Full Moon, 23rd May 2005, Monday, Tara. This is the last Full Moon “Ritual of Protection” by Druidschool before the Full Moon Summer Solstice Tara Pilgrimage 05 on 21/22 June. We will start our sacred fire by 8ish and finish by ten. Meet on the gravel patch beside the Rath of the Synods at 8pm. We will use our native Celtic Irish language during this ceremony with explanations in English. All are welcome to attend this free and open ritual ceremony on Tara. We ask that you bring some wood from your hedge or local forest for the sacred fire. Our intention is to express our freedom and our desire is to protect Tara and Save Tara Valley for the future generations. The valleys and hills beside the Spiritual Jewel of Tara are its Landscape Setting. This holistic understanding is what we wish to protect.
