The rabbit or hare was one of the many
animals that could lead you to other worlds. This
is where Lewis Carrol got his idea of Alice
following the white rabbit to Wonderland. The colour,
too, was significant. All white creatures were
sacred to the moon goddess, and whiteness was the
emblem of otherworldly animals. According to
Pliny there was a taboo against eating hare meat,
a sure sign of cult significance. To this day in
Kerry, they believe that eating a hare is like
eating your grandmother. This is a typical
totemic taboo.
