    Ireland - Site of the 1st World War? Battle of Ventry

    18/12/2025 | 30 mins.

    Send us a textIrish Mythology tells of a battle where a  united world attacked Ireland. The Battle of Ventry (Cath Fionntrá) is a legendary, epic tale from the Fenian Cycle of Irish mythology.  It tells the tale of the invasion of Ireland in the 3rd century by the "King of the World," Daire Donn, and a massive European army that he united.  The world was united to conquer Ireland because Fionn mac Cumhaill had eloped with the King of Frances's wife and daughter. The one year one day war was fought at Ventry Bay in County Kerry. The Fianna had fighters from other groups in Ireland to include the Tuath Dé Danann.  This battle included heroic single combat, magical elements like special weapons, and devastating losses.  The battle ultimately ended with the Fianna's victory and the invaders' retreat, though the Fianna experienced a horrific number of casualties. Support the showIrish Mythology - Mythical Cycle - Book of Invasions

    The Celts and Bees

    16/12/2025 | 20 mins.

    Send us a textThe Celts had laws around bees and a custom called telling the bees. The "Celt bee laws," more accurately called the Brehon Laws' Bechbretha (Bee Judgements) in ancient Ireland, were detailed regulations from around the 7th century (though based on older customs) governing beehives, swarms, honey, and beekeeping, emphasizing community sharing, property rights (like a finder's fee for wild swarms), and recognizing bees' sacred importance as symbols of wealth, wisdom, and connection to the Otherworld. These laws detailed who got what honey from wild or domestic hives, handled disputes between neighbors, and even outlined sharing a portion of swarms to encourage wider beekeeping."Telling the bees" was and still is a folklore tradition where you inform your beehives of major life events (births, deaths, marriages) or bad news, believing it ensures the bees' prosperity and loyalty.  For a death they would drape hives in black cloth so they could participate in the mourning.   Support the showIrish Mythology - Mythical Cycle - Book of Invasions

    Irish Water Fairies

    20/1/2025 | 34 mins.

    Send us a textIrish water fairies are not like Tinkerbell; they are monsters.  This episode I share some of my favorites:Muirdris, the “Sea Bramble” or “Sea Briar” - A huge, mysterious, undefined horror that inflates and deflates, expands and contracts like a bellows. It has features of a thorn-bush, with branches that stings, and its appearance alone is deadly. Alp-Luachra - In Celtic mythology, a Joint-eateror Just-halver the Alp-luachra is a type of fairy who sits invisibly and consumes half of their victim's food. Chailleach- The word "Cailleach" literally means "old woman, hag" and comes from the Old Irish word caillech, which means "veiled one".  The serpent of Loch Chraili - Similarto the Loch Ness monster  The white trout, the legend of Cong - A woman turned fish pining for her dead fiance  An Dobharchú  - Translated means ‘water hound’, or ‘hound of deep’. Thought to be a cross between a giant otter and a hound, Dobhar Chu is about seven-foot-long, or about the size of a crocodile. In fact, it is also known as the Irish crocodile.Support the showIrish Mythology - Mythical Cycle - Book of Invasions

They often lived nomadically in camps by rivers and bodies of water.The Ancient Greeks called Ireland The Ancient Island! Ireland has 70% of Europe's rock art. The megalithic structures have many stories and New Grange is older than the pyramids and Stonehenge. These residents of Ireland were observers of the night sky who understood cosmic patterns. Irish Mythology has magical journeys to the Otherworld, stories of Irish heroes like Cú Chulainn, tales of monsters and time-travel that inspired Tolkien Lords of the Rings as well as the books of C.S. Lewis. A whole world of amazing stories are waiting for you!https://www.facebook.com/ClanNaGaelDEhttps://www.irishrosegiftshop.com/
