This storied modern kingdom turned out to be my stepping stone to beloved Taja, princess of the were-horses.

Introduction:

I’ll post updates here when separate trips (from the “Europe 50”) occur.  There are some photos and a video from my 2005 trip to Scotland, as well as those during military layovers in Ireland.  At present, only a return-trip to the Isle of Skye is planned.

 

England

My introduction to the ways of this part of the U.K. came from my 1st girlfriend’s nice family who had moved from there.

Ireland

I’ve passed through this storied fairytale land on layovers twice, and have since been introduced to much of its ancient (even pre-Flood) history.  Their ongoing belief in, and support of, the local fairies has always made me smile; I think they are right, and I hope to meet the current Tinkerbell equivalents soon.  There are even places across this island nation which restrict or prevent any construction if it is too close to what the people call ‘fairy highways’; routes which fairies are said to frequent both on the ground and close-by in the air.  I might meet the Oona I’ve been dreaming of here.

Land & Ruins:

 

The principal people who invaded and inhabited the island, according to the locals, are:

  1. Cessair and her followers,
  2. the Formorians,
  3. the Partholinians,
  4. the Nemedians,
  5. the Firbolgs,
  6. the Tuatha Dé Danann,
  7. and the Milesians.

Scotland

I was given great help from a local as I flew into, stayed at, and explored Edinburgh and a few other cities here on foot, even meeting a healer using crystals instead of pharmaceuticals, and one who knew various magics such as how to enter the mind during sleep and dreaming.  A lone poster of a flawless blonde Scottish teen model caught my attention, hinting at long lusted-for things to come (pun not initially intended).  When will my 2nd visit be, and will it complete the orientation?  I’ve heard of hidden Elf communities out on some of the Scottish isles; will I be invited there during Phase 3?  I cannot wait to meet Taja of Skye…  She is somewhere up there in the Highlands I’ve felt called to all along.

I’m not sure if its mountains and bodies of water are ancient ruins, but it’s a thought.

This one reminds me of the one I stopped my rental-car at when the new ear-issue was really frustrating me.  I hope the hidden beings out here understand I was a T.I., and know how to help heal what was done to me, and introduce themselves to offer that aid.  That would certainly be the right way to conduct themselves and unite with me.
