11/10/2006 - The Night Sky

The Celts regarded the night sky with wonder. In particular, they venerated the stars, known as the Court of Don (Lord of the Dead). Each star was perceived as the soul of an ancestor. The Milky Way was seen as a real path, created by a magician, Gwydion, who traveled to it to seek his lost one.

Observe the night sky and open you heart to its immensities. However well you can identify stars or planets, the heavens never loose thier majesty. After a stressful day, enjoying a beautiful sunset or gazing at the new evening sky is an ideal way to gain fresh perspectives.
