Celtic spirituality, Ireland

 

A place of pilgrimage to many from across the world, southern Ireland is awash with pre-Christian archeological sites (stone circles, burial mounds, ancient fortresses) and early Christian memorials (abbeys, monestaries, churches, grave architecture).

Relics to the power of the Celtic Tiger were in evidence during our visit and we were surprised how much Polish culture (shops, bars and restaurants) had been absorbed into the Gaelic towns and villages. (Apparently Ireland's recent problems are leading many Poles to now return to their homeland.)

I met a wonderful sensitive called Sylvia Shirley during my visit and we shared an afternoon discussing our appreciation of faeries.
