Website Updates: New Content

We have three new articles up (two of which are tweaked versions of articles from the old site and one is a brand new article by our Leas-Uachtarán, Annie). They are:

Daily Rites – a short, but pithy, piece discussing the daily rituals found within Gaelic Polytheism.

A Gift for a Gift: Offerings – a straight-forward essay giving some background information on the history, types, and handling of offerings, plus it touches on the argument for taking omens.

A Beginner’s Guide to Old Irish Pronunciation – a wonderfully user-friendly introduction to Old Irish, which includes basics and a pronunciation guide of names, words and phrases.

We have also added some new music (Dúlaman, Gabhaim Molta Bride, Bothag na h-Airidh and Tha Bainn’ Aig Na Caoraich Uile) to the library but not all have phonetics or translations yet, if anyone can lend a hand there we’d very much welcome the help. And last but not least, we have a new header on the site showcasing Annie’s lovely photograph from Argyll.

“Many of you also participated in the 2007 Samhain event where we re-established the old custom of lighting the signal fires on Tlachtga, Tara, and the surrounding hills. Want to do it again?”
