#AppleDay: Because of the heat under their feet on the #Celtic #Otherworld island of the `burning earth`, #MaelDuin and his seafarers had to collect the apples by night. These saved them from hunger and thirst.

It's #Apple Day in the UK.
In #Irish #mythology, there is a mythical island called Emain Ablach.
"Ablach" means apple.
It is the domain of sea god Manannán.
He once gave the branch with soothing, golden apples to legendary High King Cormac in exchange for his family.

#AppleDay: When they were again weakened by hunger and thirst, #Mael Duin and his seafarers arrived at a large forested island of the #Celtic #Otherworld. Here were many fruit trees bearing countless golden apples. These were consumed by pig-like, burning animals.

Fine in Brehon Law, for cutting down an apple tree was 5 milk cows & double that if the tree belonged to a chieftain! The Apple tree was among the ‘7 nobles of the woods’ along with Ash, Oak, Hazel, Holly, Scots pine & Yew! A name of the Otherworld=Isle of Apple Trees! #AppleDay

#AppleDay🍎 in Cumbrian dialect, gowk is an apple core (also cuckoo and idiot)

the crab apple is our original apple tree. It's a magical tree, having the power of healing, and used by Druids to journey into The Otherworld
