Samhain (Halloween) Event

category international | environment | event notice author Wednesday September 26, 2007 20:29author by Carmel - Campaign To Save Taraauthor email carmeldiviney at eircom dot netauthor phone 0876100771 Report this post to the editors

Lighting the Fires, Great Banquet

This year we will be staging a large scale Samhain Fire event followed by a Great Banquet/Party to revitalise the Ancient Customs of our land.

In Ancient Times Tara was well associated with the lighting of Fires at this time and on it's surrounding hills. When the fires were lit, from hill to hill the message spread throughout the land , with fires being lit on every high place in responce. You may research this at your leisure but for the purpose of this email I am making a brief summary, which I hope will ignite your interest and passion.

This custom has continued on a small scale over the years by those who wish to keep our Ancient ways alive but THIS year we hope to make this event National and International to make our message clear, that we CARE about TARA and our Heritage and wish to protect it from the destruction heaved upon it by a short sighted , corrupt Governmenment .

We wish to highlight the alternatives , the Meath Master Plan and re route the road away from such a delicate Archaeological Landscape.

Interested parties have committed to joining with us in Solidarity for Tara from Canada and the US so far. We have a few weeks to make this as widely known out there as possible and require YOUR help to do so. The idea of fires lit for Tara especially here in Ireland in each county and being photographed from space... let alone the World ...(Google Earth ) is awe inspiring.

We need You to make this happen.

On Oct 31st Fires will be lit at Tara, Uisneach, Tlachtga and all over Ireland in responce to our call for people to unite in Solidarity. Be pro active and join us on a hill near you!

On Saturday Nov 3rd a mighty get together will take place at the Great Banqueting Hall on the Hill of Tara. We are calling Poets, Musicians (acoustic ), Re enactors, Artists, Speakers to come together to make this a spectacular. We call on all those that CARE about what is happening to our land and to the Heritage that we pass on to future generations, to join us.

If you have an idea or would like to contribute please contact

Carmel 0876100771 Emma 0857147745

We would love to hear from you.

The Harp that once through Tara's Halls will sing again . LOUD AND CLEAR!

Thank you.
