Four Knocks was located about ten miles southeast of Newgrange between the Naul in County Dublin and Ardcath in County Meath. There were three Megalithic Passage Chambers in the area; but, only one has been opened. The remaining two were enveloped with a thick covering of grass and furze bushes. In the main Sacred Mound Passage Chamber a short passage lead to a wide pear shaped chamber with three smaller recess chambers. There was a three feet high engraved stone inside of the entrance from the Neolithic Period that has become known as the Face Stone since people visiting the mound thought that it resembled a modern day smiling Happy Face. Three was a holy number for the Celts of Ireland and the Celtic Ancient Culture which had many different meanings beside the most traditional of the representations, that of the three realms of Land, Sea, and Sky. Triplication or the power of a group of three was a significant symbolic pattern or design that recurred in Irish Celtic art, mythology, and spirituality. There were the Three Kindreds (ancestors, fairies, goddesses and gods). Storytellers told tales of goddesses and Otherworld Beings appearing at critical life passage moments in groups of three.
Triple faced; triple
headed Celtic deities were venerated in various forms with the most popular
being the triplicity of the mother goddess energy. Sometimes the three goddesses
depicted were identical; while, at other times their overall potency was
heightened by showing three different aspects of the divine feminine role.
Even though the Sacred Mound Passage Chambers were originally designed for another purpose, like most of the Sacred Mounds dotting the landscape, they were converted into burial cairns for the remains of adults and children. Personal ornaments like beads and pendants; as well as, decorated pottery and vessels have been found there during archaeological excavations that were relocated to the Irish Nation Museum. Sacred Mounds shaped like a large female breast, graced the Druidic Celtic landscape, bringing the benevolent motherly blessings of the Divine Feminine into outward expression, grounding the goodness of caring kindness and nurturing giving into manifestation for the people of the Earth. The Celts were the original global Mound Builders. Over the passage of time, the oral traditions surrounding the megalithic sacred mounds like Four Knocks became shrouded in the Irish mythos and mystical mysteries of fairy mounds and the sidhe.
The passage tombs like
Four Knocks were light matrix healing and acceleration temples where the Tuatha
dé Danann (who were sixth dimensional Lemurian Pleiadian Shamans who originally
made their home world in this solar system on the planet now known as Mars
before it became uninhabitable) assisted the peoples of this planet, especially
those who used to make their home world the planet (its remnants are now called
the Asteroid Belt) after their planet was destroyed up by usurpers from
another galaxy... Continue on
