Dyn Hysbys Posted August 1, 2011 Report Share Posted August 1, 2011 (edited) Merry Meet Everyone,Just wanted to wish a Happy Lughnasadh / Calan Awst to all the Witches, Druids, and other Pagans out there! It is one of the four ancient Celtic festivals which divided the year into equal quarters. In Irish mythology the god Lugh instituted games and a fair as a funerary celebration for his foster mother, the agricultural goddess Tailtiu. It is a first fruits / harvest festival in Celtic areas; in Wales it is called Calan Awst (the Calends of August). It was (and is) celebrated with bonfires, and was a time for trial marriages / handfastings. Edited August 1, 2011 by Gruffydd Mawr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
