1. Neu-Kelte 🌻💙💛🌻#FolkloreThursday #Celtic: Among the talismans #Lugh demanded from Tuireann's three sons as
punishment for the murder of his father #Cian were three apples (according to the tale, from the Hesperides Garden in the East of the World). `Only these apples will satisfy me, as they are the best and most beautiful in the world. This is what they are made of: Their colour is that of polished gold, and the head of a one-month-old child is no larger than any one of these apples. When you dine on them, they taste like honey, and bleeding wounds and the most malignant diseases disappear. The apples do not diminish when eaten, even if one eats from them for a long time and constantly. Whoever succeeds in taking one of these apples has accomplished his greatest feat, since he will never lose it again.`
