🕑 Added 2024-03-17 05:02:08 +0000 UTC Kiss me, I’m Irish! ☘️💋 This catchphrase actually originates from the legend of the Blarney Stone, which is thought to give “flattery sweetened with humor and flavoured by wit” should you kiss it. The slab of limestone was placed into Blarney Castle in the mid 1400s, a few miles outside of Cork, Ireland. Its part of a machination, or an opening high up in the battlement of the castle, meant as a means to attack enemies by dropping boiling water, stones or sand out of it. There’s a lot of lore around why this particular stone is legendary, but the earliest and most common is the tale of the builder of the castle, entangled in a 15-century lawsuit, appealed to the goddess Clíodhna from Irish mythology. She instructed him to kiss the stone of his castle when he awoke the next morning and in doing so, she gifted him the ability to eloquently argue (and win) his case. He took the stone and moved it to a place in the castle where no one could take it from him. The tradition to kiss the Blarney Stone requires you to ascend the castle, lay on your back, and dangle out above the castle to reach it. Until iron wrought bars were installed, this required considerable risk since the only thing preventing you from falling was the person holding into your ankles. It is far easier, they say, to just kiss an Irish person. Happy St. Patrick’s Day! 🇮🇪
