Download or read book The Celtic Way of Seeing written by Frank MacEowen and published by New World Library. This book was released on 2010-10-05 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Celtic Way of Seeing posits a direct link between the eye and the heart, a link that connects seekers to forces, energies, and knowledge that exist beyond the corporeal world. This book explores this concept through retelling the traditional story “The Settling of the Manor of Tara,” which describes the spiritual divisions of Ireland and the four directions — north, south, east, and west. The orientations to the four directions and the center become the focal point of a series of simple meditations that guide readers to “see” the directions, making the Irish Spirit Wheel come alive in their daily lives.
Download or read book Valley of the Shadow written by Peter Tremayne and published by Minotaur Books. This book was released on 2000-03-01 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Ireland of A.D. 666, Sister Fidelma is sent by her brother, Colgu of Cashel, the king of Muman, to the remote valley of Gleann Geis, whose inhabitants still adhere to the ancient Druidic ways. Her mission is to negotiate with the chieftain Laisre for permission to build a Christian church and school in his territory. Fidelma's task won't be an easy one, though, as Laisre's clan is known for its hostility to the new religion and fierce adherence to the old. Approaching the valley, Fidelma and her companion, Brother Eadulf, come upon a particularly grisly scene--the slain bodies of thirty-three young men, placed in a sunwise circle and bearing the marks of the ancient threefold death of pagan times. As an emissary of her brother the king, as well as her position as a dalaigh--an advocate of the Brehon courts--it is Fidelma's responsibility to uncover the truth behind the gruesome murders. Within the forbidden valley, Fidelma embarks upon an inquiry that not only places her in the gravest personal danger but upon which rests the continuing peace of her brother's kingdom.

Download or read book On Celtic Tides written by Chris Duff and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2007-04-01 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sea kayak battles the freezing Irish waters as the morning sun rises out of the countryside. On the western horizon is the pinnacle of Skellig Michael-700 feet of vertical rock rising out of exploding seas. Somewhere on the isolated island are sixth-century monastic ruins where the light of civilization was kept burning during the Dark Ages by early Christian Irish monks. Puffins surface a few yards from the boat, as hundreds of gannets wheel overhead on six foot wing spans. The ocean rises violently and tosses paddler and boat as if they were discarded flotsam. This is just one day of Chris Duff's incredible three month journey.
Download or read book Celtic Shadow written by William Crosgrove and published by . This book was released on 2016-09-22 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Celtic Shadow is the second volume of this continuing story:In the year 382 CE, the Romans are abandoning their hold on Britain. They leave behind disaffected soldiers, angry Celts, and competing religions. Darcy Morgan, orphaned at birth, is adopted into a new tribe, then kidnapped by raiding slavers at age nine. Now, after two years in servitude, she just wants to go home. In the strange world of Britain in the 4th century CE, competing religions, rival cultures, barbarian invasions, the ambitious plans of a Roman general, and warring armies stand in her way. They may not survive the encounter.Based in actual history, this story explores a relatively unknown period and culture. Britain, in the late 4th century CE, had a lot going on. The Romans, suffering many troubles in their empire, were pulling out and leaving behind a power vacuum that many would try to fill. Three religions vie with one another: the newly introduced official Christian religion of Rome; the recently outlawed, but still popular, ancient polytheistic religion of Rome; and the druidism of the Celts, nearly destroyed 300 years earlier by Julius Caesar and others, now with a chance for renewal. Three cultures compete for control of the land. The Romans are ordered to return to Gaul, but their general, Magnus Maximus, refuses and instead tries to build his own empire in Britain; Celtic tribes who see the Roman retreat as their chance to establish their own unified kingdom; and barbarian invaders who look to take the rich lands of Britain for their own.And, finally, there is Darcy Morgan, a nine-year-old orphan girl of mysterious origins who is adopted into a tribe of druidic Celts, but is then kidnapped by raiders and taken to a distant land. She spends years in slavery, then makes a harrowing escape. Her attempt to find her way home brings her to new and strange places, people, and religions. Along the way, she collects good friends and vicious enemies, and discovers the truth about her own past. No one, not religions, not generals, not cultures, not even Britain itself, will survive unchanged their contact with this remarkable young girl.
Download or read book Magnus Dei written by John O'Loughlin and published by Centretruths Digital Media. This book was released on 2022-04-18 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With some twenty-eight cycles of numbered aphorisms, MAGNUS DEI is something of a magnus opus, even if still at quite some rung-like distance from the top rung of John O'Loughlin's ladder-like literary oeuvre. Nevertheless, with a number of elementally-conditioned quadruplicities and gender-conditioned dichotomies that open up new vistas of insight and logical certitude, this work brings the ideological philosophy of Social Transcendentalism a significant stage closer to its definitive realization, as we analyze the various quadruplicities in relation to the fundamental gender dichotomy which divides objectivity from subjectivity and soma from psyche or, in common parlance, body from mind, and draw appropriate conclusions.
Download or read book Celtic Spirituality written by Philip Freeman and published by St. Martin's Essentials. This book was released on 2021-06-22 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Celtic Spirituality, acclaimed translator and scholar Philip Freeman allows the voices of the Celts to speak once more. Though the Celtic civilization has long disappeared, lingering traces of their spirituality haunt Ireland and the surrounding land. Tantalizing snippets of faded manuscript pages, ancient stone carvings, and spells from the mystery-shrouded Druids have sparked the imagination of generations of modern seekers. Translated from their original languages—Gaulish, Latin, Irish, and Welsh—the passages and stories in Celtic Spirituality are true artifacts of the Celts' vibrant and varied religion from both the pre-Christian and early Christian period. From a ritual of magical inspiration to stories of the ancient gods and adventures of long-forgotten heroes, Freeman has unearthed a stunning collection of Celtic work. The translation is accessible to the modern reader, but maintains the beauty and vibrancy of the original. Celtic Spirituality includes material that has never been translated before, offering a new glimpse into the wisdom and wild magic of the Celts.
