Lughnasadh

Lughnasadh is a traditional Celtic festival held on August 1st, halfway between the Summer Solstice and the Autumnal Equinox, that celebrates the start of the harvest season and is named after the Celtic sun god, Lugh, one of the Tuatha Dé Danann. Often portrayed as a warrior and a king, Lugh is also the god of craftsmanship, associated with skill and mastery in many disciplines, and is the divine father of Cú Chulainn, the greatest hero of Irish legend.

Harvesting of crops is an important annual event in all agricultural calendars. This was especially so in the past when harvesting, done by hand, was a race against the weather, time, and nature. When summer is at its peak and the first berries start to ripen, it’s time to harvest. Saving crops for winter was important for survival and there are many beliefs, customs, and rituals linked to the harvest time.

Ireland has its own unique old harvest customs that represent prosperity and abundance of blessings. The connection to agriculture and nature led to similar harvest traditions on all parts of the island, regardless of religion. Harvesting officially began at Lughnasadh and harvest rituals were observed in August and September.

Ancient communities marked the festival by gathering grains from the first harvest of the growing season. Wheat, barley, oats, and corn were vital for surviving the long cold winters of the Northern Hemisphere. On August 1st, grain was harvested in the dawn hours and baked into loaves of bread to be shared by the community. Modern day agricultural fairs continue some of the traditions of Lughnasadh, such as Puck Fair in Killorglin, Co. Kerry.

Lughnasadh is associated with symbols of mid and late summer including sunflowers, sheaves of grain, and harvest tools such as scythes. Associated colours are drawn largely from nature, and include bold shades of yellow, bright greens, and orange. Stones associated with Lughnasadh include citrine, peridot (the birthstone for August), carnelian, gold topaz, clear quartz, and amber. Lúnasa is the Irish word for the month of August.

Some traditions associated with Lughnasadh include:

First fruits offering: It is common for people to offer the first harvested crops to the gods as a sign of gratitude and to seek blessings for a bountiful harvest season.

Bonfires are an essential part of the festivities. People gather around the fire, often on hilltops or sacred sites, and participate in various rituals, games, and activities to mark the occasion.

Feasting: A grand feast is often prepared to celebrate the abundance of the harvest. Foods made from the freshly harvested crops, such as bread, corn, berries, and fruits, are featured in the feast.

Handfasting and weddings: Lughnasadh is considered an auspicious time for weddings and handfasting ceremonies, a temporary form of marriage that lasted a year and a day.

Crafting and art: Artisans and craftsmen often showcase their skills during Lughnasadh, displaying their handcrafted goods at fairs and markets.

Gratitude and reflection: Lughnasadh is a time for expressing gratitude for the harvest and reflecting on the cycle of life, death, and rebirth as symbolized by the crops.

During the early Middle Ages, as the influence of the Christian church spread, the ancient celebration of Lughnasadh and the first grain harvest were combined with Christianity. Early Christians took the first loaf of bread from the harvest to the local church to be blessed by a priest and referred to the festival as Lammas or “loaf mass”. It was a Lughnasadh tradition to get as close to the sun as possible to make offerings to Lugh, the Celtic sun god, so the custom of climbing hills and mountains has become a Christian pilgrimage in many areas. The best known in Ireland is the pilgrimage to the top of Croagh Patrick on the last Sunday in July, known as Reek Sunday.

The History and Meaning Behind Birthstone Jewelry

Birthstone jewelry has been worn and cherished for centuries, symbolizing personal identity, protection, and connection to the cosmos. Each birthstone holds a special meaning, linked to astrology, mythology, and spiritual beliefs. From ancient civilizations to modern trends, birthstone jewelry continues to be a meaningful way to celebrate individuality and mark life’s milestones. In this blog, we’ll explore the fascinating history and deeper meaning behind birthstone jewelry, uncovering why it remains such a beloved accessory.

1. The Origins of Birthstone Jewelry

The concept of birthstone jewelry can be traced back to ancient civilizations, with the earliest known references found in the Bible. In the Book of Exodus, the breastplate of Aaron is described as having twelve gemstones, each representing one of the twelve tribes of Israel. Over time, this idea of associating gemstones with twelve became linked to the twelve months of the year and the twelve zodiac signs in astrology.

By the 1st century AD, scholars like Flavius Josephus and St. Jerome further popularized the idea of wearing specific gemstones according to one’s birth month, believing the stones offered protection and good fortune. This tradition gradually evolved into the modern practice of gifting and wearing birthstone jewelry based on a person’s birth month.

2. Birthstone Jewelry in Different Cultures

Throughout history, different cultures have embraced the idea of wearing gemstones for their symbolic meanings. In Ancient Egypt, gemstones were believed to carry mystical powers, with stones like turquoise and lapis lazuli offering protection in the afterlife. Meanwhile, in India, birthstones have long been associated with Vedic astrology, with gemstones worn to align one’s spiritual energy and balance the planets.

In Europe, birthstone jewelry gained popularity during the Renaissance, with nobility and royalty adorning themselves with jewels that symbolized power and protection. Over the centuries, these gemstones became increasingly connected to one’s birth month, making birthstone jewelry a deeply personal form of adornment.

3. The Modern Birthstone List

The modern list of birthstones was officially standardized in 1912 by the American National Retail Jewelers Association (now known as Jewelers of America). This list remains the most widely accepted guide for birthstones, with specific gems assigned to each month. Here’s a quick overview of the modern birthstones by month:

January: Garnet

February: Amethyst

March: Aquamarine

April: Diamond

May: Emerald

June: Pearl or Alexandrite

July: Ruby

August: Peridot

September: Sapphire

October: Opal or Tourmaline

November: Topaz or Citrine

December: Turquoise, Zircon, or Tanzanite

Today, birthstone jewelry is often given as a gift to mark birthdays, anniversaries, and special milestones, with each gemstone believed to carry its own unique meaning and power.

4. The Symbolism of Each Birthstone

Each birthstone is said to possess specific qualities and meanings, making birthstone jewelry not only beautiful but also deeply symbolic. For example, garnet, the birthstone for January, is thought to symbolize trust and friendship, while the ruby, linked to July, represents love, passion, and protection. Birthstone jewelry allows individuals to wear pieces that align with their personalities, values, or life experiences, giving them a special connection to their gemstone.

For those born in April, diamonds are a symbol of strength, clarity, and purity. Meanwhile, emeralds, the birthstone for May, have long been associated with renewal, fertility, and wisdom. Each gemstone offers something unique, making birthstone jewelry a highly personal and meaningful way to express one’s identity.

5. Why Birthstone Jewelry Remains Popular Today

Birthstone jewelry has endured the test of time because of its personal significance and timeless beauty. Whether given as a thoughtful gift or worn as a personal statement, birthstone jewelry connects people to their birth month and the unique traits associated with their gemstone. Today, birthstone jewelry remains popular for all ages and occasions, from delicate rings to bold necklaces.

Its continued appeal lies in the way birthstone jewelry adds meaning to every piece. When someone wears their birthstone, they carry with them a gemstone believed to offer protection, bring good fortune, and reflect their inner strengths. It’s this combination of beauty and symbolism that makes birthstone jewelry a cherished accessory.

Conclusion

The history of birthstone jewelry is as rich and varied as the gemstones themselves.

Whether you’re drawn to the symbolism, the aesthetic, or both, birthstone jewelry offers a meaningful way to celebrate individuality and mark important moments in life.
