Happiest of Birthdays to Emeritus Professor of the School of Cosmic Physics at DIAS @Luke_Drury 🎂
Customs including bonfires🔥 goddess celebration, banishing evil spirits 👺and festivals of feasting and dancing. Traditions varied depending Celtic regions as did the name of the goddess 😇 @SCSLibrary #celtic #traditions #festivals
The #SummerSolstice, the day when there are more hours of daylight than any other time of the year. Due the axial tilt of the earth being at its closest to the sun. It was one of the sacred Celtic days which they would celebrate through a variety of customs. #DIASdiscovers
