Newgrange author Anthony Murphy gives some of his thoughts on the difficulties facing Ireland and the ancient myths that might help her through her troubles.
As someone who fled the madness of N. Ireland in the 70's, I totally agree with your sentiments. I never left Ireland, spiritually or mentally. I love my home and it's monuments and have returned, even though I live in Cornwall, another Celtic nation.
Ireland is so special. We stand as a nation despite our hardships.
My great-great grandfather emigrated from Co. Mayo and immigrated here to the US back in the late 1840's. According to my grand aunts, he was homesick during his life here, across the pond. His name was Thomas O'Moore. Thanks for sharing this video.
I could have ended up being Canadian! My grandfather went there for a time to help build a railway. He needed the work. But he came back to Ireland, thankfully. I don't mean that in a spiteful way - it's just that, had things turned out differently, I might not know anything about Newgrange or the Boyne Valley!
That little chat was far from boring. Stirred my heart. Thank you. 💚
Glad you enjoyed it!
Can't believe I've lived in Northern Ireland my whole life & never heard about this?! I'm fascinated by the astrology aspect of it all & looking forward to learning more from you. It's amazing what you see when your eyes are wide open.
Thank you for the insightful comment. I think you are right. This is about awakening something very powerful and positive. That's the message of the mounds.
Love your videos, especially when it involves the beautiful Boyne Valley. The Boyne Valley is by far my favorite part of Ireland, such beauty, such wonderment, such history, you are one lucky man! During my time in Ireland I visited the Boyne Valley many times and each time something new was learned, I will never forget the experience, it gripped me, it holds my imagination and interest still, as i sit in my home in the US I can close my eyes and remember the sites, even the smells, such a wonderful place, take care of it, respect it and most importantly pass it on for future generations to experience, you are so lucky! PLEASE keep posting videos! LONG LIVE THE BOYNE VALLEY!
Thanks for this lovely message. And yes, if I am able I will keep posting new videos!
Anthony, the thread of gold is in your heart. I feel the same for the earthworks here in Yorkshire where we haven't even got the first people's legends. Be happy that you have, we are all brothers and sisters, all survivors.
Hi Anthony, a few years have passed since you posted this video but I only saw it today, it's got a very optimistic and welcome sentiment most appreciated, thanks
Séamus Ó Dúill thanks a million for that. So glad you enjoyed it.
Thank you, Anthony Murphy, for sharing your knowledge and love of Ireland…my great grand parents emigrated to NYC then, Calif. I finally made it to Ireland 3 years ago and so fortunate to tour Newgrange which was the most magical experience. I will return some day
+Lorna Peterson Thanks for the nice comments. I'm very glad to share what little knowledge I have. I love Ireland and its myths and monuments. It's the best place in the world, without equal.
That was far from boring. It was heartfelt & struck the deep chords.
Really enjoy your videos. I was in Newgrange and Tara recently for the first time although have passed it often on my way to Dublin. Definitely a spiritual aura around the location.
Thank you Lochlainn.
I love your passion and faith Murphy...it just might be enough to give the thing life..glad to find you
Thanks for that nice comment. I appreciate it. I love the myths and monuments.
This was a video I needed to watch these days.
I wish I knew about your channel sooner.......
I just stayed in Dublin for 4 days, and traveled Ireland for another 6 days, 10 in all. I came across the info of New Grange too late in my trip.....
Couldn’t get there. I even considered staying on and letting my family return to the US with out me.I need to go back. Soon. I look forward to watching more of your videos to plan my trip back. Thank you
Thanks for the nice comment Karen. I hope you are able to get back soon. Sounds like it's calling you.
Your comment of the young of Ireland emigrating to other parts of the world reminded me of an article I read in our local 'Celtic Connection' newspaper. In 2011, the Canadian government offered 4,200 working visas to young people of Ireland. One month later, the government changed that number to 11,000. Vancouver, B.C. boasts to have the largest Irish emigrated populace in all of Canada. I am 172 years Canadian of Irish descent; my family knows not where in Ireland they came from.
Yes you are quite right. There are moments in life where one needs to look beyond their boundaries in order to provide for family. That was quite courageous of your Grandfather to do such a thing. It would not have been an easy decision.
My family had no choice but to get on the boat during the Potato Famine of the 1830's. But, we were lucky in the land handout from the government at the time, as Canada was not Canada till 1867. 100s of acres, till this day...remains in the family of Smith.
Thank you! Ireland is such a mythical island. I read a great deal and for some reason, 50% of my reading always has something to do with the myths of Ireland. Like I said I don't know why but despite all the invading forces, the people of Ireland maintain and treasure their history. I'm American but my parents are native Puerto Rican. So many "explorers" did their very best to almost completely erase the Native Caribbean Taino. For myself, my husband and our 26 year old daughter, DO NOT CELEBRATE Columbus Day. The Nordic explorers, did not rape and destroy our island, But the European Destroyers wiped us out.

Love your work Anthony. In 2022, you don't seem to have aged :)
I wonder if we are in the times now of the Tuatha rising again, hopefully not to lose this time...before they were defeated by 'iron'? perhaps a bit like the Shambhala Warrior Prophecy of the tibetans that they take quite seriously... and they prophesied that the 'red force from the north''would become important to not only tibetans, but the whole world.. and iron is red-ish, base chakra? I found it interesting perhaps that Brigid's sacred flower is the dandelion which is killed by iron in horticulture. And Ireland has the highest rates of hemochromatosis genetics affecting 1/8 people... and her coat is blue I think, the eastern color of healing.
To me, the Tuatha de Danann sound like a faction of the ancient Anunnaki who came to Earth from their ailing planet, Nibiru to mine gold to repair their atmosphere. One group settled in Hibernia and brought high, even exotic technology to the early inhabitants. Look at the name 'Tuatha de Danann' and find the ruler of the Anunnaki, named "Anu" in the name. He's there.
Tomfarrar Talley Ahhhahahaha...ya drank that old fraudster Stitchen's fizzy drink, ya poor lost lamb.
Couldn't have said it better myself.
So much of what you said rings true in our world as well. There in much hope in the new Aquarian Age ... many changes and installation of the feminine energy for all genders. Thank you for all you do .. your live readings have really helped me get mthrough some dark days. Looking forward to the new changes as the heavy resistence is no more. Time to shine!
I love your car chats.
The Dannan are one & the same as the Dannan of the Iliad (Dannawasa in Egypian/Hittie), what the Achaean Greeks
called Pelagsian/Pelagoi. Parthalon/Path Lugh the Gate or path of Lugh, the 'way of Lugh' (Ludgate in London) Please refer to R.Graves The White Goddess. The Greek myths, it seems are not so Greek. The Irish use to say they were from Greece? One has only to look at the Myths of the Irish & Welsh to see the links between the refuges from Argos/Crete, look at ancient art work of Crete & compare to 'New Grange' I'm quite happy to send material that relates to your interests in this field. & Yes! the myths of Ireland are still pertinent to what is occurring now.Balor/Bress & 'Balor's tax collectors were routed & he was one of Titans! So those soulless Twats in suits have no chance! They are empty people, who think they can fill the void within them with more empty things, they are nothing without 'things'. Like a water bag with a hole in it. & they keep pouring more water into it, instead of noticing the hole to repair. To survive, a myth must function in the real world. A kind of 'Swiss army penknife' that helps to deal with new & unknown situations. Myths function on the edge of what is know, & what can & should be?
Jamie O'Callaghan You're exactly right. Their culture goes to pre-Thracian culture along the Danube /Duna river. They went south to Sumeria and Egypt. Odin and the Danish are also descendants. The star Deneb and the goddess Danu, Anuna, Anunakki
Jamie O'Callaghan Watch the tragedy of the sons of Tuirean. It tells the whole story. You're the first person who sees what I see.
Jamie do you know of any good sources (books, websites etc..) to research the dannan
Rachael Cassidy I highly recommend James MacKillop's Oxford Encyclopedia of Celtic Mythology, as well as Daithi O hOgáin's encyclopedia. There's lots of material online too.
I've been looking for more information about the Tuatha de Danann. Could you suggest a good source or tell me the names of the texts which mention them?
Some good books include MacKillop's Encyclopedia of Celtic Mythology, Daithí Ó hÓgáin's encyclopedia 'The Lore of Ireland', and the works of Thomas Rolleston (1911) and Charles Squire, which can be found as cheap reprints online.
What part of Spain did the Milesians come from?
Lets hope the young Irish that come here, do not forget where they came from!
(this is to go under my previous comment,,..ran out of space)
surely loosing faith in all establishments of ireland is us currently "being in the dark"
It might be, but that's a good place to start looking for the light. I think about the metaphor of being in Newgrange on the longest night, alone, before the coming of the fabulous dawn.
Caithimid dul siar chun teacht aniar... :)
good luck
I want to go home... to return to my origins
Is that in Ireland?
Old school slave trade is what I read from the old stories...
