Highlight of Tlachtga fire festival - imagined - the Roth Ramach - the mysterious Flying Wheel - is it a solar symbol? #Tlachtga #Samhain

#MythologyMonday: It would be great if ancient #Celtic druids like #Tlachtga, #Biróg, #Bodhmall, #Fedelma, #Relbeo, #Amairgin, #Mogh Ruith, #Mide, #Delbáeth, #Coran, #Finegas, #Ferdia, #Cathbad, #Figol, #Drostan, #Broichan & Recrad could help us to build Nua-Celtic model villages (https://zotum.net/profile/ncm).

#Celtic #MythologyMonday: I would love to see #Conall Cernach, #CuChulainn, #Loegaire Buadach, #Fionn Mac Cumhaill with his #Fianna, #Boudicca, #Vercingetorix and druids like #Tlachtga, #Biróg, #Bodhmall, #Fedelma, #Amairgin, #Mogh Ruith, #Mide, #Delbáeth, #Coran, #Finegas, #Ferdia, #Cathbad and #Figol help #Voccio kick the Romans out of the regnum noricum.

#Celtic #FolkloreThursday: „Some think #Tlachtga may have been one of the Tuatha de Danann, others that she was a solar deity on account of her connection with Mogh Ruith. Simon Magus‘ three sons raped Tlachtga. She fled back to Ireland, where in time she gave birth to three sons on the Hill of Tlachtga. It was a long and difficult delivery during which all her energy ebbed. She was buried where she died, and the area took her name. Her sons were Doirb, Cuma and Muach, and one of the older versions of the story says they went on to rule the provinces of #Munster, #Leinster and #Connacht, and that while their names were remembered, no harm would ever come to #Eire.“

The #Irish #druid #MoghRuith is perhaps most famous for his flying machine, which he built with the help of his daughter #Tlachtga. In the roth rámach, meaning ‘the oared wheel’, or ‘rowing wheel’, night appeared as bright as day.

Queen Medb was warned by the Danann druidess and seer, #Fedelma, of the defeat of her army.“

#Tlachtga rises near the western edge of #Ireland’s central plain, called Brega in early texts, now covering most of Co. Meath. A large series of earthworks forming a circular hillfort were likely topped with wooden palisades to form a protective wall. Four large banks fan out from the circle, forming a shape similar to the Rath of the Synods on Tara. Like other significant mountains in the midlands, Tlachtga is not tall or striking, but its summit offers a vista of almost half of Ireland. The mythic hills of Tara, Slane, and Loughcrew are visible on a clear day. Nearby are several wells, one of which has the unusual name of #Druid`s Well. It may be the source of the water known from an ancient poem as one of the appropriate offerings to the king at Tara.

#LegendaryWednesday: The #Celtic earth and fire goddess #Tlachtga is still revered in our time at the #HillofWard in County Meath. The major ceremony held there is the lighting of the winter fires at #Samhain.

#Celtic #MythologyMonday: The powerful vehicle called Roth Ramach was a means of transport for the witch or goddess Tlachtga and her father, the magician Mog Ruith. On the “flying wheel” they traveled easily through the air, even as far away as Italy. The ruins of the magical machine are said to be visible in a stone near Dromline in Co. #Tipperary.
