- A mystical pilgrimage title in the Celtic / folkloric vein: crossing into Faerie, into the Otherworld, into a land that is physically adjacent to this one but ontologically separate. Continues a thread that runs through "In a Beautiful Place out in the Country" and the Hexagon Sun / pastoral / Music70 aesthetic.
- "Magic" here ties to "Acts Of Magic": the album's twin magical titles, one as practice, one as destination.
- May also read as the land of the dead (Annwn in Welsh, Tír na nÓg in Irish, Hades in Greek, Sheol in Hebrew) — the other country into which the album descends.
