    Anthony!
    Brilliant presention!
    The even, clear-minded equinemity through which you filter a logical yet "heartfelt" analysis of the esoteric elements of mythology combined with astronomy and archeology is nothing short of genius.
    Blessing! on you and all they who find joy within your circle.

    I wouldn’t say she was drowned by the water, but that she transformed into the river. 🐝🤗❤️

    looking forward to reading those new monographs anthony. those pictures are amazing. i am glad that this talk is now available on youtube, i have seen far too much of zoom over the lockdown and although it has its importance i think that sometimes it just helps to hold people at a distance from each other. i have the excellent boinn and fionn monographs and can highly recommend both. white mare, white cow i wonder how much of these stories are designed to encode astronomical knowledge? dismemberment i think has some connection with shamanic traditions, though whether boinn's story fits in exactly with this i do not know

    On the triple spiral ..
    The path into the spirals, as if walking into a maze, is Firstly clockwise, you reach 1st centre and Secondly, to continue on, you continue anti-clockwise. Try this and further on in, in your mind. Don't get so caught up on directions, it may be just a perspective. For instance .. the sun passes over head, correct ? Okay, trace the suns track with your finger. Your finger, from your perspective is travelling anti-clockwise, is it not, so the sun can be claimed to be travelling anti-clockwise or anti-sunwise. Figure that conundrum.. its a proper puzzle.

    Newgrange & the other so called 'passage tombs' were actually designed & built as very robust, ancient, underground shelters (bunkers) with a number of astronomical survival tools built into their constructions i.e winter & summer solstice markers. It was not designed to be a tomb. Presumably they were built for the Druid elite, the telepaths, the Tuatha Dé Danann, ancestors of the god An originating from Lebanon, Turkey & other parts of the middle-east, the god An was the premier deity who restarted civilization following the great catastrophe that nearly wiped-out human kind that is now understood as The Great Younger Dryas period caused by meteor bombardment & sent the world into an ice age. Newgrange has been built & improved upon over thousands of years since it was first started as everyone knew it was an extremely important building project for survival & preservation of ancient knowledge. Stonehenge built much later was never completed for whatever reason however was originally designed to have a large mound over it just like Newgrange has to serve the same purpose & this would have allowed for a large amount of space within it to shelter people, livestock, food etc in the event there was another catastrophe like the after effects of a celestial impact that started the ice age.
