Ireland’s ancient religious practices, often called “Celtic spirituality,” continue to attract people of all faiths and none. The Celtic culture’s mythical imagination, reverence for the natural world, communal identity, and politically powerful women are especially compelling for many today who seek new approaches to the urgent problems of environmental destruction and social division. Through art, mythology, poetry, and religious literature we’ll explore the qualities of Irish Celtic culture that became an enduring set of spiritual practices and beliefs.
