The Morrigan — Ireland's Most Dangerous Goddess

Описание: The Morrigan — Ireland's Most Dangerous Goddess

You’ve probably heard of Morgana, the sorceress of Arthurian legend.
But in Ireland’s oldest tales, there was a force they feared long before Arthur.

The Morrigan wasn’t just a war goddess.
She was an omen. A challenger. A decision.

In this episode, we follow her through the ancient stories where she moves beside Cú Chulainn—first as a woman on the road, then as beasts that try to break his fate, and finally as the crow that marks the moment his legend ends.

We also uncover her deeper role at Samhain, her union with the Dagda, and how she shapes victory and terror in the battles of Mag Tuired.

This is not fantasy.
This is the Morrigan as the old world remembered her.
