Callanais Standing Stones, Scotland, 2004.

Awen also from the Keltic, is the Holy Awen, an often fleeting, inspirational, mystical gift of knowledge and understanding that comes unbidden from the hands of the Gods.

Emma Oliver, Mundaring, 1998.

Together, Caer-Awen signals a binary opposition, the place that balances, between light and dark, two ends of a continuum, the space and time conjunction where all exists as one.

 "Awen: (usually, Holy or Sacred Awen) lit., the Muse or sacred poetic gift of inspiration; as used by the bards, the personified creative spirit.
