Otherworld

Mary Murphy gives us an excellent overview of the Otherworld. In Gaelic and Brittonic mythology it is usually described as a supernatural realm of everlasting youth, beauty, health, abundance and joy The Otherworld is similar to the parallel universe, usually elusive, but various mythical heroes visit it either through chance or after being invited by one of its residents. They often reach it by entering ancient burial mounds or caves, or by going under water or across the western sea.Source of wording: WikipediaFrom our Samhain lore playlist: https://audioboom.com/playlists/4634161-samhain-lore#Samhain #Halloween #Otherworld #Supernatural #Paralleluniverse © 2021-2022 Racontour Productions.
