Testimonials from
fellow travelers
JP Timell writes ...
On the trip I took with Finbarr, I wasn't seeking a spiritual experience per se, rather the opportunity to feel and connect with the shakti of places that had been important to humanity for thousands of years. Yet, I received much more than that. The trip righted me, or set me to rights, after having been run a bit off course by the stresses of living in the modern world. I was so happy I went. Finbarr is an alchemist in that he has sought out some of the most profound energies on the planet and, in leading you there, he enables your transmutation into something more refined and purified than you were before the journey. His trips both deepen you and refresh you. Patricia C. of NY writes ...
"When one travels on a spiritual journey, one usually gets what is advertised in the brochure. With Finbarr Ross at Celtic Mystical Journeys gives much more than is expected. Because he knows the land upon which he travels so well, he takes groups to the less traveled, non-tourist sights where the pilgrim can feel the presence of Spirit in quiet. There are daily mediations, ceremonies or rituals in important sites. We did toning on the beach, meditation on the top of mountains, and full moon ceremony at a religious site. One feels safe with Finbarr both spiritually and physically. On a Finbarr trip one needs just focus on connecting with Spirit and having fun. I have been on two of Finbarr's journies and can't wait to go again. In the world of spiritual travel, Celtic Mystical Journeys is a good thing."
Laura S. of FL writes ...
"Dear Finbarr, The trip that you arranged for me and my friends was totally delightful. It was full of whimsy, was informative and while jam-packed, it was always at a relaxed pace. The selected gardens and towns were lovely and the hotels and meals were DELISH!!!!!. Your attention to detail and your obvious experience made our trip to Ireland a magical experience. Bravo!!!! Sincerely, Laura S." |

The Temple of Hathor for the October 10, 2010 (10/10/10) Astrological Alignment!
 This is what astrologers are saying:
"The
10th of October is a
very highly aspected day astrologically, with a
heliocentric triangle formation of Saturn (the father figure, ancient wisdom) -
Mars (the vibrant male driving energy) - Venus (the beautiful feminine
attraction energy) at it's maximum power. Triangles are one of the special
formations that contributes very high energy to themes associated
with the combined energies. The
Venus-Mars aspect is a trine, which historically has been interpreted as an
easy, benefic aspect. Then
to top it all off, Vesta (the asteroid representing the Virgin Godess of the Home and Hearth completes a
kite formation with this triangle, and becomes central in the formation. Vesta is also associated with the sacred
flame (which burned at her hearth and temples.)
"Heliocentrically
the Jupiter-Uranus conjunction (epiphanies, creative mental force at its best)
is still in orb and then Mercury is in opposition to the Jupiter-Uranus
conjunction creating a conduit for us to receive inspirational new thought at
the (heliocentric) soulvibrational level.
"Geocentrically,
the moon forms a trine with Jupiter-Uranus, bringing in the other feminine
energy (the Moon representing our subconscious and emotional nature) with the
hint again of inspiration from Jupiter-Uranus conjunction. Secondly, geocentrically, Venus and Mars are still in orb of a conjunction and
have just been triggered by the moon. Venus-Mars-Moon
conjoining could certainly be interpreted as being symbolic of the sacred
union. How interesting that
the female and male planetary archtypes are conjoining that day..."
On this day we will be visiting the Temple of Hathor, Goddess of Beauty, Love, Music & Astrology. She is the Divine Mother.
We will hold a special ceremony, with the intention of Sacred Union, joining the sacred feminine and masculine energies.
