(Part 2)
Join me as we continue our newest book reading for Adult Brain...it's a short one made up of many very short ones...the poet WB Yeats recounts tales he was told in Ireland about faeries and ghosts, and it seems he believes them because he himself was a ceremonial magician and a leader in the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn! The tales may not be true, but they are a delightful read & a journey back in time to old Ireland.
Step into the legend-haunted world of ancient Ireland as we begin our reading of The Celtic Twilight: Myth, Fantasy and Folklore by W. B. Yeats.
Part memoir, part folklore collection, and part spiritual exploration, The Celtic Twilight captures Yeats's encounters with storytellers, mystics, country folk, and the lingering presence of Ireland's old traditions at the turn of the twentieth century. Within these pages, the boundary between the natural and supernatural grows thin, revealing a world inhabited by fairies, spirits, omens, dreams, and mysteries that refuse to yield to the certainties of modern rationalism.
Drawing from conversations, local legends, and firsthand experiences, Yeats preserves a fading folk tradition while inviting readers into a landscape where myth and reality coexist. His reflections offer a rare glimpse into the beliefs, customs, and imagination of a people for whom the unseen world was never far away.
Whether you're interested in Celtic mythology, folklore, mysticism, literature, or the rich cultural heritage of Ireland, join us as we begin this timeless journey into the twilight realm between imagination and reality.
