After passing through immigration in Dublin at 9:30 AM, we begin our adventure.

First, we travel a short distance to the center of magnificent Dublin, where we discover the distinctive charm of the city. We embark on a brief walking tour visiting the many historical sites including world renowned spots including Christ Church Cathedral, National Museum of Ireland, and Trinity College, home of the "Book of Kells".

Enjoy Ireland’s hospitality when we arrive at our hotel. We are served a delightful meal in this quiet, peaceful atmosphere, retiring early to relax and refresh after the long journey.

Today we experience The Boyne Valley. We will visit three ancient temples. These sites are older than the Pyramids of Egypt. Their uniqueness will astound! Each temple was carefully built to be aligned to the sun. Some believe these are remnants of the Atlantean Civilization.

At Newgrange we view the enormous stones etched with ancient art that surround the temple. As we enter the temple, we immerse in its unique energy and benefit as the ancients did before us. On the Winter Solstice the sun rises in perfect alignment, casting a beam of light down the center of the temple in bewildering perfection.

Next, we travel to Knowth. The splendour and magnificence of this site, including one large temple surrounded by more than eighteen satellite structures believed to be tombs, is a true wonder. It has long been considered ‘a special place of astrological, spiritual, religious and ceremonial importance’ from the early times. Ancient kings certainly once ruled from this site.

Hill of Slane, steeped in Irish myth; holds significant historical and cultural importance dating back centuries. Awarded the honor by UNESCO to be one of the World Heritage Sites, all of these sites have layers of wonder to discover. During these days we will visit “off the tourist path” lesser known gems as well.

This morning we will visit and experience Loughcrew with its magnificent Cairns, also known as Slive Na Callaigh of the Hill of the Witch. The central and biggest Cairn is known as Cairn T. The largest kerbstones are near the entrance to the tomb. A large stone in the northern part of the kerb is known by three names, 'Chair of the Witch', 'The Chair of Queen Tailtiu' and 'Queen Maeve'. Here we have the rare opportunity to sit directly on the chair and receive our personal message from Queen Maeve. This site is aligned to the Spring and Autumn Equinoxes creating powerful energies during these times.

After lunch we travel to Fourknocks. This national monument and megalithic Temple with a passage leading into a wide, pear-shaped chamber with three smaller offset chambers, dates back 5,000 years. This neolithic site contains intricate abstract art. Because of the alignment with the winter solstice sunrise path and the constellation Cassiopeia these aspects may have influenced some of the old Temple’s carvings, symbols and meanings.

This morning, we visit Tara, one of the most venerated places in early Ireland. It is the Seat of the High King and home to the wise and humble Druids. Tara is one of the largest Celtic monuments in Europe. In ancient Celtic spirituality and mythology, Tara was revered as the dwelling place of the gods. Tara now is the heart of The Three-Fold Golden Flame of Illumination, significantly connecting us to the Great Pyramid in Giza and Lake Titicaca. Also, Tara shares with us its advanced etheric school and much more. Here we will have a special ceremony opening wider the inter-dimensional gateway taking us to a greater place of conscious awareness and integration as we climb the Stairway of Ascension, connecting us to the Great Pyramid in Giza and Lake Titicaca. Tara is the heart chakra of the EU.

We will have time to visit a Tara gift shop, featuring all things Celtic. That evening, we travel to Glendalough where we enjoy a beautiful dinner. Overnight near Glendalough for 3 nights. ( B.

The little people are sure to touch our hearts in Glendalough. Here, we will be enchanted by feelings of joy, love, and peace as we walk the well-traveled and the less traveled paths through this ancient monastery. It is a true ‘journey within’. This exceptional place, Glen of the Two Lakes, is the only surviving example of an entrance to an early Irish monastery and university. As we stroll through this ancient Celtic spiritual power site, we will be encouraged to immerse into the ‘calmness’ of the serene nature. Perhaps one connects with the peace of the heart and the perfect balance of the masculine and feminine within each of us in the lush green. This is a place of sacred balance, of the divine feminine and awareness. The two lakes; upper and lower for some allow exploration of our “upper chakras and lower chakras”.

During our stay in Glendalough we will devote time for a group ceremony, rituals, meditations, reflections, integration as well as talks and discussions about the energies emanating from this sacred place.

As we walk through this picturesque valley we will encounter Trinity Church, Saint Mary's Church, Reffert Church, the main complex, The Green Road, lakes, streams and Saint Kevin's Cell, St.Kevins Well and much more.

We will also experience a Celtic night of traditional song and dance, guaranteed to stir your soul.

Early this morning we say goodbye to Glendalough and travel to Kildare. We visit the Flame of Saint Brigid. Her flame burned for over a thousand years prior to The English Reformation. The flame was rekindled in 1993 by the Brigidine Sisters. Saint Brigid is believed to have been a Druidic Priestess who converted to Christianity. People who visit The Holy Well often tell stories of miraculous healings and divine inspiration. We will visit Saint Brigid’s Cathedral and the original Fire Temple. She is the Goddess Patron Saint of Ireland and her Feast Day is February 1st.

After lunch we depart for Killarney where we will overnight for 2 nights.

Early morning departure for Killarney National Park where we will visit the beautiful Torc Waterfall. We will also stop at Muckross House to view the house and the gardens. You may choose to rent a jaunting car and journey back in time as you explore the mystical grounds, waterfall, and magical forest. Some have reported seeing a leprechaun or two.

Later, we will wander through the centuries old abbey and experience the mystically powerful energies of the ancient Yew tree that continues to grow in the center of the abbey. Free time to explore. Overnight in our hotel in Killarney. ( B. D)

Today we explore The Dingle Peninsula, the mystical Gallarus Oratory with its delicately inscribed stone. It is one of the finest examples of an early Celtic Christian church. The small oratory was built of large cut stones neatly fitted together to resemble an upturned boat.

Later in the day, we experience Kilmalkedar Church and Cross, Ogham Stone, Alphabet Stone, Sundial and Saint Brendan's House. The early history of the site is associated with Saint Maolcethair who died in 636 AD. It is also the starting point of 'The Way of the Saints', which takes us to the top of Mount Brandon along the Old Pilgrim's Path. We visit ancient Beehive Huts and experience how ancient communities lived. Here we deepen our understanding of the ancient Celtic ways and traditions.

After Lunch we depart Dingle and travel to our hotel in the exquisite seaside town of Glengarriff where we take in the splendid local color for a longer bit. We enjoy fine dining, charming shops and listen to traditional and authentically lively Irish music.

Overnight in Glengarriff for 3 nights. ( B. D)

We will settle into the quaint town of Glengarriff we prepare to witness the extraordinary beauty of Garnish Island right off its coast. A subtropical paradise and a remarkable 37 acre island reachable only by our boat from the shore of Glengarriff. The gardens were created in 1911 and were the joint work of John Bryce, then owner of the island and Harold Peto, architect and garden designer. The signature area of the garden is undoubtedly the Italian Casita, overlooking a formal pool in an area lushly surrounded with fuchsias, camellias, myrtles and scented rhododendrons and sumptuous unexpected species. Because of its ‘tropical’ weather, the flora is bewilderingly beautiful. Nestled within the glorious gardens is an amazing temple where we will hold ceremony.

From here we travel to Kenmare to explore its sacred stone circle associated with the Goddess of Sacred Dance. We take part in a ritual, getting in touch with the past which awakens us to the energy of ‘The Now’. We will experience sacred dance at these stones as our ancestors may have done thousands of years before us on May Day.

Next, we journey to the enchanting valley of Gougane Barra and Saint Finbarr's first settlement. This monastery was said to have been built surrounded by a lake on the picturesque island during the sixth century. We visit the nineteenth century oratory which stands near the original hermitage and is famous for its richly decorated interior. St. Finbarr’s Oratory is the final destination for one of The Five Pilgrim Paths of Ireland. We stroll the grounds of the old monastery, feeling its precious sacredness. Our stay in Glengarriff will be a time of weaving the energies of these sacred sites with our group as well as our personal energetic work.

Free afternoon to explore and shop. Overnight in our hotel in Glengarriff . ( B. D)

Today, we travel to the Drombeg Stone Circle known as the ‘Druid's Altar.’ This special site is aligned with the Winter Solstice. Starting at Winter Solstice (for 3 days), the sun disappears behind the hill on the horizon and then reappears in the lower valley. At the point of reappearance, the stone circle is dramatically illuminated. Remember; Don’t sit on a Druid altar unless you can handle the vibrations!

Overnight in our hotel in Cork. ( B. D)

In the afternoon, we travel to Blarney. Settle into the hotel or shop at the Blarney Woollen Mills. You may visit Blarney Castle and optionally kiss the Blarney Stone. Here we experience the beauty of Blarney and its ancient Druid heritage. In Rock Close you may ask the giant Dolmen if “it still rocks?”. Maneuver the Wishing Steps and have your dreams come true. Experience the sacredness at The Altar of the Druids or stand in their ancient circle. Will we see the Witch as she pokes the ashes of her kitchen fire? Are there fairies at the bottom of the garden? Or, perhaps will you just simply saunter and marvel at the unrivaled beauty that Mother Nature so generously sets before us? Here we devote time to experience ceremony and meditation.

In the afternoon we travel to our hotel at Dublin Airport for our Irish Farewell Dinner and overnight at the hotel in Dublin Airport. ( B. D)

We say our farewells and depart for home grateful for all that we encountered and experienced. Knowing that personally as well as in “community” we have created “a ripple Effect” of the Celtic love and light to shine far and wide.
