The Crane Bag
The magical bag containing sacred treasures visible only at high tide.
Manannán's crane bag, made from the skin of a transformed woman, contained treasures that appeared only at high tide and vanished at ebb. This represents the Celtic understanding that magical power waxes and wanes with cosmic cycles.
The treasures reveal themselves when the tide is high; patience brings power.
The crane bag symbolizes how magical power follows natural cycles.
