Danu

Mother Earth

THE GREAT MOTHER DANU OF IRELAND AND THE TUATHA DE DANAAN The Goddess Danu was the mother Goddess of the Tuatha DE Danann. She is particularly associated with the province of Munster with its fertile soil and was known as Anu in those parts. The Tuatha De Danann were all descended from her. Danu was known to be a lovely slender woman with an upturned nose, deathly pale face, lips as red as rowan berries, eyes of startling blue, and long fair hair. Able to transform into a sow, mare, bitch, vixen, she-ass, weasel, serpent, owl, she-wolf, tigress, mermaid, or loathsome hag, she would later be called Danae, Don, Dana, and her finale Greek manifestation, Eurynome.

Eriu

Eriu, as one of the original Goddesses in the long distant times of Ireland's past, along with her two sisters, gave her name to Ireland. They were the incarnation of Ireland, represented as the Sovereignty of Ireland; they wedded kings to ensure the prosperity of the Isle. With the arrival of the conquering Milesians from Anatolia (Turkey), legend says that Eriu was killed. Her name, however, lives on in the country's name

Ériu was one of the queens of Ireland at the time of the Milesian invasion. She made a deal with the poet Amairgin that her name would be remembered as the principle name for Ireland.

Caillech
HecateOF
Dividers,Green dividers
Caillech - (CALL-yach or KEE-lek) goddess known as the Veiled One; teacher of the arts of war and viewed as a Destroyer aspect of the Goddess.
Cailleach Beara
Crone Aspect of the Great Goddess, Creator of Storms :: Goddess of Sovereignty
The Cailleach Beara is one of the oldest living mythological beings associated with Ireland. The Cailleach Beara is usually associated with Munster in particular Kerry and Cork.
The Cailleach (KAL-y-ach) is the Ancient Earth herself. She is the lichen-covered rocks and the mountain peaks. She is the bare earth covered with snow and frost. She is the Deep Ancestress, veiled by the passage of time. She is the Death Goddess, who lets die what is no longer needed. But in the debris of the passing year, she also finds the gems, the seeds for the next season. She is the guardian of the seed, the keeper of the essential life force. She holds the very essence of power

There is now a place to chat much like IM. I hope you will have fun with that.
I have also worked the home page a bit, so when you add music it will be featured on the play list there along with every one else's.
This is your place to learn and help others to grow, don't be shy, ask questions, and share your knowledge in the forums.
Thanks for joining the sight.
In the Name of All that IS, Danu.

""Mabon Autumn Equinox, 2nd Harvest, September 21st

Mabon, (pronounced MAY-bun, MAY-bone, MAH-boon, or MAH-bawn) is the Autumn Equinox. The Autumn Equinox divides the day and night equally, and we all take a moment to pay our respects to the impending dark. We also give thanks to the waning sunlight, as we store our harvest of this year's crops. The Druids call this celebration, Mea'n Fo'mhair, and honor the The Green Man, the God of the Forest, by offering libations to trees. Offerings of ciders, wines, herbs and fertilizer are appropriate at this time. Wiccans celebrate the aging Goddess as she passes from Mother to Crone, and her consort the God as he prepares for death and re-birth.

Various other names for this Lesser Wiccan Sabbat are The Second Harvest Festival, Wine Harvest, Feast of Avalon, Equinozio di Autunno (Strega), Alben Elfed (Caledonii), or Cornucopia. The Teutonic name, Winter Finding, spans a period of time from the Sabbat to Oct. 15th, Winter's Night, which is the Norse New Year.

At this festival it is appropriate to wear all of your finery and dine and celebrate in a lavish setting. It is the drawing to and of family as we prepare for the winding down of the year at Samhain. It is a time to finish old business as we ready for a period of rest, relaxation, and reflection.

Symbolism of Mabon:
Second Harvest, the Mysteries, Equality and Balance.

Symbols of Mabon:
wine, gourds, pine cones, acorns, grains, corn, apples, pomegranates, vines such as ivy, dried seeds, and horns of plenty.

Herbs of Maybon:
Acorn, benzoin, ferns, grains, honeysuckle, marigold, milkweed, myrrh, passionflower, rose, sage, solomon's seal, tobacco, thistle, and vegetables.

Foods of Mabon:
Breads, nuts, apples, pomegranates, and vegetables such as potatoes, carrots, and onions.

Incense of Mabon:
Autumn Blend-benzoin, myrrh, and sage.

Colors of Mabon:
Red, orange, russet, maroon, brown, and gold.

Stones of Mabon:
Sapphire, lapis lazuli, and yellow agates.

Activities of Mabon:
Making wine, gathering dried herbs, plants, seeds and seed pods, walking in the woods, scattering offerings in harvested fields, offering libations to trees, adorning burial sites with leaves, acorns, and pine cones to honor those who have passed over.

Spellworkings of Mabon:
Protection, prosperity, security, and self-confidence. Also those of harmony and balance.

Deities of Mabon:
Goddesses-Modron, Morgan, Epona, Persephone, Pamona and the Muses. Gods-Mabon, Thoth, Thor, Hermes, and The Green Man.

Mabon is considered a time of the Mysteries. It is a time to honor Aging Deities and the Spirit World. Considered a time of balance, it is when we stop and relax and enjoy the fruits of our personal harvests, whether they be from toiling in our gardens, working at our jobs, raising our families, or just coping with the hussle-bussle of everyday life. May your Mabon be memorable, and your hearts and spirits be filled to overflowing!""
