| One of the most active and empowering example of the Sovereigh Goddess in all of Celtic Literature. Supreme Warrior Witch, but also a Protector, Chalenger, and Energizer... Confident, Self-assuredness, Preparedness, Positioning Awareness not only on the Battlefield but in every aspect of life. The Begining of any Journey, and shows us how to restore usefulness and action to the magical strengths we process, But undervalue in ourselves.... Always depicted fully armed with a spear in each hand... Systers, Macha & Badbh, often shape-shifts into a black crow on the battlefield. Her cry is both fierce and irresistible and is said to have been as loud and formidable as the cries of ten thousand worriors. In Celtic Myth the cry of the Dragon is a terrifying shriek in dicating waste or neglect at the hands of unworthy kings... The Dragon is another Celtic Symbol of the Goddess... When the Dragon Cries, it is not so much a plaintive weeping as it is a hideous scream from unbearable pain of betrayal.... The MORRIGHAN prossesses a similar sensitivity. She has the ability to protect and nurture, but, like the Dragon, reject her or betray her and she is impossible to soothe. She is the QUEEN OF AVALON or APPLE LAND ruler of the ISLE OF WOMAN... Avalon is a Magical Paradise where Kings and Heroes go to learn from the Sovereign Goddess what is important in life... The APPLE, instead of being the forbidded fruit of christian literature, was originally a Witch symbol of knowledge and rejuvenation. The story of her encounter with the Dagda, one of her many lovers, and how she uses her magic to champion his cause.... The MORRIGHAN and the Dagda's rituel union takes place every Samhain Eve (or Halloween)... It marked the begining of the Celtic New Year..... THE WITCH IN EVERY WOMAN Reawakening the magical nature of the feminine to heal, protect, create, and empower. Laurie Cabot & Jean Mills |
