Wild Goose Studio
Ирландия
Добавлен 4 дек 2012
Fellow artists Brian Scott-McCarthy and Kathleen Smyth founded the Wild Goose Studio in 1970. Together with other leading Irish artists, they created a unique range of artefacts that take their inspiration from our rich cultural heritage and the contemporary world. Each piece starts with an inspiring thought, an image or an emotion and is given a physical form by our craftspeople.
Now in its second generation, the family business finds new ways to continue in the spirit of its founders, honouring the traditions while introducing fresh ideas.
Our inspiration comes from myriad different sources. Many of our pieces reflect our Celtic history with its stone carvings and evocative language, others are inspired by contemporary authors, philosophers, and the moments and milestones in life that shape our human experience.
These videos help us to tell the stories behind our family's business and behind everything that we make.
We hope you like them.

You are my Love ~ Romantic Irish Words
This Irish phrase was popularised in the early 20th century song Macushla and has come to mean darling, but the original is beat or pulse of my heart - a very romantic sentiment.
Words have been cherished in Ireland since the first lines were carved on Ogham stones and they are celebrated in the song, poetry and the art of everyday conversation.

An Irish Welcome ~ Céad Míle Fáilte
Просмотров 2,2 тыс.7 лет назад
The traditional Irish greeting, Céad Míle Fáilte, means 100,000 welcomes. The Irish respect the significance of the welcome as a threshold or rite of passage. Among Celts, there is a wide recognition of the importance of chance meetings and random events with a renowned openness to new experiences, opportunities and people. This is characterised by the expansive and generous nature of the phras...
Clann ~ Family in Irish
Просмотров 6637 лет назад
The Irish word clann speaks of the connections and support which families bring. The Clann was the basic root of society in Ireland and in the celtic world. It could consist of several dozen people. The Clann would gather for special occasion and continues to do so to this day. wildgoosestudio.com/products/clann-family?_pos=1&_sid=155f790db&_ss=r
How do you say 'I love you' in Irish
Просмотров 38 тыс.7 лет назад
Grá is love but it means more than love. There's no direct transaltion from any language to another and so it's not simple. There are thousands of ways of telling someone you love them in Irish and millions of beautiful terms of endearment that don't translate well in to English but are very strong and deep.

An Irish Home
Просмотров 3777 лет назад
The Irish always talk of home and speaking Irish and the cúpla focail (~few words) helps cement this sense of home when the Irish travel. A sense of belonging has such significance for all of us, letting us know where we come from. For the Irish people to leave home was a major thing and it's very much in our psyche; whether we know it or not. Irish Words & Sayings wildgoosestudio.com/collectio...

Excellent job. Beautiful images / video. You got it all right. Indeed they are a deep spiritual message for all about the //INTERCONNECTION// or //unity// of everything starting with dualities and triad. This is found in almost all spiritual traditions and religions. . The //triskele// or //Gankyl// ... is a symbol for an archetype, a universal psychological pattern, representing something deep in the way our mind / brain works, and representing one universal aspect of reality at all levels: //INTERCONNECTION//, interdependence, emptiness, unity. It is like a Yin Yang with three branches, or more. . Ex. Subject-relation-object, actor-action-result, cause-causality-effect, past-present-future, perceiver-perception-perceived, knower-cognition-known, body-speech-mind, high-middle-low, inferior-average-superior, desire-indifference-aversion, thesis-antithesis-synthesis, positive-neutral-negative, opposite1-oppositon-opposite2, item1-relation-item2, birth-life-death, origination-duration-cessation, beginning-middle-end, etc. . The arrangement of the //three interconnected spirals// means that the apparent opposites in any duality or triad or quad ... are always inseparable, interdependent, INTERCONNECTED, co-evolving, thus all empty of inherent existence (swirl), merely labeled / imputed by the mind, like illusions. The swirls represent their 'emptiness', the link between them represents their 'interdependence', the circle around them their 'union / oneness'. . These two / three / four... apparent opposites are not different / separate, not identical / united, not both together, not neither. Not multiple / dual, not one / non-dual, not both together, not neither. Not really existent, not completely non-existent, not both together, not neither. Not 'this', not 'non-this', not both together, not neither, and there is no fifth, for whatever 'this' is. . In short, it represents //Non-duality// in a set of two / three / four ... apparent opposites or concepts. It represents the limitations of our conceptual dualistic thinking. And point toward the inconceivable true nature and dynamic of reality as it is: the Oneness of all. . Quote: "If you look at it through the eyes of our neolithic ancestors, we can probably see that this was more of a generic symbol that represented the //INTERCONNECTION// of all things that were triadic in nature." -- The Brythonic Pantheon

The prime purpose of Newgrange was not as a burial chamber. As long as that is presented by main stream archaeology no progress will be made. These people knew their astronomy. Thats the starting point.
It’s a guide for a countdown of the return of the gods
The triple spiral... (along with the several other spirals) on the monolith at Newgrange looks like it started out as a double spiral and the third was added afterwards. The modern triple spiral cast in bronze is not of the same design as that on the monolith. Still, a cool, mysterious ancient symbol. Maybe they represent those that are buried there?

If you know geometry, youd know that the Isle of Man flag is a 3 sided swastika but it is also the geometry of a 3 sided spiral. Spirals and swastikas are one and the same, like the yin yang that is a 2 sided swastika in terms of drawing it geometrically. Once you see them drawn with a fractal and a pencil you cant ever not see the geometry at play when looking at spirals and yin yangs and so on.
The Neolithic builders are remembered in Ireland's mythological genealogies, according to which the O'Driscoll are the most senior family of the Corcu Loigde, the clan of the chiefs of the Dairine tribe of the Eireann nation, descending in the male line from the legendary Dagda for whom Newgrange was built. The traditional date is in good agreement with the archaeological dating. The Y-DNA of a body found in Newgrange is I2a, which is rare in Ireland today but over 60% of O'Driscolls have it. PS: Not only is Christmas celebrated close to the northern winter solstice, there are other coincidences: the grave passage is cross-shaped. St Patrick would surely have known of the triple spiral when he used the trefoil clover as an explanation for the Trinity.
My I2-L161 brothers! I'm M284.
I am also in the I2a line, L-161.1, going back to those who first entered Ireland as the glaciers retreated. Back in 1989 I was in a circle of visitors in the main chamber of Brugh na Boyne*, facing the triple spiral on the back wall. The nice young guide was rattling on in a soft voice with a dialogue that could have been written by a conservative Catholic priest. I closed my eyes and suddenly found myself in a circle of white robed, hooded figures. I opened them & it was the circle of visitors. Closed them circle of white robes. Opened them circle of visitors. Then I closed my eyes again: coming down from the roof box was a column of brilliant white light in the center of the white robed figures. I looked down and saw I had a white robe and a pair of cloth like shoes. We were all humming ; "hooommm, hoooomm.", in a low deep chorus. Then I was shaken out of my chanting reverie by the guide as she gently touched my arm and whispered: "Sir, it's time to go." I was the only one left in the chamber. I shook my head a bit, took some deep breaths, and followed her down the passage to the blazing sunlight outside. I told no one for many years. And, Wild Geese: I have your triple spiral on my kitchen wall, as well as one I painted on a leather pouch that I wear on my belt, which I had worn since the 70's, unaware it was the same one on the back wall of that main chamber at *Newgrange. It's the God's honest truth. There are no coincidences. And if you don't believe me, that is not my problem. Love and Light. Grá agus Solas. Slán.
The Chamber of Renewal may all that enter it be refreshed in spirit by Dagda's power of renewal. As Dagda plays his harp bird's song fills the air flowers bloom meadows turn green sunlight warms the air. Thank you Dagda May is perfect.
Have you looked at the idea that the spirals have a historical connection to a micronova of our sun.
Thank you. Learning Irish as it is my blood.
The goddess is not a fusion, no reality. The human Brigid was nothing but an ordinary woman, not any goddess. Sorry but time to face it. She was among the Christian saints, born in a place with faults and weakness like us all. Obviously, the truth: she's not a BIZARRE hybrid, not a very odd minestrone beyond solid reality, either she was a human or she was not... if you think anyone is wandering round now who was once a divinity, i think you need a good shake ! i also think that's extremely vain, against scientific truth, common sense and conventional theological revelation as tested by the greatest minds. If you choose to be a gnostic, then create your own stories, but don't steal this ordinary woman, who with God's merciful grace made her a saint like other saints who were subject to ordinary limits and mortality and weaknesses, etc. The saint may have been named after a goddess because that name was common and used for tons of young girls, but she was no more some actual divinity as is yours or my sister.... back to reality. She was not Christianised - simply: there was a real girl given that name, and she became a Christian saint, connection ? zero. Tons of kids in europe may have had a pagan name, then, became a Christian saint, nobody was dishonest enough later to try and claim that saint as a psuedo, hybrid. Rubbish.
Goodness
Terming the engraving on Newgrange's entrance stone a triple spiral seems rather wishful thinking since there are clearly 2 other spirals interwoven into the same pattern making a total of 5... with other similar, incomplete forms bordering them. Therefore, what basis is there to separate the one from the other when all are clearly part of the same work? Doing so seems like rather obvious confirmation bias to me - looking for a match and so neglecting to note that which isn't shared between the two examples.
it looks like SIX at 1:08!
Brighid is an ancient role model that makes me proud to be irish and a woman
Sun moon and stars astrology just a guess numerology 3s Jesus died age 33 un numerology the life path 33 /6 is a healer teacher mother
There are several triple spirals of the same period in Britain too, one in Northumberland. Single and double spirals can also be found.
Thank you ❤
I had an incredible experience witnessing this as a rare event in Greece! Around 4 in the afternoon, I looked about 30 degrees above the horizon and noticed something truly extraordinary. From the side of my eye. like it was a projector
Tell us more please.
@@LilyGazou There is not much I can add only that it was visible on the edge of my left perception, and I would look forward to my parents as we had afternoon Greek coffee. I would look again and there it was the three Spinning wheels. That's all, one of many things I have experienced, and there are too many to list
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Good work WGS! We were there last week and I filmed this and the St Patrick's High Cross next door. Wonderful relics from the distant past. Best wishes from the Belfast Castlereagh hills.
Thanks a million Tom!
It was likely used for an industrial process for original reason why it was built, though, could easily be converted into tombs at some point in time.
The entrance stone at the front of Newgrange, depicts the process that takes place inside the chambers? See Land of Chem RUclips channel
This is a commercial 👏 Well done 👏
I have a suspicion that perhaps the spirals predate the Celts who then reused those stones to build Kerns and circles... often adding axe blades over the earlier petroglyphs. Considering that they all but replaced the earlier mesolithic hunter-gatherers it would be apropos. Just a theory... We are learning more and more about the waves of migration into Western Europe. It's interesting how backwards we had it all. Native Americans left footprints 👣 in White Sands New Mexico over 23,000 years ago and Europeans as we know them today didn't even exist as a distinct population yet. Not for another 10,000 years! In Norway only the Sami remained but the whole area was probably sparsely populated by people closely or distantly related to these populations. Supposedly Europeans and Native Americans share DNA from an ancient "Ghost Population". Either the mix happened here or before they left the Eurasian Steppes/Anatolia region.?. I'm completely speculating 🤣 But it's fun.
The woman explaining about the stone being brought there from far away should also let the audience know that the white stones on the outside of Newgrange are part of the "restoration" of the site and were not original to the site.
Were they fallen down the slope?
Yes indeed and it was a very speculative rebuild which probably wouldn't have been allowed today.
Let's do it. 🍀. 🐇. 💓. 🎸. 💓💓💓💓💓💓💓🍌. 🍥🖕🍥🖕🍥🖕. 🔜. 🐣🐣. 🍌💓💓💓💓💓🍌
I believe this to do with what was important to the Irish at the time, which is with the connection between the Earth with the Sun and the Moon.
Happy Imbolc 2023 😊
Triple Goddess? Maiden, Mother, Crone
That's what comes to me too and I do actually have this piece nice synchronicity. 🌒🌕🌘
I’m pretty sure they have similar spiral designs in stone in Galicia NorthWest Spain
They do, my family Is from Galicia and it's still heavily Celtic
Its the spiral of the stars how they seem to move
How would a grandmother say I love you to a granddaughter?
the interlocking spirals are not abstract at all they are realist representations of the aurora
Spirals are prevalent in rock art because climate change in ancient past created multitudes of tornadoes, weather events were so severe and dangerous that people built underground cities. There is lots of evidence pointing to severe weather events in ancient past. Tornadoes turn clock wise in southern hemi and counter clockwise in Northern Hemi.
I've been to Newgrange and for me you have to look at the entrance stone as a whole and it struck me it is a representation of the milky-way and as such once you pass this point to are going to the place where the soul goes after death. A lot of ancient people believed this and the milky-way was the most striking sight at night in an unpolluted sky. The triple spiral is a part of the whole and not meant to be seen in isolation. Just my hunch.
wonderful thought
Three spiral circles are for climate. Right circle is winter solstice. Left circle is summer solstice. Center circle is spring equinox and fall equinox. Irish man do not know that the world is round and do not know about orbit. Irish man though the world is flat and though sun flew over the world. Irish man though the world stay still.

I found that the entrance stone has a straight line between the spirals. This means that the light wave comes from the sun. The triple spiral represents the wave movement. The straight line represents that the light coming from the sun, moves the spiral, which is a form of movement. In fact, they mean that light moves through space until it reaches the center. It also means that they control the light so that it moves towards the center. For my understand, this is the first idea to control the photons. Is like a technological way to control light to a path. Very like a Hadron Colisor. I know because in other monument called Loughcrew Equinox, has a comet passing near Earth. They did the first moving sun animation to show us that a box or an alien craft, or a huge planet passed near earth. People are misleading as they are saying about dead people, not they are doing science, showing us they control light to show us in future what they saw. One other ideia is that they are showing that something happen in the past, like a meteorite (Loughcrew Equinox), fell in the earth and caused a cataclism like tsunamis and the winter, that destroyied the Clovis peolple in North America. This places is related with Göbekli Tepe, and they are telling us that something pass near earth as is showing Loughcrew Equinox. In Göbekli Tepe they are showing the same idea. There are in the wall they show animals from pleistocene, that was extincted in a mass cataclism that extinct those animals, 10 to 6.000 Bc. They are showing us that a great cataclism. When I was in New Grange, a had a dream, after entered the tomb. I saw a man in white beard and white cloths, was a druid, he sayd to me: you will help people to see the truth. And I was in a big viking boat. Think this is not what you think, after a see the animation in Loughcrew Equinox, this opened my mind. Loughcrew Equinox is the key. That animation shows a comet or a planet that passed near by earth. Think they are alerting us.
That's a lot to digest.
Blessed be , once you visit this site its easier to understand. Irish are still thankfully very connected to the ancient pagan love of the earth
Hello Beautiful ☘️❤️😇
I believe these spirals represent the floodwaters that appeared at the end of the younger dryas? And that they are at the door?
