 It's that time of year again, time to go sunset watching! The above pics are from a sacred site called Rathra which is part of the complex of Rathcroghan monuments in County Roscommon. From the monument you can watch the Sun set into the Holy mountain of Croagh Crom aka The Reek. You can read about our experience finding this monumental sunset aspect on a previous blog post here.

 Our gathering to bless a 3D printed copy of our Crom stone head. It is hollow and we each put a charge or blessings or positive vibes etc into multiple quartz rocks that were put inside the head. Hot beeswax was added (John and Frank) and we blessed more quartz rocks until it was full. This Crom was made for this time.  The 'fully dressed' version of our 3D printed head. A non-invasive scan was created to print a 100% replica of our real ancient Crom. Then we dressed it after studying the shadows of stone Crom when I identified his eyebrows, third eye and exact number of teeth and complete lack of ears. Two quartz eggs from the Tuath Dé Danann Four Treasures altar were selected and each had a black dot 'pupil' added - these eyes were then attached by warm beeswax to the eye sockets. A suede mushroom cap was crafted and fitted to complete the look.  Before we were gifted with the Crom stone head which is an actual ancient pre catholic era stone head I had spotted a rock with a smile on the Belmullet peninsula while on a day out breathing the fresh sea air from the Atlantis Ocean. The smile was just a thin crack in the pointy end but it inspired me... and it is untouched, ie the same as when I found it. There was a balance / symmetry in this seaside rock and I easily imagined the eyes, eyebrows and the nose too. One hour of bang bang chipping with a hammer and sharpened chisel gave the result you can see now.  We have three Crom Heads now, all kept in the Hemp Hall! The spring equinox for Ireland is called Earrach and we celebrate it on the 17th of March as we honour Crom. At true mid-night 00:33 on the Spring day of equal half's we do not get 12 hours of Sun, we get 11 hours: 58 minutes: 52 seconds of Sun, the previous day we got 11:54:37 and the day after we will get 12:03:07 - this shows when we celebrate Earrach. Think of it, this is what our Ancestors saw - the Dragon from the Realm of Sea, flying in the Realm of Sky while blessing the Realm of Land! Crom Abú   Blood Red Full Moon Eclipse over Ireland from 4am to 6:50am on Friday morning 14th of March 2025. It is perfectly safe to watch this lunar eclipse with the naked eye and the Aurora / Northern Lights could also be visible in Irish skies tonight too. Not really visible from Dublin or east coast cities as this event happens low on the western horizon just before Sunrise - best option for seeing it is from high ground or on top of mountains looking west as the Full Moon is setting.

Read this carefully, read it twice, connect to the true time that our Ancestors used.In Ireland the spring equinox happens on the 17th of March this year. But in Cairo Egypt it is on the 16th because that is the day nearest to equal day/night with 12 hours: 00 minutes: 18 seconds of Sun. For us at true midnight 00:33 on the 17th of March looking true south (to where the Sun was at 12:33 high noon ie not map north or magnetic north) we can see Crom's birth organ touching and fertilising the land. Think of it - a Sea water Dragon flying in the Sky blessing the Land. This is what our Ancestors saw - the Dragon from the Realm of Sea, flying in the Realm of Sky while blessing the Realm of Land!  At true mid-night 00:33 on the Spring day of equal half's we do not get 12 hours of Sun, we get 11 hours: 58 minutes: 52 seconds of Sun, the previous day we got 11:54:37 and the day after we will get 12:03:07. At this time of the year we get four minutes and 14 seconds difference between day lengths, ie the days get longer by 4 minutes and 14 seconds. Equinox is two Latin words that mean "equal nights" and not "equal day to nights". Lux is day so if the true Latin was used maybe it should be a time of Equinoxlux... Either way Crom blesses the land at true midnight and the Sun warms the land and fertility results. Crom Abú  The Festival of Lughnasa by Máire MacNeill (7 Dec 1904 – 15 May 1987) was a very unique woman. Trained in folklore methods at Uppsala University, Sweden she then returned home and started research on the 195 sites associated with the Lughnasadh festival in Ireland. In this study she found Crom and Patrick and Lugh and the way the people of the land continued to honour Crom by continuing the ancient festival tradition at the ancient gathering places.  Many people who have definite ideas about what went on at Lughnasa will realise that they are suffering with romantic delusions from their speculations if they read and study this book. Folklore facts of actual gathering places, associated activities and the core theme of Patrick’s effort to replace Lugh who in turn tried to replace Crom allows readers to see through the smoke and mirrors, the misdirection and the false histories. Crom is the god of fertility and the harvest from the oldest known times in Ireland.  Imagine this - a book about Lughnasa that tells the story of Lugh trying to replace Crom, the same book that tells the story of Patrick trying to replace Lugh and Crom! But Crom is still here and as a stargod he dominates the spring equinox night sky as a flying water Dragon that blesses the very Land we live on. The first step is to know that their Matrix trap really exists. It is inside your head and they got each of us to pay tax to build it. They also got us to build their Wall around their Matrix. Their Wall is the edge of their holographic illusion. For many it is a border, for some it is protection from a dark dangerous wet place far, far away. Beyond their Wall it is full of many dangerous mysteries, with primitive out of touch people and cold wilderness. Their Matrix has you tied to their Grid of WiFi, scan payments and nearly always empty fridges, the 9 to 5 slave life with 24/7 shops. Living inside their Wall is hectic and complex but robots are easily programmed. Off-Grid or outside their Wall: life is simple and relaxed by comparison, even time passes differently. Eye contact and friendly greetings with people of the land is common and easy. There is an extended community of people who have escaped the Matrix and gone Off-Grid. Some are Olders while others are Elders, some are scammers and some are a treasure trove of homesteading, herbal healing and the pathways to higher awareness with deep powerful happiness. If you wish to escape their matrix and are seeking life in the Green Place then there are things and notions that you must let go of because they cannot serve you. Know that when you let go of those useless things that really useful things and notions can appear.   Every single culture had a name for the Dragon. Yet we are expected to believe that dragons are made up. That they were mythological. The term dinosaur wasn't invented until 1841 so until that time the most common term was the word dragon. If God created every animal during creation week, that would have included dinosaurs, if every culture talked about living breathing animals as if they were real, and you had cultures living thousands of miles apart on opposite sides of the world, more than likely we are talking about living creatures. SOME WORLDWIDE NAMES FOR THE FLYING WATER DRAGON Japan Ryu, Philippines Bakunawa, Siberia Yilbega, French dragon, dragun, dargon, Turkey Ejderha, Greece Drakon, Portugal Coca, Romaina Balamr, Sllavic Zmeg, Drak and Smok, Hungary Sarkany, England Wyvern, Dragon, Sardinia Scultone, Wales Y ddraig goch, Korea Yong, Imoggi, Vietnam Rong, Long, Khmer Neak, India Nāga, Persia Azhdaha, Germany Lindworm, Tartar Zilant, Ireland Crom, Hebrew region Levithan, Aztec region Quetzalcoatl, Maya region Kukulkan, Greek Hydra, Chinese region Ling / Lung / Loong.  The above image is of Crom as seen over Ireland at true midnight on the spring day = night equinox. Crom is the dragon that ‘St Patrick’ tried unsuccessfully to kill. Note - in the Columba or Colmcille era (born 7 Dec 521 – 9 June 597 AD) over 60 years after Patrick (born 387, died - 17 March, 461) Crom was still active and Colmcille and the fight went on... The true equinox in Ireland for spring is always on the 17th or 18th of March (allow for leap year) when Crom prevails in the Realm of Sky. Patrick is an attempt to misguide the innocent but Crom still rules the sky... In the rebuilding of our starlore for these modern times we see ‘Crom’ as the Irish version of the widely recognised ‘flying sea serpent’ that is found in mythology. Crom is not one of the zodiac constellations and does not follow the path of the Sun and planets but instead it is underneath Libra, Virgo, Leo and Cancer. Crom is the longest of all star groups whose name means ‘curved’. The deity of Earrach / Spring is ‘Crom’ a fertility god that was inherited by and predates the Tuatha Dé Danann. Columba prevents Crom eating a man and Columba makes Crom do a backflip...
EARRACH 00:33 Monday 17th March 2025 11h58m52s Calculations for True Mid-Night Earrach at Temple Crom, 53.73801 - 8.57184. The ‘Event’ is at 00:33 looking due South. The Prominent Stars - Corona Borealis aka northern crown. Arcturus: Greek means "Guardian of the Bear’, Regulus: Babylonian means ‘star of the Lion's breast’, Procyon: Greek means ‘before the dog’ and Alphard: Arabic means ‘the solitary one in the serpent’, Beta and Xi Hydrae - Birth Organ. The alignment of Beta and Xi Hydrae as the birth organ touching the horizon while due south at true midnight gives us the timing for Earrach. Beta and Xi Hydrae can be seen as the area of the ‘birth organ’ of the flying water serpent blessing the land when viewed from Ireland. In Ireland this flying sea serpent is called Crom, but it is also known in Hebrew as the Levithan, the Aztecs ‘Quetzalcoatl’, the Mayas ‘Kukulkan’ and in Greek as the many headed Hydra. In the Chinese tradition Crom is ‘Ling / Lung’ their flying sea serpent who is always chasing the Pearl (Procyon). Crom’s blessing causes growth from spring until autumn.  |
