'Orkahaugr'

More ancient ritual breaking out of the past and whispering to us in the modern world. Orka (Icelandic : Great, powerful) Haugr (Norse : Tomb ). The old pre-Christian ways of these Islands are amazingly colourful. Unfortunately, due to millennia of propaganda they are seen as somehow evil and dangerous; they aren’t .

On those Northern Islands we have a tomb for kings, positioned with precision to channel the Solstice sunrise, so as to fill the chamber with ethereal light, reflecting and rebounding from the minerals in the rock. That is a glorious and awe inspiring thing!
