A guide to magical, uplifting and supernatural sites, where one can access the ancient spiritual heritage of Ireland and participate in her ever-luminous Other-world continuum.

by Alanna Moore November 2023.

What is the nature of the Other-dimensional world of fairyland? Since ancient times, seers have described the parallel world of nature spirits and deities. Peeling away the biased accounts of medieval monks, one finds archaic fragments of mythos of the Other, also in children’s stories. Best of all, we can encounter their presences at many locations around the magical island of Ireland.

Alanna Moore’s tenth and latest book, this is a guide to many of Ireland’s magical, uplifting and supernatural sites and it’s richly illustrated in full colour. Included are some of the author’s fairy experiences, such as at the source of the Shannon River; seven years of observing and interacting with fairy queens and other land spirits in County Leitrim; journeying with Cow goddess Boinn and dancing with the Daghda god in County Sligo. Alanna Moore, a professional geomancer, divining the subtle energies and spirits of place, has 40 years experience of the Other.
