Right,
although I’ve no personal experience myself, I’ve heard it called Taibhsearachd, and some say its sign is the salmon, which was used as a mark of decent.
They claim in different fashions, it affects only certain people, in particular families or lines, as a form of perception, I suppose. I’m just wondering if the Pythia at Delphi was a similar tradition? Then on the other hand, the pronouncements were often so intentionally cryptic. Yet with the Taibhsearachd, it’s said the perception is visual, thus some odd detail about an article of dress is often included. I for one don’t believe it such nonsense, unless there is a rational explaination. However, I've sure seen some strange things and as the bard is want to say, ‘there are more things in heaven and earth, than are dreamt of in our philosophy.’
Hope thats not at all too cryptic?
