Old Ways, Old Secrets
Pagan Ireland: Myth * Landscape * Tradition
JO KERRIGAN
Sinopsis
In a land like ours, the old beliefs bring pleasure and wisdom…
Exploring the legends, special places and treasured practices of old, Jo Kerrigan reveals a rich world beneath Irelands modern layers.
So many of todays Irish traditions reach back to our ancient past, to the natural world: climbing to the summit of a mountain at harvest time; circling a revered site three, seven or nine times in a sun-wise direction; hanging offerings on a thorn tree; bringing the ailing and infirm to a sacred well.
Old Ways, Old Secrets shows us how to uncover the wisdom of the past, as fresh as it is ancient.
Inviting, lyrical text and beautiful, atmospheric photographs ... A fascinating read.Evening Echo on West Cork: A Place Apart
