Celebrations in the annual cycle
The Celts knew eight major festivals that took place throughout the year. There were four sun festivals and four moon festivals. The sun festivals were the equinoxes and the longest and shortest days of the year. The lunar festivals always fell between these solar festivals. These festivals were characterised by intense joie de vivre, but also by a deep respect for the changing natural conditions.
When we can tune back into these natural rhythms, we nourish our souls and strengthen our connection to nature and the cosmos. We honour what supports and surrounds us every day with mindfulness and respect. In our modern age, where we have electric light and central heating and are dominated by the hectic pace of everyday life, there is a danger that we no longer feel the natural rhythm, the power of the sun and moon and the magic of day and night changes. Everything is uniform, without highs and lows, without the wonderful magic that surrounds us.
