Handfasting⠀ ⠀ The phrase, "tying the knot", comes from ancient Northern European (Celtic/Nordic) tradition and culture - it was part of one of several wedding traditions in the ancient society.⠀ ⠀ In Celtic Druid times, when a man and woman chose to be married, they were brought together in a ceremony to have a braided cord tied around their hands. This ritual was known as handfasting. #Celts #Druids #Marriage #Handfasting #celtic #Druidism #Druidry #Tyingtheknot⠀
