“Sacred space is not just an external place. It is an internal place as well.”

In my opinion, the Four Treasures of the Tuatha Dé Danann are the markers for the four quarters of the world. The North of the world itself is actually its center. This is because the North Pole (as well as the South Pole) points at the one place in the visible sky that does not move. This is the Pole Star, the symbol of the world column that connects the Land to the Sky and the Sea. . The pathway between the centers of the Three Worlds is also at the center (one above, one herein and one below…for starters). The Four Treasures stand around this center. When we stand within the center of our ritual world, the four treasures should surround us just as every other part of the world surrounds us. The Three Worlds represent three separate worlds. Each of then also has a center that connects one to another.
