Celtic Motifs π The mythology of Western culture and civilization owes much to the Celts, all the elves, gnomes, dragons and epic heroes - came to us from the folklore of this people, who inhabited modern Europe for centuries and are closely connected with other ethnic groups π€ Just like magical creatures, traditions and holidays came to our modern mythology and perception from the Celtic oral tradition π Of course, one of the most striking examples is Halloween or All Saints' Day or, as it was called in the original, Samhain πΎ This was a holiday marking the end of the agricultural season, the beginning of the dark period of the year, marking the onset of a harsh, cold stage that people had to survive π₯Ά On this day, the gates to the other world opened and all sorts of Fairies and Spirits left their Hills and came here from other dimensions β¨ Frequent guests at Samhain were also the Fomorians, which we talked about earlier in this post π(https://fansly.com/post/683405007680184321) It is unknown how exactly the tradition of dressing up arose, whether someone started putting on creepy costumes and masks for fun to scare people and beg them for a treat, or whether it had a ritual basis, some claim that parents dressed their children in monster costumes to hide them from the eyes of the Fairies who had a habit of replacing human children with their own π± Be that as it may, now we have a cheerful and carefree holiday that pleases children and adults all over the world π Although who knows, maybe even today ancient hills and mounds open doors to other worlds and the Fomorians come out into our world to carry out their mysterious will π P.S.: I have a book about Celtic Mythology in my hands, a very interesting read! π€ #cute #teen #babyface #nerd #skinny
