From the Sacred Hill of Uisneach to every home and hearth in the land, may the Bealtaine Fire
be the spark of a new coming together - of all our tribes.

We invite our friends to join me by lighting a candle or a fire and connect with the Light at Uisneach.
To connect with all our Tour guests and previous guests to come together as ONE.
To connect with all our friends who haven’t been to Ireland yet but can feel her energy.
To connect with the energy of the land and deities.
To come together as Oneness to welcome in a new energy of awakening, peace, love and oneness.

You may like to join us on Tuesday May 5th (21:21pm Ireland Time) and
watch the Live steam video from the Hill of Uisneach,
and by lighting your own fire or candle from wherever you live around the world.

It is tradition to please wait until after the Uisneach Fire is lit,
before lighting your candle or fire.


We are looking forward to visiting the Hill of Uisneach again on our upcoming Ireland Sacred Tours with Maria next year in 2021. www.MariasTours.com

The Awen Celtic Symbol – The Three Rays Of Light. 
By Maria O'Farrell Carr


On our Irish tour we see this symbol engraved into a stone building across from our Bray hotel. In the Celtic language, the word “Awen” means essence or inspiration. For pronunciation, it can either be said as “ah-when”, “ou-when”, or “ah-oo-en”. The Awen symbol is fairly simple in design. Consisting of three rays leading up to a path to a high point of three dots all why surrounded by three circles.

There are multiple meanings for the Awen Celtic symbol. One interpretation is the two outside lines are symbolic of both man and women while the inside line represents balance. The most popular interpretation of the Awen symbol is three rays of light.

The number three is a very sacred number not just in Druidry but also in Celtic culture. The meaning of each ray of light has different meanings in culture. Another example minus the surrounding rings.

Some believe that they represent three divisions of the soul (mind, body and spirit)
Others believe it represents the three realms we inhabit (land, sea and sky)
Also underworld, middle world and upper world
Love, Wisdom and Truth
Nature, knowledge and truth
So as you can see, there are many meanings for the Awen.

Interestingly the three words for Druidry that illuminate darkness are nature, knowledge and truth.
The circle or sometimes three circles surrounding the symbol indicate the cyclical and timeless nature of these trinities as well as the three circles of creation.
