The Next Event Launches In September

Right. These stones are connected to druid culture and were hung are the neck for magical protection, particularly malevolent witchcraft.

They were also tied to the key of stable doors to protect horses, or on the end of beds for protection against witches and demons such as the Night Hag.

They have a number of names including ‘Druid’s Glass’, ‘Gloine nan druidh’ (Scottish Gaelic), ‘Hag stones’, ‘Witch stones’ and ‘Adder stones’. In the druidic tradition the stone is formed from the hardened mass of writhing snakes.

It is held that by looking through the hole in the middle, in addition removing the glamour of a witch or fairy, can align oneself to the non-material world, even provide the ability to see through to the faerie realm.

There are strong similarities here with Samhain’s ‘Crossing The Black Path’.

Hag stones also feature here as one of 13 pieces of folklore, any of which could relate to the Secret World.
