Understanding Galadriel In Lord Of The Rings And The Silmarillion

Join me to look deeper into Galadriel's history told about in the Silmarillion by Tolkien to understand her motivations, gifts, and abilities that we see later on in Lord of The Rings and even in the extended Hobbit movies.
Who really was Galadriel of Tolkien's world? Find out and come to discuss all about her with me.

I tried to give the highlights about Galadriel, but let me know below if you have other questions and I will try to answer them if I can!
"May it be a light to you in dark places, when all other lights go out." ~ Galadriel

The painting of Lothlorien reminds me of some of the solarpunk artwork. Great talk about Galadriel! I learned a lot!

I really enjoyed this chat. I am being reminded more and more to read the books as I am finding the characters to be much more fascinating and multidimensional. I felt a resonance with Galadriel before from the films but after your video I am liking the character even more so. And I REALLY enjoyed hearing how she learned from others pre-third age and was more of a "host" and a creator of her realm whom others chose to support and learn from rather than a queen in the traditional sense. I feel like many so called starseeds or lightworkers could relate to her story. Thank you so much, I apologize for the lengthy response.

This was absolutely brilliant! I've always seen Galadriel as a priestess 🧝‍♀️💚

I find it incredibly sad that she's the last one of her family left in the end... except for maybe ever elusive half-cousin Maglor who may still be wandering the coasts.
I mean she first had to leave behind her parents, then her brothers died in pretty quick succession, her niece died, all her cousins and uncle... and sure she has her husband and daughter (who also dies!) and Elrond who's her son-in-law and somewhat distant cousin... but it still must've been really hard for her. She must feel really lonely in being the last princess of the Noldor still in Middle-earth
