Full Moon at Bride's mound. Pt1

This video was shot in HQ definition (480p) YouTube has lost it, so it doesn't look as good as when first uploaded, being just 360p.

The friends of Bride's mound, meet at Beltane full Moon to celebrate, and to open a new "kissing gate" entrance. Seen here is Dr. Serena Roney-Dougal, offering Mead to mother Earth, (And talking of Bees) and Jaine Raine; both of these ladies do most of the talking here. It's good to hear
Dr. Roney-Dougal mentioning the Bees. They are having a very difficult time of late; Einstein is quoted as having said that if the bees die out, the human race will follow in four years.

Also shown in is this video, is my old friend Matthew Holbrook. He is a Druid, and reads his "Lady of Avalon" poem.


Bride's mound is the popular name for a small mound to the West of Glastonbury, it is a site of considerable historical and archaeological importance.
The site has been in use since prehistoric times, and this area would have been the Western gateway to the Isle of Avalon by water, or from the Polden hills nearby.
St Bridget visited Glastonbury in AD 488 and spent time at Beckery (here) where there was an oratory (chapel) dating from Saxon times, and that a later stone building was constructed, dedicated to Mary Magdalene (probably Mary the mother of Christ)
The area has always been known as "Little Ireland" from the visits by Irish monks.

It was here that legend says King Arthur had a vision of Mary the mother of Christ, and her son; this led to his conversion to Christianity.

**'Brigid' (with other spellings), is also the name of a Goddess

**This and part 2 were shot at dusk, consequently they may appear a tad grainy, but no special effects or enhancements have been used: the images appear here as you would have seen them in person. Also, due to the land elevation around, we didn't see the full-Moon at this time.

Blessed be. Thank you so, so much for posting this. It has been far too long since I've been to Ireland. I have been feeling like I must return soon, and I would especially like to join in spiritual celebrations like this giving of thanks on the Beltane full moon.
