Nua-#CelticSoulJourney in #Ireland: `In Co. #Tipperary, near the borders of Co. #Limerick in #Ireland’s southwest province of #Munster, the mountain goddess #Ébhlinne was honored in the range called the Twelve Mountains of Ébhlinne (also called Slieve Felim Mountains, the Keeper Hills, and the Silvermine Mountains). The highest peak in the range is Mauher Slieve (Máthair-Shliabh), the mother-mountain, where #Midsummer celebrations in Éblinne’s honor continued until recent times. As is common with ancient goddesses adapted into a new culture, Ébhlinne was euhemerized into a queen of the region.`Â
