    The Morrigan is the only Celtic goddess I know. So I understand that she is the Crow goddess and also a crone a young girl and a maiden all in one. Right?

    Yes, the maiden, the mother and the crone! I know a little about Morrigan. I remember that she was considered a war deity. She often flew as a crow above the battlefield and I think foreshadowed a generals violent death. One of her other forms was a cow and I think this also linked her as a fertility deity.

    mhhm yes she was. Oh and if you read Nicholas Flamel she's in there

    I talk of The Morrigan on the thread: The Morrigan is confusing. It is a few threads down on this forum.
    I even included a photo of my statue of her.

    Well, I definitely find the Morrigan confusing.


    Other Celtic goddesses I have heard of are Skatha and Arianrhod, and they certainly are interesting, with one thing in common. Is Morgan Le Faye a goddess? I have never been sure on that one.
