The Lough Crew cairns in Ireland is said to have been created when a giant hag dropped her cargo of large stones from her apron.
This lines up with Beira (Cailleach), the Winter goddess, in the creation of the British Isles.
Neither good nor evil, she just is.
Beira cares for animals during the dark winter months and is the patron of wolves.
According to legend, she either dropped or cast stones from her apron as she traversed the land and these grew into rock formations or mountains.
A large rock situated at Coulagh Bay, close to Eyeries in County Cork, is believed to represent the Cailleachโs face which turned to stone as she stared out to sea, waiting in vain for her husband, Manannan Mac Lir, to return to her.

You may have noticed the lack of posts and content in the past couple of weeks.
This is due to my future relocation to another state, another job and in preparation for the upcoming move.
I am looking forward to this not only for myself, but for my familyโs well-being.
Where I go next will be a transition from a blue state to a red state, as well as moving to a location with more room to breathe.
Away from a bumbling, multicultural hellscape, and closer to the primal wilderness.
This isnโt my last move, because if it was I would only hear the trees talking to each other, animals carrying about their day and the grass between my toes.
I will get there eventually, but itโs at least one step closer.
In the meantime, enjoy this great image of foxes sharing an enjoyable moment.

The Honored Dead
Witches, spirits and things that go bump in the night will soon be on their way, and the veil will thin to its breaking point.
What a joyful time to be reunited with our ancestors and the venerated dead,
remembering lost friends and family members and honoring them for the impact they made in our lives.
Our ancestors hold great wisdom; they lived and learned before us, and we can look to them for guidance in bringing honor to the family line.
What can we do to prepare for this most joyous time of year?
By taking the time to remember those who have come before us.
Ponder on how much they have contributed to your life and the reminders of their role in your life and community.
Visit their gravesite, talk out loud with them (they listen!), pull out the photo album and remember the times you had with them in this life.
Invite friends or family over that knew them so everyone can reminisce about the times shared.
These things make for a welcoming home when the veil finally does part.

Celebrate our ancestors who have paved the way for us to be present where we are today, and honor them by being a positive force in our communities.
A lot has happened over the past couple of years with regulating officials doing their best to drive us apart either by seclusion or hatred towards our kinsmen.
Letโs stick it to the man and show our ancestors that family is stronger than any force in any known world.
The witching hour is right around the corner, because Halloween will soon be upon us.
