Childhood and modern Celtic witchcraft as a rule observes 4 cross-quarter fire festivals . In spite of that, in the "northern" parts of the ancient Celtic world, one finds that easily 3 fire festivals were observed. Fascinatingly, this "3 and/or 4" fire festivals observed due to the ancient Celtic world has a keep pace with in Jewish kabbalah and Hebrew script.
The "commentary of fire" called the eternal flash in Hebrew script is called a "shin" - it has 2 forms, one with 3 give somebody the pink slip and one with 4 give somebody the pink slip, the "shin of chochmah" and the "shin of binah", respectively. In both the Celtic prepare and the Hebrew prepare, the "3 and/or 4" awe is associated with fire - the fire festivals of the Keltoi and the fire commentary of the Hebrews.
The ancients knew something cosmically major and prearranged it at home the symbols and rituals of their ancient systems. I'm not spring about other mystical systems, but in my concern, decidedly the ancient Keltoi and Hebrews had this knowledge. It enchants me beautifully.
Footnotes:
The 4 fire festivals go with to the (Thorough) Moon Sabbats: Imbolg, Beltane, Lammas, Samhain.
The north itself corresponds to the element of fire according to the Zohar (Shemot, Va'Era).
