Happy Lughnasa weekend - on Tuesday 2nd of August just a few moments after the Sun has set the bright star we call Shalinnis in Lugh (Regulus in Leo) will grow huge as it briefly appears to our view - then it will go below the horizon. This is the timing for the high day/night of Lughnasa season of the Eightfold Year.
Do not be fooled into celebrating our ancient Tuatha De Dannan festivals on the relatively modern (16c) Gregorian catholic calendar.
Reclaim your heritage and celebrate Lughnasa by sharing your harvest - whatever that may be. If you can, without looking at the Sun, watch the horizon and see if Lugh winks at you. Blessings of the old gods to all. Image set as if viewed from Tara.
