It's a day to remember our ancestors who created this amazing passage for the Winter Sun to light up this incredible chamber. Happy Solstice to all from Ireland.
Bring''''s me back ta being an 8 yr old child,,46 yrs ago now, 0n a school tour from Baile na Carraige ,, climbed on the entrance stone and watched the light creep in ta the very back, thought it was a cool place at the time, but only realised in later life how lucky i was....
This is a very spiritual experience watching the chamber at Newgrange being lit up by the Winter Solstice. People come from all over the world to try and get a chance to experience this. Today has been a good day for this. Cold here near Newgrange but lovely and dry with winter sun.
Thank you for this wonderful video. I learned a lot from it. Uncle Brian, Professor M, J, O'Kelly used to visit us in Dublin, on his way back to Cork, I remember my mother smiling at his report that the Roof box was working.
🤲 thank you for shining the winter solstice to share with all the world -- what an amazing and wonderous world we share in this mysteriously magical universe 🌌 I'm humbled by its magnificence 🤲
This is how God comes to us gently as this beautiful light enters the darkness ,, this is beautiful,, thank you for setting this up,,, and I'm going through a sacred and beautiful change this is so fitting for us all , it brings hope,,,
As an American descendant of the ancient Celts and Seidr who tries to connect with my ancestry in that regard... thankyou for this footage. Have a Yore-inspired Yule!
@@Cryforthebadman Oh, not saying the Celts built Newgrange, but it, and another monolithic structures, obviously affected the Celts and obviously impacted the culture. How can you see a large mound enclosed with a carefully crafted ring that literally sees time pass differently (thanks to the precise timekeeping aspect of it) of an elusive and ancient people with highly precise craftsmanship in a way that was more in tune with nature (the lack of necessity of quarrying) in the same region as Ireland that the locals call 'nothing but trouble', and *not* think of the Fey? This is likely a remnant of the very people that inspired the Celts and the Seidr to invent the stories of Fey and álfar. Not saying it's "magic real" or "fairies exist" or anything like that, just that like all old myths, there's a nugget of truth, and Newgrange appears to be that nugget. I look at Newgrange, and I feel inspired like they probably were. Heck, I wouldn't be surprised even if they had pointed ears, considering I know multiple people with heritage from the Black Forest area (my mom included) that have very slightly pointed ears, which wouldn't be surprising from the same world region that brought us mutations like red hair. It's like a bright blinking neon sign saying, "Hey guess what? Those fictional stories did have some inspiration from reality, take your heritage a little more seriously."
Superb, Excellent commentary and camera work. World class ! Please excuse my ignorance, but could someone please tell me piano piece played at the end ? I love it. Thank you in advance x
The old explanation by the gatekeepers - always saying that it is ritual or religion. I think this is a dated explanation and we are not giving our ancestors reasoning enough credit. Ancient scientists - dual slit experiment vibes, studying of waves. The chamber also has acoustic properties so it shows they were on a path of discovery. Fast forward to today and see how important the understanding of all forms of electromagnetic waves is. Realising this made me understand what the phrase, ‘We are standing on the shoulders of giants’ means. Happy Solstice Everyone.
I like that I am not the only one who sees the connection here, especially with all that you mentioned from resonance chambers to double slit, to particles and waves, and the historians getting it so wrong... I firmly believe that it wasn't us who built it, at least not the us with the knowledge that we have now. We have lost something, there's a massive chunk that's missing and I think we're all the worst because of it.
While I don’t think it had anything to do with studying the nature of light, the entire complex is certainly strongly linked to astronomy, and the understanding of it at the time. One of the decorated stones at Knowth (one of the other large passage tombs in the complex) has been interpreted as a calendar and another passage tombs complex nearby has a depiction of what is thought to be a solar eclipse. It’s likely that much of the stone art at these sites represents additional information we simply don’t have the context to interpret.
@mynym4543 not just light but sound as well. herringbone and concentric circles, the two main symbol forms do resemble how sound waves displace air. Cross section z axis and side on. It’s an interesting observation I heard from an iconographer a number of years ago. Thought it was interesting. I might add, for them what is astronomy without light? As you mentioned they were studying and had a knowledge of astronomy. Who nowadays carries out that work? Scientists? So to say that they must have been merely carrying out inexact ritualistic practices is not apparent. It shows knowledge and discovery. Also you mention the other great tombs like Knowth. Interesting that they are similar but not exactly the same. Almost like experimentation, iteration and trial and error. All tenets of an early scientific method.
@GT_FM see I've not lost the knowledge people were nomadic and used stars to navigate the shortest day and longest day is one year one rotation of earth the reverse of this gives you a map of earth amongst the stars people have no logic now and they get deducted in institutions the story's of the old God's from wich we decend have hidden meanings too abrahamic religion and the industrial revolution brainwashed alot of people to loose there old ways but there not as far away as you might think like my great grandfather couldn't speak English and it only takes na few generations to wipe out history with compulsory "education " if something is free your the product my friend
@@grizzyb4149science and religion were a mixed bag. Take a look at many middle age scientific advances, most were made by clergy or monks. They were the scientists.
So different from Stonehenge. At Stonehenge everyone can see the progress of the sun. At Newgrange, the mound only allows observance by priests and interred Kings.
All the wooden housing on top of these town foundations are missing. The question is: Are the stones used to construct the tomb, parts from older monuments of the town 8,000 years ago? (The letterbox rightmost rectangular area, which is conformant, paints the center of creation at 13,050 years ago, that is 11,030 BC. Is this letterbox modern or ancient?)
@@Annie-qp5iu Thank you for clarifying this. I am amazed over how we can know this for sure. Will be interesting to read the scientific papers explaining it all. Will keep an eye out for it.
I found the endless commentary really took away from an otherwise magical sacred experience why not play ENYA rather than babbling on and on especially at the moment the sun appears.
Happy Solstice to all of Ireland of Ireland’s fantastic we have been there and to hope to return.We just love both Irelands thank you sharing the people are remarkable just love the craic so glad we could all join in and all of the World could see it.☘️☘️☘️☘️🍀🍀🍀🍀🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈💚💚💚💚💚💚🤍🤍🤍🤍🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💟💟💟💟💟☮️☮️☮️☮️☮️☮️☮️💟💟💟💟💟💟💟
It's that time again when Finn and his companions must venture to the stronghold of Morrigan to retrieve Dagda's cauldron since she made off with it at Halloween and the earth has been baron and people have been living on the stores. But Finn will save us and in a matter of a couple of days will be back with the Dagdas Cauldron. This will greatly please Dagda and right away he will make his favorite porage recipe and all who are served it will go away satisfied. As Dagda plays his harp the sun resumes its dance across the sky Morrigan's greed and envy have been defeated one more time. Let's give 3 cheers to Finn and his companions. In the 4 cornered castle on the island of the strong doors where shadows and darkness meet together and bright wine brims over every beaker. Who will tell me what primal words were spoken by the Cauldron warmed by the breaths of 9 vegans the Perl-rimed Cauldron of Lord Dagda that will boil no coward repast or one forsworn and there will be brought to these Morrigan’s bright sword of doom. The Silver Branch.

The Celts don’t build Newgrange. They didn’t build Stonehenge either. It was the Bell Beakers that built those monoliths across Western Europe.

love to see all the happy pagans dancing and revering.
Will this be replayed at any time?

The roof is made from stone and it has never leaked. There was no wooden roof. Check out the history of it.

Was hoping my dad's name would have been pulled out for today viewing as he turned 90 today 21/12/1934

Ads every two minutes on a state and tax funded channel. Really takes away from the experience of today’s solstice sunrise.
