Description
Celtic skull symbolic meaning deals with some very deep themes. Stuff like transience, power, spirit and portals of new understanding. There are a lot of reasons the skull was a pervasive and powerful symbol to the ancient Celts.
Celtic culture viewed the head or skull to be the seat of power. Some texts point to the skull as the house of the soul.
Archeological findings show us the Celts tossed skulls into sacred wells as offerings.
We can look to the symbolism of water, and know it carries meanings of cleansing, purification and fluidity of motion (emotions are also a water symbol). Then, if skulls symbolize the seat of the soul and power, perhaps hurling them into the dark depths of sacred well water indicates an intent to cleanse the soul or offer divine clarity and renewal for the soul.

The Truth Skull: You may be wondering why this is on my site. Well it is a long story, but the short version is, I purchased the skull for the Celtic knots showing on the outside to understand more about the Irish - Druid history for a project I was working on for a New York bar. Post the job, what do you do with such a thing. So to my surprise I placed the skull up for sale and was called. At first I hoped the person wanted to buy it, but then I found out they wanted me to sell it at the Detroit Pawn Shop - American Jewelry and Loan for an upcoming filming of Hard Core Pawn. The episode is in the cue to air so stay tuned in, and find out, did I sell the Truth Skull, or did it come home with me. "At the largest pawnshop in Detroit, every day brings new rewards — and new drama. "
