Celtic Adornments....

 

Here amongst my Celtic designs, you'll find the odd little quote of Irish charm.

An Irish Welcome



Here's Céad Míle Fáilte to friend and to rover
That's a greeting that's Irish as Irish can be
It means you are welcome
A thousand times over
Wherever you come from, Whosoever you be!

greenbeadedcladdaghnecklet3.jpg        greenbeadedcladdaghnecklet1.jpg

Hand made beaded claddagh charm necklace. The charm is sterling silver. The beads consist of clear quartz crystal, green faceted (genuine) swarovski (various sizes) & silver beads. All findings are solid silver. Strung on a very strong wire thread.

£39.00

The Claddagh is not an ancient Celtic design but a 16th century Irish symbol of eternal love and friendship. The heart at the centre of the design is symbolic of love, the hands around it symbolise friendship, while the crowns represent everlasting loyalty. To Irish people, the design is instantly recognisable, as the famous characteristic ring from the small fishing village of Claddagh near Galway, Ireland. Its creator, goldsmith Richard Joyce, named the ring after the village he settled in (after an adventurous and hair raising life being kidnapped by pirates, sold as a slave, trained as a metalworker by a Moorish goldsmith, and eventually released by a Kings mandate).


In addition to its powerful iconography (the hands are friendship, the crown loyalty and the heart is love), the ring symbolised the wearers status:

* Those who are unattached and free should wear a ring on their right hand with the heart pointing out.
* If spoken for, wear the ring on the right hand with the heart pointing in.
* Moreover, if married (so your heart is taken), then wear the ring on the left hand with the heart pointing in.

Triqetra / Charmed necklace & Earring set.

 

The Trinity Knot has been found in various Celtic illuminated manuscripts
Called the Triqetra, which means "three-cornered" in Latin.
To early Christians, it symbolized both the Trinity and fish ("Pisces") - shown as three fishes.
The Circle represents unending love
In the TV series Charmed it means "The Power of Three acting as One." This triangular Celtic knot is said to represent the three planes of existence - physical, mental and spiritual. Notice how, although the three points are clearly separate, they are interlocked together, symbolising the connection between the three planes. Like the triskel, the symbol could also be linked to the trinity of the goddess, or the Christian trinity.

Celtic Dreams Earrings

celticcrossamythstconnemaramarbleea.jpg

 

Celtic connemara marble with juicy amethyst beads, sterling silver Celtic crosses & findings.

Connemara Marble is one of Ireland's most original products. Geologists estimate this natural green rock, quarried at the Streams town Marble Quarries two miles north west of Clifden, is about 500 million years old. Unique to the region, the marble shows twisted and interlocking bands of serpentine, in various shades of light green and dark green.

All marbles have a balancing and soothing effect on the physical body.

This wonderful marble from Connemara in the West of Ireland puts us in touch with our Irish Heritage and helps us to understand and empathise with our ancestors.

 Corresponds to the Heart Chakra for understanding and inner knowledge

For all signs of the zodiac

A good luck stone!

It's also gorgeously sparkly & teams well with the green of connemara marble.

A little about the Celtic goddess Brigit.

(Pan-Celtic) [breet or breed] Also Brigit, Brigid, Bride, Brighid, Bridget, Brigindo, and Banfile. Her name comes from the old Irish word brigh, meaning "Power"; "Renown"; "Fiery Arrow or Power" (Breo-saighead). Daughter of The Dagda and one of the Great mother Goddess of Ireland. At one time in History most of Ireland was united in praise and worship of her. She probably was one and the same with Dana, the first great mother Goddess of the Irish. Called the poetess, often called the Triple Brigids, Three Blessed Ladies of Britain, The Three Mothers. Another aspect of Danu; associated with Imbolc. She had an exclusive female priesthood at Kildare and an ever-burning sacred fire. The number of her priestesses was nineteen, representing the nineteen-year cycle of the "Celtic Great Year". Her kelles were sacred prostitutes and her soldiers brigands. Goddess of fire, fertility, the hearth, all feminine arts and crafts, and martial arts. Healing, physicians, agriculture, inspiration, learning, poetry, divination, prophecy, smithcraft, animal husbandry, love, witchcraft, occult knowledge.

A major Celtic pastoral deity, described as a "wise woman. Brid became "Christianized" as St. Brigit of Kildare, who is said to have lived from 450-523 AD and founded the first female Christian monastery community in Ireland. In reality her shrine at Kildare was desecrated and adopted as a holy site by Christian missionaries who turned her into their Saint Brigit in an attempt to Christianize her pagan followers. She was originally celebrated on February 1 in the festival of Imbolc, which coincided with the beginning of lactation in ewes and was regarded in Scotland as the date on which Brigit deposed the blue-faced hag of winter (see Cailleach Bheur). The Christian calendar adopted the same date for the Feast of St. Brigit. There is no record that a Christian saint ever actually existed, but in Irish mythology she became the midwife to the Virgin Mary. The name can be traced into many Irish and European place names. It is also akin to Brahati which means "exalted one" in Sanskrit.

In pre-Roman Britain, she was the tutelary Goddess of the Brigantes tribe, and like so many Celtic Goddesses, she has some riverine associations.

Brid represents the supernal mother, fertility, and creative inspiration. She has also been worshipped as a warrioress and protectress, a healer, a guardian of children, a slayer of serpents, a sovereign, and a Goddess of fire and the sun. Still other sources say she was the Goddess of agriculture, animal husbandry, medicine, crafting and music.
