The June 2016 MyIrelandBox included the following items:

~Sun Dancing A Medieval Vision by Geoffrey Moorhouse ($14.58): From Amazon: “Visible on a clear day off the west coast of Ireland, the Skellig Islands, a cluster of cruel rocks, rise spectacularly from the Atlantic Ocean. A sanctuary to birds and seals today, for over six hundred years during the middle ages it was a center for a particularly intense form of monastic life, one that acclaimed writer Geoffrey Moorhouse explores with utmost fascination, scholarship, and imagination in Sun Dancing. A must read for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of Celtic spirituality, Moorhouse’s lively narrative is a superbly imagined account of the monks’ isolated life-the spiritual struggles and triumphs and unbelievable physical hardships. To complement and enrich the book, Moorhouse establishes the historical context of Irish monasticism and describes the monks’ influence and undeniable role in preserving western civilization, as well as unexpected connections between medieval Ireland and India, Egypt, and Byzantium, and the surviving impact of pagan mythology. An entertaining and enlightening work, Sun Dancing makes medieval Ireland come alive.” I have a few books ahead of this one in line, but I am going to try and read this over the summer.  It sounds interesting like something I would never pick up on my own.

~Skelligs Jewelry – County Kerry ($75): Skelligs Jewellery is inspired by the natural beauty of the spectacular Atlantic Coast of Ireland.  This piece is just gorgeous.  It’s delicate, but still kind of “tough”.  Just really really pretty. It’s designed to remind you to always have strength, be magnificent and be a force of nature.
