21. Sacred Triskele - Why Wicca Is NOT Celtic Paganism ierne. Why Wicca is not celtic paganism Version 2.5, ©1999 by Epona Perry. The pagan roots of Celtic spirituality has existed longer than Christianity. http://www.sacredtriskele.net/why.html

*note from ierne* I've caught some flak for re-printing this article here. Not because of the author, but because I've apparently breached my integrity by posting someone's point of view. Read some books people - Celtic Wicca as it is today did not exist in the Bronze Age. For pity's sake, even Celtic Paganism outlined as such below wasn't considered "paganism" then. Everyone is allowed their own opinion, and if I happen to post something on my own website that I find interesting - too bad. Oh, and despite my being an editor - it was NOT my place to edit this. All spelling and grammatical errors are as they were in the copy I was emailed. ~ierne Why Wicca is not Celtic Paganism of knowledge contained in Celtic Mythology. These sources present their own problems when trying to accurately asses the cultural and spiritural practices of the ancient Celts, and those who follow the Celtic path must dedicate themselves to careful examination of what we do know and continual study. diversity still does not allow the two to be considered as one, for they are fundamentally different.

MacQuarrie By Leslie Ellen Jones. Enfield Lock: Hisarlik, 1999. 249 pp. 25 [pounds sterling] (hbk). ISBN 1-8743-1227-3 This book is a welcome study of the pagan elements of Celtic culture, especially as many recent books on Celtic studies fall into two rather limited categories. The first is made up of those books by academic Celticists which have largely focused on the Christian themes and content of Celtic literature; the second is made up of those books by non-scholars who seek to reconstruct a pagan Celtic religion by cobbling together dated translations and interpretations of the literary and archaeological evidence. An example of the first category is John Carey's punctiliously researched and carefully presented King of Mysteries: Early Irish Religious Writings (Four Courts Press, 1999). Examples of the second category are rife; they are the sorts of books that most often appear in Celtic Studies sections of large, general booksellers. They are written, in large part, by neo-pagans for neo-pagans and for the general public, which means a lot more people read them than the more scholarly works.

So you see, claiming to be Celtic can mean any number of traditions. Following is a listing of some -certainly not all- of the many traditions that are in some way Celtic. On this page I've listed some of the more prominent Celtic Traditions in the Pagan Community. Most of the listings are followed by web sites where you may go to learn more if you so desire. Obviously it would be impossible to list all the Traditions that are in some way Celtic, what I've done here is include the ones that seem to have the most impact on the most people. If I've overlooked any please let me know! Celtic Reconstructionalists Celtic Shamanism Celtic Traditionalism Celtic Witan Church ...

Like Wicca, and like the Celtic culture upon which it is based, modern Celtic paganism embodies a strong reverence for nature."

30. The Pagan's Path ~ Witchcraft & Shamanism - Celtic: Samhain 'Pagan NewYear' During the early days of celtic paganism, candles and food were left out for these traveling spirits, to help guide them along their journey. http://www.paganspath.com/magik/celtic/samhain.htm

Celtic: Samhain 'Pagan New Year' Samhain Celebrated on November 1st as the Celtic (pagan) New Year. Festival rituals begin at sunset on October 31st. Celebrated with jack o'lanterns, masks, bale fire and decorations of black and orange. Honoring the Crone Goddess, relatives who live in spirit and and the renewal of the Wheel of Life. Samhain History Samhain (commonly pronounced as sow-en) is also know as Hallowmas, Samanna, or Samhuinn. For the Celts, it marks the new year and the renewal of the Wheel of Life. It is the time when the old God dies and returns to Avalon (the land of the dead) and the Old Crone goddess falls into mourning for her consort. In the annals of Celtic mythology (The ), Samhain is a time when people had to pay homage to the Fomorians by giving them two-thirds of their corn, wine and even children. The Fomorians were hideous half human creatures with supernatural powers, who are seen as the "original" invaders of Ireland and it's first inhabitants, the people of Cesair. This was the first of 6 major invasions of the Celts. The first 5 of these were by Gods or supernatural beings like the Fomorians. Some Celtic mythological scholars see this invasion as the original inspiration for the Samhain festival. It became a time when the Cesair mourned for their children that were taken by the Fomorians. Samhain became the day when the veil between the living world and the Otherworld all but disappears and parents can communicate with their lost children. As time has passed, this opportunity for communication has grown to include all family members and even one's complete heritage.

39. The Celtic Language Revival? In my vision of celtic paganism we play a major role in the success or failure of these languages, we can give them a purpose and strength that the secular http://www.summerlands.com/crossroads/celticlanguage/revival.htm

Celtic Language Revival? Robert Kaucher, 1999 Celtic culture is the mother of our religion. When Christianity came to the Celtic lands and the original Celtic Pagan religion died out it was Celtic culture, through the medium of Celtic language, that kept alive the memories of the old ways for us. With out the modern Celtic cultures we will be lost. Our religious path is intimately linked with the future of these cultures. Let us take for example the history of the revival of the Hebrew language. Hebrew died, it lost its native speakers and was resigned to the same level as Latin: liturgical but dead. But there was sufficient love for it to resurrect it. However, when one speaks of the revival of Cornish frequently he or she will receive sarcastic and out-right mean spirited remarks. The reason for this is a simple one. It's called "prejudice". People who treat the Celtic language revivals as foolishly romantic and misguided attempts to bring back the Dodo believe one or more of the following: 1). The Celts never contributed to anything and never will. The English language is superior and is rightfully replacing these languages. I call this the Darwinian Misconception.
