Irish Paganism boasts a rich history that incorporates beliefs from various traditions and religions. Before the arrival of the Celts on the shores of Britain, Ireland was home to indigenous folk beliefs based on the powers of nature. On settling in Ireland, the Celts brought a somewhat similar but new religion, and it began to spread
After a few hundred years of Celtic rule, Christianity arrived, causing another significant shift in the life of the Irish Pagans. As you will learn from this book, contemporary Irish Pagan practices incorporate elements taken from all the different religious influences that came with rulers and invaders throughout their history
The book also provides a comprehensive insight into the life of the Celts, including the Druids, their most educated class. You will read about how the Pagans swore their oaths by the "Three Realms" – Land, Sea, and Sky and which festivals were celebrated in their calendars. You'll discover how each event on the traditional Pagan Wheel of the Year has a fundamental role in a practitioner's life and that it must be honored accordingly.
