The first of July is dedicated in Druidic culture to Oengus Og, the son of the Dagda and Boann. He is the Irish God of Love, around whose head four birds forever fluttered, representing his kisses. He himself fell in love with Caer Ibormeith, who appeared to him in a dream, and his long pursuit of her became the epitomy of all lover's quests. He was the foster father of Diarmuid O'Duibhne, lover of Grainne and transported his body to Brug na Boyne, Newgrange, afterhis death where he was able to breathe his soul back into his body.
