event. However, White Crusader II was a radical design and designed by David Hollam. This second boat was used as a trial horse against White Crusader, but the team eventually decided to use the more conventional designed boat. Tank testing was carried out at Southampton University and HMS Haslar. The deadline for acceptance of challenges was 1 April 1986 and Admiral Sir Ian Easton wrote his own personal cheque for $16,000 as an entry fee deposit. Harold Cudmore acted as skipper-tactician and starting helmsman who then handed over the helm to Chris Law for the remainder of each races. Both boats were originally named simply Crusader One and Two but the “White” part of their names were added when millionaire Graham Walker (Of White Horse whiskey fame) gave heavy sponsorship to the British challengers at the last minute before the event started so the “White” was added to their names.

Rena Easton’s Christmas Letter
Two years ago before I recieved a letter from Rena, I learned she was a widow living on the Isle of Wight. I called to her in a blog, with this song.
Rena begins her letter, thus;
“Here I am!”
She is responding to another post. She had not read this one posted on July 26 2012
https://rosamondpress.com/2012/07/26/jesus-and-orpheus-in-hades/
I thought she was dead. I grieved. Her ghost came to console me, be by my side. As fate would have it Rena’s daughter died in a car accident when she was twenty..

Sunday, Jan. 10, 1999. She was born April 20, 1979, to Irene (Rena) and
Admiral Sir Ian Easton, K.C.B. D.S.C. on the Isle of Wight, England.
I had compared our relationship to Orpheus and Eurydice. This time, I rise from Hades to be with my beautiful and beloved muse once again. I called to her, while looking down at the waves. She emerged from a darkened door in te dead of night, and asked;
“Can I walk with you?”
“A year ago the spirit of Rena Christiansen came to live with me. She is still here. She married a Commodore and lived on the Isle of Weight. Her husband died, leaving her with two children. Her grief at being left behind was overwhelming. She had no ties with her natal family, and may not have been accepted by her husband’s family. I believe Rena died in an automobile accident in a foreign land, and her husband’s upper class family took her children into their closed circle. When I began my portrait of Rena – she winged home. She is my Eurydice. She is Andromeda I was her Hero who rescued her by the sea. I took her to the mountain of the ‘Sleeping Maiden’ and showed her heaven, we above the blanket of fog that came in my the sea.”
