The word Aran – What Does It Mean?

The word Aran has traditionally been explained as an old Gaelic word for 'kidney'. Writers over many centuries have argued that the main island of the Aran Islands, Inis Mór, is the shape of a kidney. That does not resonate with me, and it does not explain why two other islands located in Celtic regions are also called Aran. We have Arranmore in County Donegal, Ireland, and the Isle of Arran in Scotland. Watch this video and find out the far more likely meaning of the word Aran.

Teampall Bheanáin is the smallest church in Ireland. Perched on top of a hill, exposed to all weathers, it was the oratory of an anchorite. The anchorite's bedroom is just in front of it. Other interesting features: it is not oriented east-west, like all the other Celtic churches, and it does not have an altar or an east window. This video will explain all, and even reveal a secret!

SLWoA 4 St Enda's Monastery

In this video, I bring you through the site of St Enda's main monastery on Árainn. The area is called Killeany, or Cill Éinne in Gaelic, meaning the hermit cell of St Enda. A Viking attack in the 9th century destroyed the monastery, and later the buildings were dismantled to provide stones for the construction of Arkyne's Castle, a Cromwellian fort nearby. However, there are still plenty of mar...

St Enda is known as the patriarch of Irish monasticism. When he came to Aran, he brought over 100 monks with him, and spread them out in small communities of 12 or 13 throughout the island. His model of community became the template for all future monasteries in Ireland. His feast-day is March 21st.

Holy wells have been used as places of Christian ritual for centuries, but before Christianity, the Celts used them also for sacred purposes. For the Celts the holy well is an entrance into the womb of Mother Earth. It is therefore a symbol of the feminine. Today we can practice new rituals at the holy well to celebrate femininity or new birth.

Serendipity & Coincidence

Просмотров 1292 года назад

Sometimes, at intense moments in our lives, we can experience a coincidence that is almost too serendipitous to be attributed to chance. Something happens outside of ourselves, and outside of our control, which seems to speak directly to our situation. Rather than dismiss these experiences, I invite you to consider them as mystical and as indicating to you that there is much more to our lives, ...
