The power of the wishing well is based on Irish culture histories. Dating from pre-Christian times, these Irish holy wells were blessed after St. Patrick evangelized the island of Ireland. Many of these wells were later associated with saints, the most common being Patrick, Brigid of Kildare, and Ann, the mother of Mary. [23]
These wells were not wells in which money was thrown in and wishes made. Instead they were wells where the water was believed to have healing powers and that the Saints would use to bless others and perform miracles. The visions Ruby receives from the well serve the same purpose: blessing others and allowing miracles to occur.
