Ardú 12.6 faoin gcéad ar an gcáin atá bailithe go deireadh Lúnasa. There has been a 12.6% increase in the amount of tax collected by the State in the first 8 months of the year compared to the same period in 2023. Ardú 12.6 faoin gcéad atá tagtha ar an méid cánach a bhailigh an Stát sna chéad 8 mí den bhliain i gcomparáid leis an tréimhse chéanna i 2023. The latest information from the Department of Finance shows that the increase is based on an increase in income tax, corporation tax, VAT and stamp duty. Taispeánann an fhaisnéis is deireanaí ón Roinn Airgeadais gur ar bhreis cháin ioncaim, cáin chorparáideach, CBL agus dleacht stampa atá an t-ardú bunaithe. The total tax collected up to the end of August was €59.8bn, of which €16.3bn was corporate tax, an increase of 28.4% on the same period last year. €59.8bn an cháin iomlán a bailíodh go deireadh Lúnasa, agus is cáin chorparáideach €16.3bn de sin ardú 28.4 faoin gcéad ar an tréimhse chéanna anuraidh. The VAT collected up to the end of August is €14.5bn, a 7.5% increase on the same period last year. Is ionann €14.5bn agus an CBL a bailíodh go deireadh Lúnasa, ardú 7.5 faoin gcéad ar an tréimhse chéanna anuraidh. Excise revenue is €4.1bn, a 14% increase on 2023. €4.1bn é an t-ioncam ó mháil, ardú 14 faoin gcéad ar 2023. So far this year, the Exchequer has a surplus of €3.8bn, compared to debts of €0.3bn last year, a difference of €4.1bn. Go dtí seo, tá farasbarr €3.8bn ag an Státchiste go dtí seo i mbliana, i gcomparáid le fiacha €0.3bn anuraidh, difríocht de €4.1bn. But this is not likely to be the final figure, because during 2023 €4bn was transferred to the National Reserve Fund, and if this happens again this year, the surplus may be less than that. Ach ní hé seo seans an figiúr deiridh, mar i rith 2023 aistríodh €4bn chuig an Cúl-Chiste Náisiúnta, agus má dhéantar a leithéid arís i mbliana, is feidir go mbeidh an farasbarr níos lú ná sin. Today's figures also showed that the State spent €69.1bn to the end of August. Thaispeáin figiúirí an lae inniu freisin gur chaith an Stát €69.1bn go deireadh Lúnasa.

Join Charlie, a non-binary sci-fi fantasy writer, and their husband Brian as they delve into the importance of celebrating our works in life. Misconceptions about humility and the significance of commemorating achievements are discussed, alongside insights on spirituality, interconnectedness, and resisting negative forces. This thoughtful discussion revolves around themes of co-creation, gratitude, and finding joy in small victories, ultimately advocating for a balanced approach to life's endeavors.Support us on: https://ko-fi.com/cedorsettBecome a patron of the arts patreon.com/cedorsettFor Educational Resource: Wisdoms Cry https://wisdomscry.comFor all of the things we are doing at The Seraphic Grove go to Creation's Paths https://www.creationspaths.com/BlueSky https://bsky.app/profile/creationspaths.comThreads https://www.threads.net/@creationspathsInstagram https://www.instagram.com/creationspaths/Transcript:Charlie: [00:00:00] The apostle James reminds us that faith without works is dead. But works without celebration are a dull monotony that will bring us to our knees and cause us to stop doing whatever it is we were doing. So let's have a little chat about celebrating our works and what that actually means. Charlie: Hello everyone. My name is Charlie. I am a non-binary scifi fantasy writer, and I am joined by my wonderful husband Brian. And today we're going to be talking about celebrating our works. Because this is something we do not do. And it's I think rooted in a very understandable and common [00:01:00] misunderstanding of humility. Where we think humility is not talking, it's keeping your head down. We have confused the concept of humility. We have confused the concept of humility with obedience or subservience. That is not what this word means. That is something that the Imperial church and the patriarchal powers that be want humility to mean. That's not what it means. Humility means everything in its proper place. So something doesn't take up more space than it ought. Now that is also a fraught definition because we can add onto that all kinds of misogynistic homophobic and racist terms about how much space something ought to take up. What that really comes down to is not centering ourselves anywhere really, because we are not the main character of the [00:02:00] story. It's about taking up the space, deserved the space that is required for the thing to have. If you've done something and you want to celebrate it, celebrate. That is not an in humble act. If every time you have a conversation with somebody you were bragging about a thing. Then it is taking up an excess space. Brian: An easy exercise. Entertaining exercise to do. And everybody's daily life. Is when you're in a conversation with somebody or actually when there's a group of people. Having a conversation. And it's your time to. Not be involved with the conversation, just observe and watch. You will see. Someone inevitably. Start stepping over other people's moments to speak. Because humility is knowing, this is the moment where I'm supposed to occupy this space of the conversation. [00:03:00] And then knowing in other moments, I'm not supposed to occupy the conversation. And inevitably you'll have a conversation where say somebody is talking about something in their personal life. And it is on the focuses on them or on the subject of their conversation. And another person will step in and be like, and it's all about me. And me. And be, and completely forget. Like. That was not the topic at that point. It's very interesting. Way to see, oh, this is what is humble. And this is what is not humble. You know, How to occupy those spaces because it always fluctuates. It changes. Charlie: This is where I like to apply what I, in my own brain called the Muppets rule. Miss piggy is too boastful. And Kermit is too quiet. Brian: They're both not humble. Because Kermit at times needs to be more assertive [00:04:00] needs to fill the leadership role. That Kermit. Is cast in and at times, miss piggy. Needs to step back. And not be in the leadership role when she is not supposed to be in the leadership role. There are times when she is supposed to be . A facilitator or a leader. And. Times when she is supposed to be outspoken. Charlie: So learning to have this. Much more proper view. And embodiment of humility really is the heart of everything that we're talking about in all of our spiritual work. I was talking about this with a friend the other day who is just learning. Magic and just learning to walk the path. One of the things that I brought up is how people very often get up in their head and are like, oh, I am so special because I am interacting with the grand energies of the cosmos. I am interacting with the grand spirits of the cosmos that yeah, everyone does on a daily [00:05:00] basis. You're just more conscious of it and not special. That's called being a live. I think that's where. We get really lost and confused in a lot of this. The Imperial church especially has wanted to relegate mystical activity and any true connection with spirit. To something that only a chosen few have access to. That when we start having those experiences. We tend to puff ourselves up and go, I am one of the chosen, I am one of the blessing ones and that's no, you're like the rest of us. You're just allowing yourself to be conscious of the experience that most people ignore or allow to go unremarked upon. It's rabbi David Cooper points out in his wonderful book. God is a Verb. The point of all of this is to learn to be Goding. G O D I N G. Goding, [00:06:00] we are living God in every moment and in everything that we do and in so doing, we are interacting with angelic and demonic forces, angelic forces, being those that are bringing benefit and blessing and good into our lives. And demonic forces bringing in misfortune and illness and back bad things into our lives. Everyone is experiencing those every day. They may not be labeling them angelic and demonic but to many people when they start using those labels are suddenly like all I have the center of the great cosmic war for the universe. Because angels and demons are warring over me. And that is not the case. I think that when we start talking about inspiration, which is a big part of the work is learning to access that Imbas to access that Awen. Again, people feel special. Ah, the inspiration is upon me. Because again, the Imperial [00:07:00] church has locked this idea of the great men who wrote the Bible. Did so under the inspiration of God. The awen of God. The Shifa of God, the influx of power. Can you came upon them. And so again, only special people. No, no, it's not only special people. These are the people that have been remembered. Not everyone will be remembered but everyone has access to those energies to that inspiration to that influx of divine. Power that can come in and give us the strength that we need to accomplish great and amazing things. That is really what needs to be celebrated here. Look, I grew up in a Baptist church. I grew up in non-denominational churches and evangelical churches. And it's not uncommon. To hear people say, That you should just give God the glory for all the things that happened in your life. I'm not opposed to [00:08:00] that. But if you are doing that in such a way that you are. Not allowing yourself to have any apparent agency. This is a word we've used a lot here. This freewill, this agency. That as we're reminded by the apostles, the spirit of the prophet is subject to the will of the prophet. We are not blind puppets in any of this. So when we allow ourselves to remember that, And act from that place. We are participating. As Matthew Fox. And his book, original blessing reminds us. We are co-creators with God. We are cooperating with the divine to make this world what it is. That cooperation deserves celebration. Bye the way most people give glory to God. It is in a way that deprecates. Their own contribution. Brian: Once again, God wants your love. Not your sacrifice. Even if it's [00:09:00] sacrifice of your own. We'll or a sacrifice of your own. personhood, that's not humility. God wants you to occupy that space that they have given you. That they have put you here to occupy. And doing anything less than that is actually in a way sacrilegious. Yes. You're supposed to. That's your space. I enjoy it. and celebrate it. Charlie: And you need to take it as your own. We talk about Elijah in a lot of ways, I've often marveled at how he had a problem with this, right? He can stay in there on the mountain and called down the fire of God onto the literally has water poured upon it. Sacrifice on the hill, right? Demonstrating all this divine power and then slaughter. 500 people in the riot that ensues afterwards. Right? But. He then flees into the mountains and hides because he's unworthy. I think this shows the imposter syndrome that we get ourselves into and why [00:10:00] it is important to. Learn how to celebrate our works. We're in this season of Lunasa. So we're in the season of harvest the first fruits and we're taking time to. Either collect or recognize the labors that we have done so far this year and celebrating. Those harvests. Brian: It is also so important to celebrate one's works because, To get into the forces of evil or darkness or energies that work against us. Through bringing us down. There are the direct optimizational ones, the ones that use violence that try to take. Ours are piece from us. But there is also the more insidious where it tricks us. It works within our free will, but it tricks us to give it up. In understanding humility in particular as moments to celebrate our words. It makes it much harder to get tricked into giving up our own peace. If you're giving up [00:11:00] our personhood. In giving up that space. That we are supposed to occupy. It helps to protect us from giving ground. To evil, I guess you could say to be very old-school biblical about it. Charlie: Also many of the works that we are called to. Are very long-term projects that may never be finished in our lifetime. When we're talking about Tikkun Olam the restoration of the world, right? The. Mystical work that we're doing. The. Just building a good family . For those who have children, you may not know. The end result of what, of, what you've done with your children. Because their lives will. God willing. Extend beyond yours, right? So many of the works that we do have such a long-term. outcome, right? Brian: This is where I like to remember. The phrase that you taught me. I strive daily to make perfect to that, which God has already made. Perfect. [00:12:00] That's Paul Paul. Strive daily. Every day, it's a struggle. Every day. It's not done. It's never done. It's never completed. Every day, I work with humility. For sure. These I don't pay. Backslide every day I should be celebrating creep, you know? The worms and celebrating. And recognizing them. Charlie: And when we don't take time for those little celebrations. Because the great work we'll not be finished in our lifetime. the grand vision of a utopian world where all perfection rains, and there is no sorrow or grief, and we have cured all disease. Whether or not, you think we will ever get there or not. It is a worthy goal to strive for. Right. We want the world to be a better place and succeeding only better in every generation. We won't get there. It's not, there's not going to be. It's so far off in the future. The idea that we will [00:13:00] have anything remotely like a panacea and we probably won't have a actual panacea. We will have a whole bunch of medicines. That help cure and treat various ailments. But we need to celebrate every little thing. You get a little sketch done celebrate it. You get a little story done, a little poem done. Celebrate it. You finished cooking dinner, celebrate it. In celebrating those little victories. We are reminded that good things are happening. This is the greatest tool of the enemy. When Paul says we wrestle not against flesh and blood. But against powers and principalities in high places. This is one of the things that he's talking about. That. It's not talking about just, oh, there are demons. It's these pervasive attitudes of, oh, it's not, you're not really doing enough. You will never be able to do enough. This [00:14:00] is an incremental change. It's not going to actually amount to anything. There's so much negativity and cynicism. That is perpetrated in the world because it empowers those who are already entrenched in power to get us to believe that what little we can do. Isn't actually worth doing, because it isn't achieving the grand sweeping goals that we want to achieve. Look, I am very open about my opinions, about a lot of things that we should have as far as healthcare and various political. Stances right. But I am opposed to the revolution. The reason for that is not because I don't think that it would be glorious if we could snap our fingers and suddenly make everything right with the world. I know history. History teaches us that. Revolutions tend to fail. Revolutions. I become solipsistic. They turn into themselves. They start seeking [00:15:00] the enemies of the revolution. And become their own downfall. They sowed the seeds of their own downfall. I think this is very well typified by the French revolution. The French revolution had lofty and beautiful plans. Beautiful goals. Beautiful aspirations. That led to the terror and led to a whole bunch of people having their heads chopped off, which led to a revolution that led to another revolution that led to Napoleon. So all of this democratic fervor gave us the first emperor of France. Oh, that backfired. And we can see this also in the American revolution. The American revolution led to the civil war. All of the compromises, all of the grand statements, all of the very abrupt change that was tried to have in the creation of the United States. It makes a direct line. to. The civil war, the civil war was inevitable. Through the three-fifths compromise [00:16:00] through. Just, we can go through the whole list. Abrupt revolution, sows, the seeds of its own destruction. Because if people aren't ready for the revolution, this is the problem that Christianity had in the first three centuries. Here comes Jesus. Broke into history. With this radical idea. And it really shouldn't be a radical idea, but it is. Said in Hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy 2000 years after somebody was nailed to a tree for saying, wouldn't it be awfully nice. If we were kind to each other. Which is, Hey. Great summation. Of what happened, love God with all your heart, mind, and spirit and love your neighbor as yourself. Ooh, crucify him. But that radical idea. And it is a radical idea. Because he. Talked about being nice to people outside your tribe. Outside your kin group, outside your language group. , he very much just talking about taking care of people outside your social economic class. . You should treat the [00:17:00] poor, well, the people that who are in prison. The people who are hungry, who are thirsty. He tells the story about the good Samaritan. He's this, these are radical thoughts. And radical ideas. That. I don't think strike us as radical as they were at the time. And this is why they had to be co-opted by empire. They had to be co-opted by empire. They're too radical to survive. What we see throughout history. How did this movement then continue. The Roman empire was great at crushing things that didn't like. We don't talk about Apollonius or Mithraism. Or, or, or, or right. But Christianity survived. Partially because it was successfully co-opted. But also because there were too many people. Who felt this change who felt this kinship? Who felt this connection? We're celebrating it even in quiet. In the secret places in [00:18:00] overt places. They celebrated the work. And it was able to survive. Down to us today. That even with all of the problems caused by the very overtly Imperial church that we see in Rome. To the evangelical. Christian nationalism that is threatening to take over the country. There are still those who hear the still small voice. The simple message. Love one another. This is how they will know you, that you love one another. As I have loved you. This is the message we get from Christ. And it is so simple that it sounds trite. But it is the hardest. Thing. To do. And if we're not celebrating all of the little victories. Yes, we want peace on earth. But ending squabble in your family is part of bringing peace on earth. Yes, we want to make sure everyone is fed. But, you know what? Sometimes finding enough money to make sure that your kids have lunches. These little moments [00:19:00] of celebration. And they could be tiny. when I was a kid. I didn't understand why we said grace before meals. it's a weird thing to do. I'm hungry. I've had to smell this food being prepared all this time. And now we're going to stop. Most of the time in our family, we said silent grace. We'd no one actually prayed over the food. We all just stopped. About our heads for a minute. And then someone would say, amen. And that's when we knew we could eat it wasn't something that we actively. Took part in, right. You know what I'm saying? It wasn't a group effort. For the most part, it was only on holidays and special occasions that somebody would say grace for everyone. And it's weird. Why are we doing this? I've smelled this food being prepared. I'm hungry. It's right here. Why can't I eat? And it's because taking that little moment of celebration. Either to say, thank you for the person who cooked the meal, which is. Frighteningly lacking in most people saying grace. Somebody made that food [00:20:00] for you. Your mom, your dad. Your spouse, somebody made it. A friend of yours, whose house here at a chef at a restaurant that you're sitting there, somebody made that food. You may have made that food. But somebody made that food and you should be. Thankful and grateful and celebrate. That process and of itself, but also taking that moment. Because I grew up. I'm in a family of farmers with. A lot of farmers around us. To be thankful to the people who grew the food. To the animals. They gave their lives for that food. To the plants. They grew those vegetables in that those fruits. Taking that time to be grateful. To be thankful to celebrate. All of the work, all of the work that you didn't see, you weren't there when that seed was planted and that. Plant was tended in heart and harvested. All the people that it took to get it from that farm. To the store, to the table. To celebrate that. Gives meaning to [00:21:00] what you're having. And you realize that you are part of a community. Every time you sit down and have a meal. You were part of a community, even if you. And this is what drives me. Wild about people who are like, oh, I did this all myself. No you didn't. If you grew that carrot. Planted the seed. From a seed that you had harvested before. With season before. I grew that carrot. Harvested that carrot. Cooked that carrot. You still didn't do it alone. Rain. All of the soil, bacteria, all of the worms, all of the insects that help to fertilize and make things possible. There's a whole myriad. Of creatures that were responsible for bringing that carrot onto your plate. Beyond you, we never do anything. You can't even digest your food alone. The gut bacteria that live within you, the flora and fauna inside of you. Make available to you, the [00:22:00] nutrients in there, you can't even digest your food alone. Taking that moment of celebration. For all of that work. That you don't see, you don't see all of the little bugs that are helping you to get the most out of that food inside you, that we're working in the soil. to make sure that plant had the nutrients that it needed. You weren't seeing any of that. Taking that moment. Reminds you that even if you are alone, Even if you're as isolated as you could possibly be. And you grew that plant from seed and harvested and did all that work. You didn't do it alone. We are never alone. That's what celebration. Can bring us. It's not just this gratitude or this moment of peace on, in the great work where we realized. I accomplished something. It's infant testimony, small little piece. Which is great and wonderful, and we need to be celebrating this thing. But also reminding ourselves. The vast hoard of [00:23:00] creatures. Big and small. Necessary. For even the smallest thing. To get on your table. We're not alone. We are never alone. And those are the lessons we've learned from celebration. That's what we get. From taking those times that time. And those moments to celebrate. And that's true for everything. You didn't make that painting by yourself. Somebody probably made those paints. And if you made your own paints, somebody probably harvested the materials that were made for those paints. And even if you harvested those materials for yourself, they came from plants and minerals and stuff that had an entire cosmos. Conspiring for those pigments to come into being. That's what it means to give God the glory. When you give God the glory for what happens. God is living in all things. God is the one in whom we live moving. RB and not just us, everything, the cats, the dogs. The ants, the butterflies. The little bacteria. And [00:24:00] the great storms. They all have their being in the OneLife. That interconnectedness, that. Profoundly. Deep interconnectedness. Needs celebration. Because as I've said, It's way too many times people are probably tired of hearing me say it. We are forgetful. We are easily distracted. The little pains that we have in our lives. Can I quickly make us forget of all the friends that we've ever had. All of the good things that have ever happened to us. That's where gratitude and celebration come in. They're taking those moments to remember. To celebrate and to be glad in it. I think that's a pretty good thing. I think that's something we should be doing more of. In every aspect of our lives. Every time we finish an episode of the show. We have a little bit of celebration. Y cause we got another one recorded. Every time. Every step along the way from doing the thumbnails, that show up. To getting it [00:25:00] posted a little bit of celebration. ' cause it's work. It's labor. And it can become monotony. It can become drudgery. Every time I write a word, a sentence. A story. A little bit of celebration. In fact, this is one of the reasons why in my own personal life, I've started writing short stories again. Because every idea I've been working on are these grand epic tomes that take forever to do. Charlie: And I know I need these moments of celebration where I can celebrate the work. So I'm going to write some short stories. Harvest a little bit of that joy. That little bit of those little moments of, I finished a story. Yay. And really have that joy in my life. Because while I agree with tick, not Han. That basic joy is there. Because no matter how depressed I've been in my life and I have. Suffered from depression off and on my entire life. You breathe. You enter that mindful state, basic joy is sitting there waiting. It [00:26:00] is. We're easily distracted from it. And so celebrating is how to remind ourselves. Hey. Pay attention. There are good things. Don't ignore the good things. I hope this has meant something for you. I hope that this has helped you out. Celebrate something. In fact, if you go to https://www.creationspaths.com/. Find this episode. And in the comments there.

New moon after. Lunasa. Today, we are going to be talking about what we can glean from this. Day. Really getting into a topic that. I don't hear a lot of people talking about, at least not in the way that we're going to be. Hello, my name is Charlie and I am a non-binary scifi fantasy writer. I am here joined today by my wonderful husband, Brian. Hello we are going to be talking about harvesting peace today on this first new moon after Lunasa. This is something that I've been wanting to talk about more in our practice. We have associated the four paths of Creation Spirituality with four of the phases of the moon. Today on the new moon... Shameless insert for more information on that. Go-to https://wisdomscry.com. I totally broke your thought. Yes, he did. So, uh, today on the new moon, we are meditating on the via negativa. The via negativa is the path of sorrow of pain of letting go and letting be and those are usually as far as we go, when we talk about the via negativa or the negative way. I have always kind of, bristled against this in a way because I think that there is a weird association that we get in our minds with the word negative that we have to look at it in a negative way. I think that one of the things that we should be working on, , D'var. Dibbur. Is the word of God in the via positive. I am of the opinion that there is actually a word of God in each of the four paths. This one is up for debate in my head, but the word of God in the via. Negativa is either Shalom or Selah. Shalom means peace and Selah means pause and listen to what you just heard. I think that both of these are appropriate for the day. But I want , especially with everything going on right now in the world to focus on the idea of peace. That today on this new moon, we need to sit, and work on, the harvest of peace and harvesting peace. Peace is something that I think we all want. I think it's something we all think about and talk about, especially with so much war and violence and everything going on in the world. We don't actually think about what piece is. Peace has two major components. One is the absence of violence. the second is the absence of fear. I think both of these are necessary for true, complete and lasting peace now. Notice those two caveats that I put on there complete and lasting. You can experience peace without the complete lack of fear or the complete lack of violence but it is not going to be a full peace without those two things added to it. I also feel like I need to explain really quickly when I say violence I'm talking much broader than most people are when they're, when they think about violence. Violence in the common mind is an act of harm, someone lashing out. We've talked about a violent storm or a violent act taken by somebody. Personally in my own way of understanding a storm, a storm cannot be violent. Because violence to me is the forceful removal of a another's agency. When you're taking away the ability of another to act that is violence. This is also tied into a deeper topic. Something that we'll have to touch on later on of free will because that is the greatest gift from God. Is everyone's individual free will and the violence is the removal or the violation. Of that gift from that God gave to another and that is why it is so bad, thing to have happened. More to perpetrate another. Which is why I would say that a storm came in from my point of view can not be violent. , Storm can be brutal, , but a storm can't be violent because there isn't that volitional act of deprivation happening there. And I'm sorry to use big words there, but I don't know how else to get the idea across. The storm is not intending to take away your free will. The storm is just dissipating, excess energy in the environment. It doesn't have any other goal other than to dissipate that energy from the environment? I think one of my favorite exercises in meditating on what is violence was actually when a Charley had pointed out. John wick is not a violent movie. Thinking about that and I watched it with that meditation in mind and it was absolutely fascinating because there is a lot of messiness. There's a lot of people dying. A lot of hostility, a lot of pew, pew, pew, and shooting and stabbings and all kinds of stuff. Lots of action but John wick does not perpetrate violence. it's very fascinating, but like I said, that's a whole topic for other days. It's a good way to try to get this idea across, because it shows the difference between a hostile act and violence. Yeah. John wick in that movie franchise, and especially in the first film. Always gives people the choice. Yeah. Just leave. Just give up this doesn't have to go down like this. I'm just here to talk. I'm just here for this. I'm just here for that. The option is always on the other person to engage in hostilities. He is not imposing the hostilities on the other. And that is at its root what violence is. What is done to him is violence. They break into his house. They are stealing from him. They kill his dog. And as we all know, you don't mess with the dog. Never mess with the dog. Never mess with the dog. Violence is done to him, but he does not return violence for violence. He returns the option of force, the option of any of retaliation, but he does not actually return violence for violence. It is an interesting perspective when you realize that what makes him a very different action movie? Character. It's also why storms are so fascinating to look at because from that perspective, they're messy. They might be hostile. They may cause death, but they do not remove the agency of freewill from the individuals. I don't want to get too deep into the depth of this because we have the other point we need to get back to peace. And we're going to be talking about peacemaking more in the not too distant future. It's actually on the schedule. But when we're talking about this removal of agency, Violence comes in a lot of different forms. And when we're talking about peacemaking, We often think about ending war. Or ending conflict, both of which are. Valid. In the actual making of peace. But so is justice. Justice is vital in bringing about peace. As a queer couple I think one of the greatest peace we felt in this country was when the Obergefell. , decision came down and queer and gay marriage was legalized in this, in these United States. We had been married twice before that. We had a handfasting. Which was just us and some friends at a. Park. And that meant a lot. That's our first union our second union, was a civil union in the state of California and that meant something, but it was also very, hollow. It was very transactional. Extremely bureaucratic. Extremely bureaucratic. Uh, we'll call her Olga. dah she slammed the stamp on the, on the table and everything. I wept, but not for emotional reasons. It just felt so cold and clinical. When we actually got married. When we got to go get our marriage license and we were in the room with the pastor signing our marriage license I wept. Yeah, I wept in a way that I wasn't quite prepared for, because this was peace. In it's greatest. Expression. This long-held removal of agency had been removed. This violence that had been imposed on us in particular and people like us in general, was gone. We could make this volitional choice. Not only that, but it was done without removing anybody else's agency. The priest that officiated. Wanted to officiate. Yeah. He was happy to do it. Yeah. Because that's the thing, you know? I remember all the arguments. Well, you're going to force churches. No one is forcing anybody. It was removal of violence. You know, not taking away from that agency. That's really the key to understanding how peace works. Is yes, sometimes peace, is a zero sum game. If you were in a war and two sides are fighting over a particular tract of land, that's a zero assault. There's only so much land. That land has to be divided, equitably or at least in a way that resolves the conflict. So, yes, there, there are times when a zero sum game is actually being played. But for the most part, when we're actually trying to resolve a conflict, there actually isn't a zero sum. No one has to lose four piece to be achieved. It's hard to get people to understand that. That is why to me, peace is really a part of the via negativa and not part of the via transformative of the transformational way. Which is where I think a lot of people would see it in the four paths. I think the negotiations and everything. The justice making aspects of it are parts of the via transformative of the fourth path. The actual peace itself is here in the second because peace requires the letting go and letting be. That is core to the idea of the via negativa of this silent way, of the second half. We have to let go because what was really at stake, what was at risk, if you will, in this action of legalizing same gender marriage, which is the analogy, the example that we're using for this. Was the ego of the people involved. If your ego was tied into the idea of your own supremacy because of the nature of the relationships that you partook in, as opposed to the nature of the relationships that we're going to be legalized here. Then you felt. a change. We as peacemakers need to be able to see and recognize that feeling of change but at the same time, not to cater to it as if the feeling of change is the same as actual change. Those who felt that a change had occurred, that was a violence done to them, of something being taken away from them is a true and valid feeling, but it is not a true invalid thing that happened. And this is something that we in our society have not been very good at recognizing is the difference between those feelings and those actualities. It's one of the things that makes it harder for us to actually achieve peace is. Peace. Often has hurt feelings. Yeah, and to your point of that. It is with that letting go. It's such a strong and important element in that. Um, a lot of times, like you said, it is letting go of the ego. a lot of times it's for a lot of individuals I had conversations with and helped them over time, too , better live with it be comfortable with, and to come to peace with other lives that are not like theirs, was recognizing their own ego, that their path is not everyone else's path, forcing their path on another individual is an act of ego. It isn't. a good act and they had to learn to let, go and accept that others aren't trying to do that to them. That they need to stop trying to do it to others. Because it made them defensive, because they were perpetrating it. So they were thinking others were trying to do it to them. So they're like, oh, well now I'm going to have to go get gay, married, you know? As I would here it phrased and it's like, no, no, if you're happy in a husband and wife relationship, than be happy in your husband and wife relationship. We will all celebrate that and just let go of the fact that. That individual needs to stop pushing that one path on others so that they can then also be at peace. Letting go of this expectation and perception that others are pushing it on them. . That really is the heart of what we're talking about here. I like to make media references because I think it's something that when we have a hard time expressing a truth , as rabbi Nachman said, "to show a person their true face. Show them through story." I think stories can really help us to understand a lot of these issues better. while it is a silly show in many respects, Derry Girls is really good at showing this sense of peacemaking. While it is about three girls and james. It's lumped in with them because of his backstory and family connections, and what have you. And just, they're kind of silly adventures in Northern Ireland. There's a current running through the entire series about the peace process, which was also going on at the time. And the approaching good Friday Accords. And in fact, The final episode of the series, I'm getting emotional talking about it because it is such a profoundly emotional episode in a series, is the vote over the good Friday Accords and whether or not there would be peace in the island. Because everyone had to give up something. Everyone had to change the way that they had been thinking about this conflict and everything that had been going on. Watching this profound meditation. Which I don't think would have been as profound in some ways, if it wasn't for the fact that we had seen these girls and James. Go through all of these. Very silly adventures. Very emotional adventures. We've watched them grow up over the three seasons of the show. This extremely momentous occasion with them being old enough to vote. And one of the first votes they really have to engage with, is this, what is the entire future of their country? What is Ireland going to look like going forward? Are the troubles going to persist? Or will the good Friday accord is actually doing anything. Well, they accomplish anything. There's a lot of interesting debate and argumentation. Throughout the episodes about. how do you forgive,. Some of these people that were being set free from prison had murdered people. Or had been involved in devastating terrorist attacks. How do you forgive? How do you move forward? Which that touches in on the second part of that, the fear. The fear. Watching them have to grapple with that. And come to their own opinions. The show doesn't have a where these right or wrong, were any of these feelings right or wrong because they're personal. How do you let go of the feelings of hurt? How do you let go of those feelings of pain? How do you work through that fear? that is a personal journey. I really wish there was a panacea, a thing that I could tell you, right here and now, and say, just to take these five simple actions and you too will be free from fear. The only thing I can say on that, the closest thing that there is to that, would be, it's in the via. Negativa the letting go. It's not an easy one. But it is a tremendous step is learning when you see that fear you have to. recognize it and give it a hug. Then let it go. And watch it. Oftentimes it disappears. Sometimes it doesn't. Um, whose practice was that sitting and giving your fear hug. Um, Pema Chodron in her many pain and fear meditations talks about holding your pain, holding your fears as if it's a crying child. And to visualize it as a crying child and let it weep. But just sitting there with it and letting it have its tantrum, letting it have its moment. But doing that all in this imaginal space, this visualized space where you're holding it as a child and soothing it. Letting it rest and find that rest and relaxation. And really helping it to let go. Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche in his book Shambhala. Talks about courage, this bravery is very important quality of the spiritual warrior. In there, he points out that the Tibetan word that he is relying on here for bravery means to jump over. To jump past. That bravery is not the absence of fear. It's having the strength. To jump over the chasm created by fear to get to the other side. I have always loved that image. It's of being able to go to the other side, of getting across to get to the other side. That it's about weathering that storm about making it to the other way. Because faith and fear are so intimately connected. . Faith is learning to have trust. Fear is the active distrust of an individual, of a situation. Depending on how acute and pervasive the fear is, it could be the distrust of everything. They are both born out of our instincts. They were things that helped our ancestors out. To survive to thrive and they continue to help us today. To warn us of possible dangers. And to help us be bold. And to do things that aren't rational. But allow us to go to the moon. That was acts of faith. There was science, but they weren't sure of it. There was a lot of faith. To pack one self on top of a bunch of explosives. They have faith that it will be controlled to cast someone. that far. There was a non-zero chance that when the Lander touched down the surface of the moon, It wouldn't stop. We knew that the moon was dusty. We didn't know how thick the dust was, we didn't know how deep, how packed it was. We did not know exactly what would happen. We had ideas. We had theories. We thought we knew, but it was a non-zero chance. I love the phrase. Non-zero chance because it's the remotest of remote possibilities. But. The odds aren't to zero that it's going to happen. So, what does it mean to harvest piece? We named this episode, the harvest of peace. We started off with the concept of harvesting piece, but we've talked a lot about what peace is. Harvesting piece is grabbing it wherever you can. We live in a late stage capitalist world where our agency is violated constantly. We don't have a choice, whether or not we work at all, let alone at the job we probably have to work to make money because we have to pay that money to a landlord and pay that money to people for food and so on and so forth. That is a removal of choice. And so we're constantly, whether we recognize it or not, feel it as a background radiation in our life, we are constantly in the state of violence. Especially if you are of any minority status. If you're queer, if you're, I always feel weird saying a woman because 51% of the population is female, but yet they are still treated as a minority, which is mind boggling when you think about it, because they are actually a majority, but their agencies violated constantly. Oftentimes without even awareness by the perpetrator. If you're a member of a racialized or ethnic minority or a minority faith, you feel that lack of volition? That inability to live your life as you would like to live it, that violation of your will. That removal of agency. That is perpetrated against us all the time in a million big and little ways. How you dress when you leave the house, how you hold yourself when you move to the house, whether or not you code switch and use a different tone of voice, a different vernacular. When you engage with other people for safety. Those are removals of our agency and so we can live in the state of violence to the point where we don't recognize it as violence being perpetrated against us anymore. It's just normal. It's a normalcy and that is a terrible thing. As we are striving for justice as we are striving for that better world. Practicing Tikkun Olam the reparation of the world. We are looking for those moments of peace. And collecting them and recognizing them and holding them dear. Whether that's a moment of peace that you find during a mindfulness meditation or any other kind of meditation. A moment of piece that you feel listening and singing along to your favorite piece of music, that moment of peace that you have just when you take that sip of coffee and it's just perfect. It's what you wanted. Or even just harvesting that moment of peace after you've been violated. After your free will has been violated by some fool acting a fool. Just letting it go. When you get a chance to take a step back. Pausing and taking a deep breath and letting it go. Because, having attachment to that, to the suffering, to the fear and the anger and the hate that that moment could breed. Just let it go. You don't need to hold onto it. I feel like this is one of those moments where we have to point out that letting it go is not the same as pretending it didn't happen. Yes, because I think a lot of people conflate those two ideas. Yeah. Letting it go means holding things open-handed it may still sit on your hand. But you are not forcing it to be there. You are not grabbing it so tight that you were pressing the shape of it into your flesh, into your soul, into your mind and into your emotions. That's what letting go is. It is opening your hand. Things can still be held in your hand when they're open , but you are not pressing them into your skin. Yeah. You could take a quarter. Put it in your hand, if you squeeze your hand really tight, that quarter will hurt you. It will hurt your hand. It will hurt you and you'll see the imprint of it. It leaves a mark. It harms you, but if you set it on your hand, leave your hand open. The quarter is still there. It's still your quarter. It's still on your hand, but. It is no longer causing suffering. That's really what is meant by letting go in the circumstances. We can hurt ourselves more than others have already hurt us. In how we hold on to the pain that they have caused. And I've said this many times before, but to me, the difference between pain and suffering is how hard we hold on to the pain. That's what harvesting piece is about. It's learning to have that open hand. It's learning to let go and let be. It doesn't mean that we don't do something about it. We practice the way of the four paths. The via transformative is coming. In fact, it is out of the union of the via positive of the first path and the via negativa the second path that the via creativa is born, that our creativity is born. The place where we find the courage to ride these ideas to ride. To birth God. This is half of the energy that brings that forward. So justice making this coming. We have to learn to let go. So that we're not holding on so tight that we cannot speak. You cannot sing with a closed throat. So in an honor of this, the new moon and an honor of Lunasa and harvesting peace. Let's let's take a moment and exercise harvesting piece together. We're going to take a deep breath together. Is everybody ready? And let go. And that is a moment of peace. So hopefully you can find some time in your regular daily life. To like go. To harvest some peace to harvest some joy. And that can be as ritualized as in your meditations, in your prayers. Or like I said earlier, I find a good song that you just love to sing. That brings you joy. Because joy and peace, often dance hand in hand. And just give yourself that moment. Give yourself that time. Because if we're not regularly harvesting those moments of peace. Then the forces that are trying to Rob us of our agency and Rob us of our peace. I hope this episode has been helpful for you. I hope that it has meant something to you. I'm glad to be doing these podcasts again. I want to remind you if you can help us out.

I love the podcast, and can't remember right off the last new fav I heard on the podcast. In the last year or two I really got into Shane Henessey's guitar stuff—not sure if I heard it on your podcast or elsewhere. But I also pull out old favs. The Waterboys Room to Roam. Maybe not quite celtic, but a couple of the early bands had that flavor. And I'll put on some Great Big Sea—though sadly they aren't around anymore, Alan Doyle is still out there making music. And when I really feel the need to get up and dance, I thrown on some Natalie MacMaster. And then when I'm tired and need to get contemplative over a green beer (at least metaphorically green) I'll put on some Loreena McKennitt. And I can't begin to tell you how much great Celtic music you have turned me on to. Thank You! I'm looking forward to your St. Pat's month podcast!

Welcome to the Horn and Cauldron podcast…Whether you call it Lughnasadh, Lunasa, Lammas, or Freysblot marks the beginning of the harvest and takes place on August 1st, or the nearest weekend, which is about halfway between the summer solstice and the autumn equinox. In the southern hemisphere, it's celebrated on Feb 1st.This sabbat, which is named after the Celtic god Lugh, celebrates abundance, growth, fertility, solar energy, the harvest, honoring the dead, visiting holy wells, athletic contests, baking bread, visiting markets or fairs, hiking, and entering into contracts (marriage or otherwise). In this episode we dive into the connection between Lughnasadh and fitness, discussing the ways that you can supercharge your exercise routine with magic… and the ways you may already be doing it. We talk about our own experiences and give you plenty of ideas and correspondences so that you can exercise magically, too!

jQuery(document).ready(function(){ cab.clickify(); }); Original Podcast with clickable words https://tinyurl.com/2ryra9nh Contact: irishlingos@gmail.com The results of the Leaving Certificate will be published on Friday 25 August. Dé hAoine 25 Lúnasa a fhoilseofar torthaí na hArdteistiméireachta. Education Minister Norma Foley announced today that the results of the Leaving Certificate will be published on Friday 25 August. D'fhógair an tAire Oideachais Norma Foley inniu gur Dé hAoine 25 Lúnasa a fhoilseofar torthaí na hArdteistiméireachta. The Minister said that it is a significant situation that the results are available so early this year compared to the years of the pandemic when their publication was delayed. Dúirt an tAire gur cor suntasach é na torthaí a bheith ar fáil chomh luath sin i mbliana le hais bhlianta na paindéime nuair a cuireadh moill ar a bhfoilsiú. It is said that the lack of teachers to mark the exams was the main reason for the delay. Deirtear gur easpa múinteoirí leis na scrúduithe a mharcáil ba phríomhchúis leis an moill. Despite the pandemic being over, it will be taken into account when marking the papers that the teaching of the students who are taking the Advanced Certificate this year was interrupted when they were in the fifth year. Ainneoin an phaindéim a bheith thart, cuirfear san áireamh agus na páipéir á marcáil gur cuireadh isteach ar theagasc na scoláirí atá ag déanamh na hArdteiste i mbliana nuair a bhí siad sa chúigiú bliain. The aim of this measure is that there will be no imbalance in terms of points between them and students who have taken the exams in other years and who are looking for places in third level colleges this year. Is é is aidhm leis an mbeart seo nach mbeidh éagothroime ó thaobh pointí de idir iad agus scoláirí a rinne na scrúduithe blianta eile agus atá ag tóraíocht áiteanna i gcoláistí tríú leibhéal i mbliana. It was also announced today that students who are not feeling well will be allowed to take the exams after everyone else has taken them. Fógraíodh inniu chomh maith go mbeidh cead ag scoláirí nach bhfuil dóigh mhaith orthu na scrúduithe a dhéanamh tar éis do gach duine eile iad a dhéanamh. Students who are seriously ill or who have had a family member die are concerned. Scoláirí atá go dona tinn nó ar bhásaigh duine muinteartha leo atá i gceist.

Subscribe and get 34 Celtic MP3s for Free. THIS WEEK IN CELTIC MUSIC 0:06 - WELCOME 1:16 - WILLOWGREEN - A PIRATE HIDEOUT Willowgreen performs traditional, contemporary and original music from Ireland, Newfoundland, Scotland, Canada, U.S.A. and the rest of the Celtic music world. Their signature vocal style combined with instrumentation including harp, hammered dulcimer, bodhrán, guitars, button accordion, whistles and mandolin appeals to audiences of all ages. Jim Ofsthun bio: Jim is an original member of Willowgreen, and a talented vocalist and instrumentalist with international performances on Irish bodhrán, guitar, button accordion, and whistles. He is also a member of McInnis' Kitchen, and of Eira. He has family connections to the music through Ireland and Newfoundland, and is considered one of the top producers in Irish music in the Midwest. 4:37 - Willowgreen “Crocker's Cove Reel” from Willowgreen 7:34 - POITIN Poitín are an award-winning traditional Celtic band from Pilsen in the Czech Republic. They explore all forms of Celtic music but are firmly grounded in the pub session tradition and like nothing better than sitting round a table in the corner of a cosy pub playing old favourites about tarry sailors, merry maids and drunken nights. Poitín have performed at festivals across Europe in Italy, France, Poland, Denmark, Germany and the Czech Republic. As the album says, it's 'one for the road', to go with you and keep you company in your car or on your bike, and this Celtic world music will take you from Ireland to Argentina, from England to Egypt, from Brittany to the Czech Republic and beyond. 15:44 - Poitin “Claudy Banks” from One For the Road 17:58 - AMELIA HOGAN - TAKING FLIGHT Amelia Hogan is an impeccably authentic singer of Celtic music and her heart comes through in honeyed tones on Irish, Scottish, British, and American styled vocals. She sings in the Irish music tradition of Sean-Nós, or “old style” as well as accompanied. Amelia also plays bodhran and a small 22 string Welsh lap harp, and tours internationally to global acclaim. Amelia Hogan sings both traditional and contemporary folk music with lilting graces and subtlety. She'll weave a mysterious old magic that takes the listener out of time and place. She transports audiences with haunting melodies, holding them close, and stirs ancient spirits with an evocative storytelling presence. 24:07 - Amelia Hogan “Taking Flight” from Taking Flight 26:19 - FEEDBACK 28:24 - KINNFOLK Josh and Julie Kinn weave bouzouki, bodhran, and smooth vocal harmonies in their Celtic folk music from the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Kinnfolk have played at festivals and listening rooms throughout Virginia and beyond. In 2021, Kinnfolk was one of 10 bands--representing 10 countries from across the globe--selected to be part of the inaugural Robinson Emerging Artist Showcase hosted by the Goderich Celtic Roots Festival.

They are proud of their deep songwriting bench - the original songs of Boston Blackthorne have won several national and international songwriting competitions including first place in the International Narrative Songwriting competition and honorable mention in the International Songwriting Competition. The band's sound is centered around powerful vocal harmonies and lead vocals shared by several of the members.

ATLANTA IRISH DANCE BY BURKE AND CONNOLLY Earlier this year, I wanted to learn more about Irish dance. I contacted one of the co-founders of Atlanta Irish Dance by Burke and Connolly. Emma Burke is a certified Irish dance teacher and internationally certified Irish dance adjudicator, which allows her to judge Irish dance competitions world wide. During her Irish dancing career, she competed all over the world, winning titles throughout. Atlanta Irish Dance is the Premiere Irish Dance Academy in Georgia and one of the top Irish Dance Companies in the United States. They have an exciting performance based program run through their 501c3, in which they produce lively crowd-pleasing performances for crowds across Atlanta. Their dancers and teams are ranked 1st in the Region, 2nd in North America, and among the top 10 in the World. We talked a little about their Feis they do each year and Irish dance costumes. I'll break that up with some dance tunes. Feis vs Feisana from Atlanta Irish Dance 1:04:11 - Téada “Jigs - The Women of Monaghan / Nancy Hynes' / Tap the Barrel” from Coiscéim Coiligh / As the Days Brighten 1:08:13 - COSTUMING WITH IRISH DANCE 1:14:31 - Barrenhart “Haste To The Wedding/Drowsy Maggie/Harvest Home” from Celtic Grass 1:16:10 - THANK YOU PATRONS OF THE PODCAST 1:17:10 - BRAD TUCK - THE RED VIOLIN Born in Hant's Harbour, Newfoundland, Brad developed a love for music early in his life.

Brad was nominated for Traditional Artist of the Year at the 2018 & 2022 MusicNL Awards, and has released three full length albums, one EP and two Christmas singles. 1:20:14 - Brad Tuck “The Red Violin” from Stages Colin Farrell of Lunasa told a story back in show #579. 1:25:15 - LUNASA - THREE REELS Lúnasa is a traditional Irish music group, named after Lughnasadh, an ancient harvest festival.

Obviously, I am the host of this podcast. But I'm gonna read my current bio on my website like I've done with others. Marc Gunn is a Rhythm & Folk songwriter who fuses Irish and Scottish folk songs with pop culture. One brewery called it Sci F'Irish music. His musical weapon of choice is the autoharp. He breathes acoustic Rock and Roll into this folk instrument and adds a bellowing taste of rhythm & blues. Gunn found musical inspiration performing Irish drinking songs. He learned the art of performing at Renaissance faires and from his childhood idol, Elvis Presley, who said, “You've got to put on a show to draw a crowd.” His concerts are fun filled with sing along songs that get the audience's feet tapping. And now for my song… I first heard the song “Peggy Gordon” from a cassette of Irish Drinking Songs I found at Half-Price Books in Austin, Texas. I learned most of my early Irish song repertoire from that album, songs like “Whiskey in the Jar”, “Big Strong Man, “Wild Rover”, “Bog Down in the Valley” and lots more. Their version of “Peggy Gordon” was short, but memorable. I played it on and off for many years. I remember singing it at a pub in Switzerland when I met Heidi and Stef of the Celtic band Bow Triplets. In July 2009, I met my future wife, Gwen, while touring in Virginia. We had this whirlwind romance and began talking on the phone every day and went to see each other as much as possible even while I was out on tour. I was completely mesmerized by her. A few weeks later, I was back in Austin. I was scheduled to record my next studio album with Rich Brotherton. He's an incredible engineer and had done some brilliant work for Ed Miller and lots of top-notch artists in Texas. I was having trouble singing the song. I was pitchy and my voice lacked any real emotion. The lyrics have this great feeling of love and longing. Which is exactly the feeling I was having with Gwen so far away. And so… I closed my eyes, focused on Gwen, and sang. To this day, I still tell people it is one of my best recordings. Because I feel like I nailed it. And then to top it off, Rich Brotherton added some absolutely beautiful guitar work, as he did throughout that album. It is definitely one of my warmest and lushest and best-produced albums. 1:42:07 - Marc Gunn “Peggy Gordon” from The Bridge 1:46:26 - ENDA REILLY Enda Reilly is a folk singer, songwriter and guitarist from Dublin, Ireland. Firmly rooted in the Irish tradition with songs that strive for a better future, Enda Reilly's work invites you to see the world from his varied and unique perspective through each new song and project. From busking on Grafton Street to the National Concert Hall, Enda has performed on countless stages in his hometown of Dublin and beyond. 1:50:46 - Enda Reilly “Christmas True” from Christmas Is With Us 1:54:07 - CLOSING 1:54:22 - THE CHIVALROUS CRICKETS – LORD OF MISRULE The Crickets explore the roots, branches and crossroads of Celtic and English folk and American Old Time music. With equal attention to exhilarating performances and academic rigor, they bring to the stage boldly reimagined arrangements of standards and originals with traditional influence. With a particular focus on song repertoire, they're known for their rich vocal harmonies and fascinating textural blends incorporating over 15 instruments, both modern and ancient. They're a family band comprising two sisters, two couples and childhood friends. Four of their members are full-time classical musicians as well. 2:02:23 - The Chivalrous Crickets “The Lord of Misrule” from A Chivalrous Christmas The Irish & Celtic Music Podcast was produced by Marc Gunn, The Celtfather. The show was edited by Mitchell Petersen with Graphics by Miranda Nelson Designs. The show is supported by our Patrons of the Podcast on Patreon.

Asa Swain wrote: "Dear Marc, Thank you for playing “Banjos we have heard on high” in the Nov 28 episode (of the Celtic Christmas Podcast). It made me smile in delight. I hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas season. Thanks for sharing beautiful Celtic music with us year round. I've been listening to your show for about 15 years, I got a chance to chat with you at the online Boskone you attended in 2020. (On zoom) You talked about how wonderful traveling was. I haven't travelled overseas since 2019 (because of COVID), but in December my wife and I are going to spend a week exploring Iceland. We're very excited. (we'll only have 4.5 hours of sunlight each day, but we hope to see the northern lights) . All the best."

I was putting together this week's show when I realized the show was very instrumental heavy. Until very recently, the Celtic supergroup, Lúnasa, played entirely instrumental music.

Nuacht Mhall. Príomhscéalta na seachtaine, léite go mall. * Inniu an fichiú lá de mhí Lunasa. Is mise Liam Ó Brádaigh. Táthar ag súil go mbaileoidh na sluaite ag Béal na Blá in Iarthar Chorcaí an deireadh seachtaine seo le haghaidh lá cuimhneacháin ag comóradh céad bliain ó bhásaigh an ceannaire míleata agus polaitiúil, Mícheál Ó Coileáin. Ba dhuine lárnach é Ó Coileáin i gCogadh na Saoirse in Éirinn a thug tacaíocht don Chonradh Angla-Éireannach. Mharaigh ionsaitheoir anaithnid é i luíochán i mBéal na Blá i rith an Chogaidh Chathartha. Beidh an Taoiseach, Mícheál Martin, agus an Tánaiste, Leo Varadkar, i láthair ag an searmanas, a chraolfar beo ar RTÉ Dé Domhnaigh. Briseadh an churiarracht náisiúnta don Éireannach is tapúla riamh sa rás céad méadar. Is é Israel Olatunde, fear as Dún Dealgan atá 20 bliain d'aois, an fear is sciopthaí in Éirinn tar éis 10.17 soicind a ghlacadh sa rás a rith sé ag Craobhchomórtas na hEorpa i München na Gearmáine Dé Céadaoin. Chríochnaigh Olatunde sa séú háit sa rás. Rinne Paul Hession, iar-shealbhóir na curiarrachta comhghairdeas le Olatunde, ag rá go bhfuil sé thar a bheith am a churiarracht féin a shárú. Agus níos déanaí, bhris reathaí eile, Rhasidat Adeleke, déagóir as Baile Átha Cliath, an churiarracht do rás ceithre chéad méadar na mban. Shéan Aireacht Gnóthaí Eachtracha na hIaráine go raibh baint ar bith acu leis an ionsaí a rinneadh ar an údar Salman Rushdie an tseachtain seo caite. Tuairiscítear go bhfuil Rushdie ina dhúiseacht agus in ann é féin a chur in iúl tar éis ionsaí le scian agus é i mbun caint a thabhairt i Nua Eabhrac. Tharla an t-ionsaí 33 bliain tar éis do Ayatollah Khomeini, ardcheannaire na hIaráine ag an am, fatwa nó ráiteas reiligiúnach a eisiúnt, ag iarraidh ar Mhoslamaigh Rushdie a mhárú mar gheall ar a úrscéal The Satanic Verses – leabhar a chreid Khomeini a bheith diamhaslach. Phléadáil Hadi Matar, an fear a gabhadh as an ionsaí, neamhchiontach in iarracht dúnmharaithe agus cúisimh ionsaithe dara céime Déardaoin. * Léirithe ag Conradh na Gaeilge i Londain. Tá an script ar fáil i d'aip phodchraolta. * GLUAIS ionsaitheoir anaithnid - unknown assailant luíochán - ambush curiarracht náisiúnta - national record reathaí - runner diamhaslach - blasphemous neamhchiontach - innocent

Next Week: The Women of Irish & Celtic Music I titled this episode “Slow Travel”. Today, I got an email from VisitScotland.com. That's a website promoting Scottish tourism. Since I'm leading a Celtic Invasion Vacation to Loch Lomond in Scotland, I've been subscribed and seeing what they have to offer. Today, they shared an article and video about Slow Travel. That's something that I greatly appreciate and cherish with my own vacations. It's not about seeing everything. It's getting to know an area. Check out the link in the shownotes. And I highly recommend their newsletter. They seem to be leading the pack when it comes to promoting ecotourism and sustainable travel. Stuff I've slowly thought about. But they're really doing it in Scotland. So kudos! Let's get on with the show. VOTE IN THE CELTIC TOP 20 FOR 2022 This is our way of finding the best songs and artists each year.

The rest of it is a bunch of original songs with Celtic - inspired music. There's a few comedy tracks like “Mingulay Cat Song”, “Why Do You Torture Me”, “Genetic Counseling Song”, and “Kilty Pleasure”. There's a new hobbit song inspired by Lord of the Rings and a song I think Wolf Loescher sang on this podcast a year ago. There are four songs inspired by the pop culture TV show, Firefly, but fused with Celtic sounds. The lyrics are definitely relevant to fans of the show, but the stories are about real people finding change. One of my favorite parts about the album is collaboration with other musicians like Screeched Inn, The Muckers, Jamie Haeuser, Sam Gillogly, Nathan Deese, and Mikey Mason. It's now on sale in my Bandcamp store. Check out Selcouth now. THANK YOU PATRONS OF THE PODCAST! Because of Your kind and generous support, this show comes out at least four times a month.

What are you doing with your local celtic community? Email a voicemail message to celticpodcast@gmail.com Donald Rice emailed: "Dear Marc, First of all, I love your podcast, music, and cats. I just submitted an album from the band I am in - Poitin. We are based in Fargo/Moorhead - Fargo is in ND, Moorhead in MN. They are sister cities across the Red River of the North, which is the river named in the album title - Banks of Red River. What is particularly noteworthy about Banks is that it features Metis music, a tradition which melds Irish, French, and Native sounds and stories. Though we play many Irish tunes and some originals, Metis music has become our special calling card, having played at many festivals and venues including a recent Metis festival at the Old Treaty Crossing in Northern Minnesota. Our music also has been featured at many community and youth orchestra concerts. You can see some of this on videos on our website, which was included in the submission. Thanks so much for considering playing our music on your podcast. Let me know if you have any questions." Buddy McPeak emailed: "Just found the podcast on pandora. Great music! I'll be listening from now on. Thanks" Karen H emailed: "Hi Marc, I am a recent Patron. :) I joined so I can expand my knowledge of and listening experiences with other Celtic Musicians. I have very little of each at the moment. So, my favorites that I've listened to for years are: Altan, Lunasa, The Gothard Sisters, The Chieftains, and though she is probably a different category, my all time favorite music artist no matter the genre is Enya. I have so much to explore in the Celtic music genre! I appreciate your podcasts."

"Roinnt oibrithe le filleadh ar oifigí faoi dheireadh Lúnasa". Taoiseach Micheál Martin has indicated that some workers will be allowed to return to their offices by the end of August as many more people will have received the Covid-19 vaccine by then. Thug an Taoiseach Micheál Martin le fios go dtabharfar cead do roinnt oibrithe filleadh ar a gcuid oifigí faoi dheireadh mhí Lúnasa mar go mbeidh an vacsaín covid 19 faighte ag i bhfad níos mó daoine faoin am sin. Speaking in Cork, the Taoiseach said that many young people recruited last year had not yet set foot in the offices of their bodies. Ag labhairt dó i gCorcaigh, dúirt an Taoiseach nár leag go leor daoine óga a earcaíodh anuraidh, nár leag siad cos fós in oifigí a gcomhlachtaí. He said the Government believes that these people want to spend part of the working week in the office. Dúirt sé go gcreideann an Rialtas gur mhian leis na daoine sin cuid den tseachtain oibre a chaitheamh san oifig. However, Micheál Martin argued that the Government would listen to the public health advice and that any changes would be made gradually. Mar sin féin, mhaígh Micheál Martin go n-éistfeadh an Rialtas leis an gcomhairle sláinte poiblí agus gur de réir a chéile a dhéanfaí aon athruithe. He also said that things have already been done this month that no one thought a month ago would be done and that this may be the case in August. Dúirt sé chomh maith go ndearnadh rudaí cheana féin an mhí seo nár cheap aon duine mí ó shin a dhéanfaí agus go mb'fhéidir go mbeadh an scéal amhlaidh i mí Lúnasa. With regard to physical separation in offices, the Taoiseach noted that all sectors of work have protocols for both internal and external work. Maidir le scaradh fisiciúil in oifigí, thug an Taoiseach le fios go bhfuil prótacail ag gach earnáil oibre faoi obair taobh istigh agus taobh amuigh araon. The Government is to announce further amendments to the Covíd-19 restrictions for July and August at the end of this month. Tá an Rialtas le tuilleadh leasuithe ar shrianta Covíd-19 don Iúil agus do Lúnasa a fhógairt ag deireadh na míosa seo.

Introduction Peter Bluckert is the founder of Courage & Spark, pioneers & thought leaders in the Gestalt approach to Leadership Development. He is also the founder and has led and grown four successful coaching & Leadership Development consultancies. Peter is a prolific writer. He is the author of several books & articles including; Psychological Dimensions of Executive Coaching, Gestalt Coaching-Right Here Right Now and Gestalt Coaching: Distinctive Features. He also co-founded the European Mentoring & Coaching Council (EMCC). Peter's other passion is music and for this episode, he asked the acoustic musician Ed Boyd, band member of Lunasa and Flook to compose an outro to simulate team coaching. I sincerely hope you enjoy both the conversation and this music piece. Podcast Episode Summary This episode illuminates what is involved in a transformational team development journey. Peter explores the role of a Team Coach and shares some important distinctions & capacities that Team Coaches need to possess to support team development. The episode is littered with gems, words of wisdom and stories that bring to life Peter's approach and the value of his offer. I particularly enjoyed his football story at the end of this episode where Peter demonstrates his skill in genuinely helping a team transform. Points made over the episode The reason for entitling this episode as The Amazing Journey is explained Peter Bluckert's model and approach often takes anywhere between 18 months to 4 years with a team. It is not uncommon that a team will approach this work with some order of anxiety and trepidation even resistance. Team Coaches can have influence and impact with a team. They can improve the quality of conversation, help the team offer deep levels of sharing, disrupt dysfunctional patterns, improve team mood, spirit and belief & accelerate personal and leadership development. Important that a team coach has the ability to create conditions of deep trust and psychological safety. Openness, Trust and Safety are critical success factors in team development Often Team Coaches meet their own anxiety by over structuring events and relying too heavily on content. Our role is to create enough space for the Team to do their work Team Coaches need to possess a holding presence, they need to grade their experiments and not go too fast. They need to invite team members to stand in the metaphorical swimming pool and take a dip Context is such that we have to manage our own anxiety and help the team see that slowing things down is the work to reflect, to notice self to notice self in relation to others -all requires a different pace As Team Coaches we have to hold the tension and not react to a client by giving them an approximation of their world. Process versus Content is an important distinction Peter learnt early on in his career. Most of us have only a partial awareness of this important distinction. By being overly focused on content we miss each other, we miss communication issues, we miss team dynamics and relationship issues. We miss a lot. Peter shares how he introduces a team to group process work. He then described his model and approach to team development. He shared it is a combination of individual work and team work as well as a focus on the Leader. He invites the team to declare their current reality and to determine what it needs to learn and change to deliver its stated mission. He determines if the team has a clear and compelling Purpose, Values and Team Behaviours as well as Group Norms that team members will buy into. In addition he will afford the team skill development as well as teaching moments, including the ability to self -reflect, build awareness, take personal responsibility & regulate emotions. He works to uncover team dynamics and finally he supports a team consider their immunity to change using the work of Kegan & Lahey. The work Peter does with a team could be described as Truth Telling. He helps the team develop their capacity to dialogue, to notice their own patterns, bias's and habits. Team Coaching is complex and as an external intervener we never know all that is going on in a system. We can get lost, blind- sided by a team and in those moments we have to be patient to allow the fog to clear and gently see what might be figural. We have to be careful how we share and put into the team. It is wise to offer stuff lightly with humility. Working with teams Peter will check for the kind of support that is available for team coaching and the level of real commitment for the work Peter closed the episode by sharing a piece of pivotal work he did with a football team in Ireland that was in danger of being relegated. In this we hear his approach and success with the team. Finally Peter shared the reason for the change in outro that listeners will experience by listening to the end of the episode The Outro has been composed by Ed Boyd an Irish acoustic musician who play for two bands Lunasa and Flook. This piece was created to approximate team life. A beautiful composition. Resources shared www.courageandspark.com Bluckert P.

Kiss me I’m Irish? St. Patrick’s Day? Why is St. Patrick’s Day/Week/Month celebrated with shenanigans all over the world? Where did St. Patrick really come from (Hint, it wasn’t Ireland). And where do we come from? How did we really get to such a day of meaning so deep, that the Irish and almost everyone else too, celebrate it so boisterously? Not just for a day or weekend, but now, for the whole month of March? What’s the true, authentic Story? Our very first podcast shall tackle these burning issues, and really, what are shenanigans? Why do the Irish dislike the clover but love the shamrock and why they are different, and of course, no celebration is worth its Irish Sea salt, without music. So, since everyone is Irish on St. Patrick’s Day, Sing Irish Men and Women, sing, with us!

Songs, Stories & Shenanigans The Invitation by Batt Burns Used with permission of Batt Burns Pull up your sugan chairs, my friends Close out the green half door And gather around the peat turf fire As we did in days of yore. I am glad you rambled in tonight, For the house was quiet and still. Herself was carding sheep wool, while I, my pipe did fill. There wasn’t a word between us, you’d swear a row was on. But memories were with us, of our children now all gone. To America and England, those lands across the foam Will they ever laugh and joke again, in our cozy Irish home? You’ve waked us from our reverie. Maybe it’s just as well. Before those memories saddened us, and a tear or two were shed. Your happy faces cheer us up. You’ve surely brought some news. And from my store of yarns, sure you all can pick and choose. Look to the blazing flame there, do you see what I can see, Dark heroes, fairy castles, warriors fighting to be free? There’s leprechauns and fairy folks, Oisin and Finn Mac Cool I can see them all so plainly there, from my little fireplace stool. Come back into the past with me as I speak of olden days When life was much more simple, and we all had purer ways. Oh there were no lounge bars or discos. TV we did not know. Yet we had fun and sport a plenty, in the Kerry of long ago. I was born and raised in Cleveland, Ohio. 1st Generation. So my roots go much deeper in Ireland, than they do in the U.S. I never thought much about it, until I went to Ireland. I remember the air, and the peace I felt, sitting on a stone wall, waiting for the train to Dublin and singing Kenny Roger’s songs with my sister Cathy. For me, a whole new valley of thought opened up. The missing connection, the only time in my life I have not felt deep-core restlessness, of not belonging, was when I was in Ireland. That feeling was not repeated until seventeen years later - when I went back. In an abandoned and disappearing churchyard I saw wind-rubbed tombstones that carried the same names as I know well today; George, Hubert, Desmond (who died in 1698), O’Brien’s all. Phillip O’Brien, my cousin, is the 11th generation to mind the hills and cows, milk the milk and sheer the sheep at Atteagh Mills. Atteagh Mills, near the town of Athlone, is in the Co. Roscommon, in south central Ireland. South Central LA it is not. It is farm country. His nephew is the 11th generation to mind the cows and sheep at Atteagh Mills. The “New House” is 266 years old, older than this country, and the old house? Well, it is just old, dating back to the 1600s. We have roots there. I have never “walked the land” with my father, as so many memoirs deem essential. Yet, I look out and see our ghosts, I hear their music, and that peace once again settles down, through my toes. I am rooted. Yet, only in my memory does the taste of belonging remain. The feeling of Ireland, nurtured by dances at West Side IA, bands, Sunday morning 78’s, then 8-tracks, before mass, and then Gaelic Football games and gatherings; Immersion at 3,000 miles. My father left Ireland soon after playing for the 1951 All-Ireland winning Roscommon U-21 Gaelic Football team. He was not the oldest son. The first time he returned was for his mother’s funeral, 38 years later. Through the roots of my past, I sometimes feel, that I never left. Since the Beginning of Man, The Hours between the Coming of Night and the Coming of Sleep have belonged to the Tellers of Tales and the Makers of Music I grew up in a house immersed in Irish culture. Growing up, the things I remember most are the frequent guests that we had stay overnight, when they were playing in Cleveland. Bridie Gallagher, Dermot O’Brien, Glen Curtin, Noel Henry, Makem and the Clancys, Barleycorn as well: so many names, so many memories. When I woke to the smell of bacon on a Sunday morning, I knew dad had brought the band home from the dance the night before, and the breakfast table was going to be full of stories from the road. It was a great way to grow up. As I got older, I started finding my own songs and singers that I loved. The albums and 8-Tracks that I heard became my own songs. One day my dad walked into my bedroom and said, “Johnny, we’re starting a festival, you’re doing the parking”. And he walked out. I was 16. The first few years, I worked the parking lot, parking cars and soaking up the sun, and the sun burn. When I graduated from college, I started doing the food, and moved onward from there. Because of the festival, dances and Sunday morning breakfasts, I became immersed in the music and, like many, I was deeply impacted by the message of Tommy Makem and how preserving and promoting the culture was so important, before it all fades away, and is lost, forever. Being able to meet, talk to, and form friendships with so many performers who had impact on the music, and on me, really influenced my thinking. My memories of the first festival are still very strong and I have so many cherished memories from the ensuing years, all related to the festival performers, many, like Tommy, now gone home. The volunteers and amazing, legendary afters parties and sessions are treasured. In my mind, they shall live in infamy. I was hooked on the music and still, to this day, learn as many songs as I can; Songs in my head, songs always on my tongue, songs I love to sing, songs that tell stories. We call them Folk Songs. Many have negative connotations of that term. They don’t realize folk songs are the heart of rock n roll, of blues, jazz, gospel, country, and even rap. For as Sean O’Casey said, in his Rose & Crown: Oh, and the folk-song, the folk-song, the gay and melancholy strains of the Irish folk-song, on fiddle, on harp, and on fife. And no folk-art is there but is born in the disregard of gain, and in the desire to add a newer beauty and a steadier charm to God’s well-turned-out gifts to man. In recent years, maybe as my strident side mellows and I meet people from all over the world in this writing life, I am more struck by the similarities in people than the differences. Every culture has its own niches, its’ cool things that touch your soul, but the similarities, especially of emotion and defining values, are remarkable, and unmistakable. William Butler Yeats said: Folk-art is indeed, the oldest of the aristocracies of thought, and because it refuses what is passing and trivial, the merely clever and pretty, as certainly as the vulgar and insincere, and because it has gathered unto itself the simplest and most unforgettable thoughts of the generations, it is the soil where all art is rooted. Tommy Makem is the Godfather of Irish music. He wrote more than 400 songs, the anthem, Four Green Fields, of course, as well as Gentle Annie, Winds of Morning, The Winds Are Singing Freedom and so many other iconic songs, songs that are sung wherever the Irish gather around the world. They are the stories of our people, and today those songs are sung by Gaelic Storm, We Banjo 3, Lunasa, Runa and just about every popular Irish band performing today. Our stories define us; our culture is a story-driven one, an oral tradition passed on generation to generation. We pass the stories on so our roots, our history, our very identity stays vibrant and alive – you see it around you here and now - it is our connection to our past, AND our present. My story is not the only one I am trying to tell. Tommy wrote Four Green Fields one day while driving down to Newry, in the Co. Down. He saw a woman coming down from the fields with the cows, to cross the road. They were both stopped at a British checkpoint. Tommy watched her as he, and she, waited to go thru. He could see the, Hassle, as the woman just wanted to get on across the road, to get on with her life. He wrote the first two verses then, and the final one later, when he got to Newry. Four Green Fields is a song full of symbols, in its simplicity. The Four Green Fields symbolically refer to the 4 Provinces of Ireland: Leinster, Munster, Ulster & Connaught, which hold the 32 counties, most similar to our states. The symbolic “fine, old woman” represents Ireland herself. What did I have? said the fine old woman What did I have? this proud old woman did say I had four green fields, each one was a jewel But strangers came and tried to take them from me I had fine strong sons, they fought to save my jewels They fought and died, and that was my grief, said she Today, the oral tradition is more readily available than ever. Only now, it is electric! Name the poem, story or song, and you can often find it on the internet. This is an amazing this for our culture, and brings us full circle, because we can see more than just our viewpoint. There are three sides to every story – your side, my side, and the truth: now we can hear more than one side of the story. We can see the similar hurts, struggles, anger, joy and goals from a perspective never before available to us, and we can make our own decision, based upon a person, and their character, not their religion, or the place they were born; whether you were born in Boston, in Belfast, or in Bethlehem. We can never forget, but if we ever want to move on, and we must move on, or be left far behind, we must see the similarities and common ground between people of a different perspective, no less relevant to them. You and I, we were raised on songs and stories, we are Irish, that will never change. We must always be aware of from where we came, and how we got to where we are today. Don’t look back, we are not going that way is not an all-encompassing statement – it is simply a way to focus on our future. No matter the internet’s ready providence of what it calls fact, we cannot forget the story, We cannot forget our past, our traditions and the events and people that define us today. We just can’t let the things that defines our past, also be what defines our future. Tolerance implies no lack of commitment to one’s own beliefs. Rather, it condemns the oppression or persecution of others. - John F. Kennedy He also said: “Mankind must put an end to war, before war puts an end to Mankind.” Old soldiers never die, but young ones do. No matter from which side of the river that runs thru us we come, we are shaped by those with us, and those opposite. When we strip away the mantles that we wear, we see men and women, not orange and green. When we see Christians, not Catholic or Protestant, we see the hand of God. I’ve run out of time. I hope you’ve enjoyed our very first podcast. I hope the poems and verse today shows how our similarities, tho often hidden, tie us together, more than the difference tear us apart. It is St Patrick’s Day, a day of great celebration and reunion, unseen anywhere else in America. I hope you have a great day of fun, respect, and reunion. There are many more songs and stories; I hope we will write new ones- of joy, of unification. We are closer to a One Ireland, than we have ever been in 800 years. We’ll save them for next time, March 27th, when we meet again, and move from our past, to our present day, and future.

EP9 - This week’s Tradfest show presented by Ruth Smith and Kieran O'Hanrahan features a host of amazing talent including Ailbhe Reddy, The Lost Brothers, Mark Redmond with Patrick Fitzpatrick plus gig news for Christy Moore, Lunasa and Altan live from The Temple Bar in Temple Bar, Dublin, Ireland.
Inspiration is a funny friend. It finds you and guides you. It takes you to strange and wonderful places. It introduces you to heroes. I started playing Celtic music in 1999... by accident. I had three "Celtic" songs in my song repertoire: "The Scotsman", "Irish Ballad" by Tom Lehrer, and an original Enya-esque song with nonsensical lyrics called "Lounging in La La Land". I was practicing on the South Mall at the University of Texas at Austin when red-haired gentleman asked if I'd like to perform at a Renaissance festival. As a Dungeons & Dragons nerd, I was so excited I asked my friend Andrew McKee to start a band with me. Soon the Brobdingnagian Bards found new Celtic music heroes and inspiration. For me, it was The Wolfe Tones, Christy Moore, The Irish Balladeers, and some random cassette that was called Irish Drinking Songs. That was my introduction to Celtic music. Those were my first Celtic music heroes. Later, I added Ed Miller, Serious Kitchen (featuring Vicki Swan & Jonny Dyer), Dougie MacLean, The Elders, Gaelic Storm, Clandestine, and even Bing Crosby. So of course many of these you have heard on my podcasts. Who are your Celtic music heroes? Welcome to the Pub Songs Podcast, the virtual Public House for Celtic culture and change through music. My name is Marc Gunn. I am a Celtic Geek musician and your guide to a kinder, happier world. Today’s show is brought to you by my Heroic Gunn Runners on Patreon.

Amy Goodwin emailed back in March: "Hi Marc, Caught a bit of your live feed last night- our delta internet couldn’t quite keep up with the live aspect. Managed to see a few songs- including the one about the cats knocking over glasses. As one who lives with toddlers, I found the song very relevant! We’ve been listening to the podcast the past weeks while decking the house out in green and getting out all of the kids’ leprechaun books. In case your kids are interested, a few of our favourites are Jamie O’Ruorke and the Pooka, Fiona’s Luck, and That’s What Leprechauns Do. We were in B’ham last weekend for a birthday party and got to see some of the new Jetsons interstate construction y’all have going on. What an ambitious project!" Amy Goodwin emailed: "Today, we’re listening to the podcast while... the small children are using the hose to “wash” the hammock. husband is hunting the snake that threatens the chickens/kittens. I am getting ready to enjoy national wine day!" Danielle Vergara emailed: "Hi Marc, I just wanted to write to you to thank you for this lovely podcast. There is such a great variety of music, and a great selection of artists. Being a 17-year-old visually impaired musician that plays a lot of Trad Irish music, it's wonderful to see a podcast that is dedicated to Celtic music! With that being said, I shall continue to be a listener, and this podcast shall continue to help me with schoolwork!"
This week on Windy City Irish Radio Tim and Mike take a 60 minute musical journey across the green fields of Ireland with a Trip to Gort with Donal Lunny, Zoe Conway and Máirtín O'Connor to Paddy's Green Shamrock Shore with Lúnasa with Daoirí Farrell. Along for the ride are songs and tunes from Scotland's Heron Valley and Brave Giant, New York's Na Fianna and Dylan Foley and Chicago favorites Martin Hayes & Dennis Cahill and The Chancey Brothers. Make sure you should listen for new tracks from Dublin's Tupelo, I Draw Slow and and a track from some years back from Paddy Casey Music with the Dublin Gospel Choir. If you're still with us, make sure you stick around for the triumphant finale with the great Mavis Staples with Glen Hansard in honor of her performance at this weekend's Chicago Blues Festival.
