#MythologyMonday #Celtic: `There are many references to the stars in Irish mythology. The galaxy we know as the Milky Way was known in Irish mythology as Bealach an Bó Finne, which means ‘the way of the white cow’, and its shape in the sky was thought to be mirrored on earth by the route of the River Boyne. In Ptolemy’s book, Geographia, written during his life c. AD100-170, the River Boyne is referred to as Bubindas, from the proto-Celtic Bou-vinda, meaning ‘white cow’.`Source: Ali Isaac (substack.com)Here`s more on this: https://hear-me.social/@NeuKelte/116516256477520980

The Navajo's old Black God was slowly making the lights in the night's sky. Coyote became impatient, throwing the bag of stars, making the Milky Way. Black God did not illuminate them all: some stars are bright, some dim, and some sections of night have no stars. #MythologyMonday
