Living, writing, and learning
the lessons of consciousness
Like all ancient peoples, the Celts lived in harmony with natural cycles. From this acceptance of the ebb and flow of life, they began to understand how these cycles are deeply related to individual growth. As time passed, they couched their wisdom in a huge body of legends, many of which have been passed down to us through the generations. These legends, which cradle the wisdom of the Celtic magical tradition, have survived the centuries because humans have always instinctively recognized their essential truth and validity.
Today, we have moved so far away from these natural cycles that we've all but forgotten the truths that our ancient ancestors knew.
