The Celts are known to have eight major festivals: four sun festivals and four moon festivals.
The sun festivals were held at the equinox and the shortest day or the longest day. The lunar festivals were always held between the solar festivals.
The Celtic festivals were characterized by a deep respect for nature.
It strengthens our connection to nature and the cosmos if we try to re-engage with these natural processes; if we honour what surrounds us with respect.
In this day and age - with the numerous side effects of modern life and the hectic pace of our everyday lives - there is a great danger that we no longer feel the rhythm of nature, the power of the sun and the moon and the magic of a solar or lunar cycle.
With this incense set, we would like to bring a little of the magic of those times back into the world.

Sehr schönes Set. Viele Räuchermischungen, sämtliches Zubehör ist dabei.
Das beiliegende Heft erklärt sehr schön und überschaubar die Bräuche und Feste.
1 Stern Abzug, da ich finde die Zange wirkt wie eine Plastikzange von Wish (blau lakiert?). Der Geruch könnte auch ein klein wenig intensiver sein.
- Tolles Räucherset mit tollen Räuchermischungen und einem klasse Heft, um sich in die Feste einzulesen und über die verschiedenen Bräuche schlau zu machen. Die Räuchermischungen halten für sehr viele Räucherungen.
