My hair has also gone curly since I started working deeply with the Morrigan and the spirits around my home. It was straight as a board before that.
Intense, Kaoime. But I know you have been working really hard...
Fascinating. When I did a small group meditation on the Merlin I saw the Morrigan and she had curly hair!
And me! Oh Goddess it was so beautiful long thick straight and flowing, and it seems if I straighten it she will switch off my straighteners and it seems to get more so 😂
Folks are willing to spend more on baubles than classes because for a lot of them it's all about posturing, and it's easier to posture with material goods than with knowledge.
Truth
If I had the money I would rather take the classes. You learn something and get to meet new people. material goods can not give you that.
There is another thing, you believe that stuff don’t go away whilst you can easily forget a lesson unless you have it written down or recorded somehow.
Enter the aesthetic movement🤣👌🏻 lately it seems like you have to dress like a fortune teller to qualify as one.
I’d rather take the classes, especially from those that have put the time and energy into it, and come from the lands of the ancestors. As soon as I recover from the state we’re in here in the states. I’ll be signing up. My great grandad was a full blooded Irish man. His parents owned an uppers scale Irish restaurant in Liverpool Ohio. My uncle’s kept a lot of Irish things in their home and Ireland in their heart. One of them went to Galway. What I wouldn’t give to walk on the lands of Ireland and Scotland. It’s always been deep within my heart as well. I always keep brighids cross above my living room window, and all the other symbols on my wall. I’ve researched all the places from where my family resided both the Campbell’s. Who migrated to Ireland before America, and the Curran side. So beautiful, and it calls to my heart ever so strongly. One day I’ll be able to cross the sea, and put my bare feet on the soil of Ireland. For now I keep as much of it in my home as possible, a projection of what’s in my heart. I can’t wait to to start the classes though and will be signing up as soon as I can.
I cannot state how much i love all of your talks. I wish that i had had a resource like this twenty years ago. Thank you for your service to the community. I hope everyone decides to watch and learn.
Morgan and Lora tell it straight. I was brought up with the old tales and the respect for the good folk, the knowledge was in these words but it's got mad with the wealth of misinformation out on the internet.
I’ve had similar experiences, when the morrigan came to me, and I accepted. It put me on a 6 year dark night of the soul journey. Where I was working with the Norse ancestor Hel and angraboda to face my childhood trauma dead on, and years before then when I first started my path. I was learning or remembering the fae elemental land spirits. My very first teacher was teaching me not to judge a book by its cover. That some spirits look harrowing, but are actually working for the highest best of humanity, and that opened the door right open. To actually learn a very valuable lesson on discernment. As a ram woman came to me, and at that time there was fae all around me so I’m thinking she was another fae. Which is true but she was on the more darker or heavier chaotic spectrum, and I had many physical manifestations from that experience. Like objects flying off my stereo, and when my teacher figured out what was going on. It took three of us witches and the archangels of the four directions to remove this attachment from me, and during the banishment. My teacher’s phone kept ringing, and her cd tower was thrown down to the ground with great force. The ram woman wasn’t with me long, and I don’t even want to entertain the thought of how much worse it could have gotten. If she had not figured it out as soon as it came. I learned them it wasn’t all rainbows and butterflies. Morrigan has just came to me a few weeks ago and I answered the call, even with the huge battle ground I had found myself on. As through that battle, I was able to reclaim my personal power, I became more whole. Is she hard, absolutely, and at first I was nervous from the first time around, but and however. She’s of truth, justice, and sovereignty those are my passions. So I love her, but I also have a very healthy respect of her as well. As for the ram women I have always wondered who, what, and where did she come from. My teacher called her an elemental demon, but it was just three months ago that something came across my path about the fae, and I asked the ancestors what was that all about with that ram woman anyhow. Two days later I was watching a paranormal show in Scotland, and I forget the name of this entity, but she’s well known in Scotland apparently. Which for me makes sense. My roots are deep in Scotland. I’m 47% British 37% Scottish, my maiden name is Campbell lol. So is it cause I’m Scottish that this entity came to me, I think it’s more then that, I felt like I knew this entity from before, and that I had a lesson to learn something valuable for my path. Nothing is ever just dark or just light. It’s many different shades of chaos and order, static or clear.
You guys are sure the best, most informative, straight forward and truthful guides/teachers I have ever encountered. You are giving out what people really need to know not the usual fluffy bunny, what you called toxic positivity that the rest of them do. More power to you.
I’m an American and briefly fell in with ADF and this talk helps validate my intuition yelling at me as soon as I got ‘in’ and was able to read their beliefs. Tysm
In an era of Star Wars, and other Hollywood-disguised "fantasy", it is very refreshing finding you both. I've always craved for the truth, the real, undigested... so, it is a pleasure to listen to you... I've had this "Love of Lore" all my life, and I feel honored to have access to this... I don't know where my affection to Ireland comes from, but I've long stopped questioning myself about that. The thing I'm doing now is just sinking things in, and let them permeate even the darkest places of me.
As you were saying the Fairy Queens might become Goddesses again, I noticed the sound got very crystal clear and louder. Also, all background nice stopped. I think they want their status back.
I really enjoyed this chat. It has the sense of respect that I'd like to approach the Morrigan with. I've only just signed up for your free classes and then bought the discounted bundle of classes as well. I'm riveted and appreciative.
I've only just learned that the elementals are waiting for me to engage with them. I also have serpent/dragon energy very strong within me and want to honor it along with my Irish heritage, which I am just learning about.
Apparently, I chose to be born away from Ireland this go-round but have ancestral soul ties to the homeland. I was bound in this lifetime for not sharing my powers and knowledge in another and it is becoming a reality in this incarnation that I used my powers not for good things in my past lives. Learning this was offensive to me, and I spoke to my guides that I want nothing to do with domination now. My suffering in this lifetime has been great and I've done a lot of healing work on myself, but I want to go deeper. I want to use my gifts for elevating humanity any way I can so we can ascend as a collective.
ANYWAY, I'm rambling.
My question is, are there any more than just that one story about Cora the Snake Goddess besides the horrific one where St Patrick kills her by cutting himself out of her belly? Thank you so much for keeping it real. Cheers!
Love your talks that you share with us. Thank you so much for the service you both provide. I appreciate it!
I love how this deconstructs almost formulaic texts and teachings that don’t ring true. Exactly why I’ve been bored in the occult section at Barnes and Noble forever. Thanks y’all for bringing the authenticity back. I’ve been reading both of your books and joined the FB group
Here’s a dynamic duo! Glad to have found this great conversation. Following both of you!
A big thank you for uploading this video. You both inspired my thoughts and help me so much.
While beginning, and “things got real”, I had a dark visitor.....yeah I quite practicing for a long time
you guys just jumped straight in no floaties lol love it!
Love the Labyrinth Hoggle reference example. It definitely fits the topic 😅.
I honestly agree that y'all should get paid for the knowledge and labor you provide.
I personally think knowledge is much more valuable both spiritually and monetary wise than props and such.
I understand why education and knowledge is said that it should be free to a point. However, when you all have to provide your time, labor, the work put into your classes, etc. That is worthy and valuable and should absolutely be compensated for. Pagan professional experts should absolutely be paid for the works, knowledge, and services provided/offered.
One day when I have the financial ability I definitely plan to buy more of yours, Lora's and Morgan's books, and hopefully take Lora's classes.
lol ... wow... please pay these nutters some of your welfare checks, how nice of you. For all the knowledge and such thats going to get you so far in life.
This was an incredibly helpful video concerning my relationships with deity and the fae. The dating metaphor is inspired, and puts me in a good mindset as I'm working with a new deity now. Thank you so much!
this is a truly wonderful guide to
elf and safety and covered plenty of ground
With two very sound guides
thank you Morgan and Laura
for your dedication and hard work..
Thanks Niall
I'm late to the party but after I became interested and started research I lost my keys for the first time in my life, they literally disappeared out of my pocket. After running around for an hour I consciously asked them to please help me find them and immediately found them shining in the sun. Like I had to acknowledge their power before I was allowed to learn more about them.
Me again. I have also found that Terry Pratchett spoke to me on that level. I am not surprised to find out about that background. I say to people he is my guru and tend to get a little annoyed when people only see him as a "children's author".
i spose im a children then. He took the fae quite seriously as well as the other ones.
Absolutely love these shared conversations, ladies of my own heart, I'm learning what I have been craving all my life. Thank you for helping me to make sense of so many things. Loving the books and the Irish pagan school to both of you, so many things from my past are starting to make sense. I'll continue to let my family believe I am just crazy and keep people at arms length 🤣😅😂 Thank you again. I look forward to the day we can talk in person x
Thank you both so much for this information! I have been drawn to paganism & witchcraft for a while now, but haven't found books before that addressed my very strong safety concerns that kept me from moving forward. Just ordered your book on Irish Witchcraft, Lora. Looking forward to reading it!
Love this and the work you do, have to say I agree the good neighbors can and do affect you physically. I had a particular woods area that was very active, I had a vision of and knowing there was iron in their glen and they wanted it out by my hands. I was with a group of people and told them this and so they stayed in one spot and I went directly in front of them. I found the old iron, it was heavy and awkward, once I picked it up I heard laughing and saw lights. This was during the day. They then moved me behind my friends who were looking for me for about an hour.
Caution is best in all relationships, it's always how useful you can be. Even if you don't realize how useful you can be. I also, trance when driving which can be an issue, because my job now is to drive deliveries. The Morrigan has had a few talks and take overs while driving.
I have noted since my initial working with her my hair has become feathered several mornings. Looks like wings and no matter the fix it doesn't work to smooth it out. It has now started to do ringlets.
Yes your path defines you physically as well, something most need to be aware of. If you tax yourself or go against their ideals, sometimes they intervene physically. You said it best when you said a great change is what causes this.
The late actor Christopher Lee gave some wonderfully insightful, frank and honest interviews across his long storied career on the subject of occultism, dark magick and negative workings with Gods. Some of these interviews can even be found on UA-cam.
At the beginning of the video and I’m so excited to watch the rest... but holy shit I’m so thankful for my Irish catholic nana who would tell me as a child that these spirits and beings are very much real and not to be messed with lightly. Looking back now I have always treated any deity/spirit/being from any religion with the upmost respect.
I love your channel and you both are helping me a lot!!!
Omfg the colab I didn’t know I wanted but needed. I found your channel today and you instantly reminded me of Morgan hahaha
Thinking the gods only doing benevolent things is related to spiritual bypass.
This video really help me. I have been very interested in paganism for two years but I haven't felt dedicated to any particular god yet. I thought something was wrong with me, but it's like what I tell my young gay friends who feel anxiety that they haven't found their life partner yet. You are young; you are still learning what you need. Date around and see before you settle." Hahah it works for me in my spiritual life. Thank you for that analogy.
It's like the Irish witch STIG meeting her north American witch STIG cousin, yer loved 🇮🇪
I had no idea Morgan wrote all the Pagan Portals books. I started with the Dagda, now I'll be checking out the rest of them
Thank you for calling out Toxic Positivity. I absolutely agree that it seems the alternative side of what could happen on this type of work is highly glossed over.
It’s a wee bit harder for those of us called to a path in the states, we’re not on our ancestral lands. We have spirit, the ancestors, the fae, but we’re not on our lands to learn from them or to talk to others who are on the lands and on a path to know the stories, authentic stories. So I’m greatful for your video’s, and I just got some books on the morrigans stories. So that I can innerstand better this time, and develop a healthy more informed relationship with the morrigan. Other then I know you’re here for a great purpose and so I accept 😂 this time around it was ok I know you’re here for a greater cause and I know this is going to test me, challenge me, and it’s going to be hard, and again with my sovereign voice I accept, and I’ve been wondering when the tower is going to come crashing down 😂 she says this time it won’t be as challenging that I’ve already done the grunt work 😂
When a Goddess challenges my limits or boundaries, I often feel grateful and open to exploring. When it gets too intense, she backs off or sits nearby and lets me figure it out. She may go away for a while because balance has been achieved.
The dark aspects of working with the Otherworld is much appreciated, too many angelic descriptions of the Sidhe out there.
Side note: Lol the analogy of the Badb pulling out the darkest, shiniest things out of your subconscious is gold! Happened to me last night while dreaming, I guess it was the ocean waves music that drew her in. Still grappling with the aftermath 🤯🌊
Thank you for putting out this content.
Really enjoyed this interview from you both and thank you for all you both bring.
Morgan I love your book on the The Morrigan. One of the first I read, and she is the deity I am preparing to dedicate myself to but and thoroughly researching first.
This was so good! Thank you!
American's do not flinch when asked to pay for education. Everyone has to eat. I pay for things I value. Never feel guilty for living off of your skills. I was a teacher before I retired. It was a pleasure. And I spent a great deal of money on my own, however, I needed my paycheck.
This was a very good listen for me because I really had an immense connection to Brigid, and was desperate to work with her. I am new to this world of witchcraft, so I didn't know what to expect. But now I just wear a Jade tree of life pendant in her honor and the occasional devotional candle. But the interesting thing is I lit my Danu devotional candle and the flame always gets huge.
There's a brighid interview more recently on this channel
Thank you both for such an honest and open discussion. The service you provide is amazing. I will keep your advice in mind as I continue on my path.
Thank you so so much!!!💜
Really enjoyed this. I have been wanting to dive more deeply into Irish lore as my family moved there for two years when I was young. My mother's grandmother, too, was Irish. My husband, who is from Nova Scotia, first introduced me to the Morrigan, who I want to look into more deeply now. Happy to have found you both!
This is all very interesting. It's odd for me as I'm coming from a christian back ground that was mixed with some paganism. My childhood was complicated. I have had very powerful experiences with in my christian faith while utilizing similar approaches to god as I've heard described here. The third eye concept is very real. I'm not entirely sure what to make of it all. I agree the vast majority of mainstream religions have lost touch with the spiritual realm and how to approach it. Paganism has something very special in being able to recognize and tap into the spiritual realm. It's very subtle but also very very powerful. Good luck on your journey's friends.
As always, highly informative and refreshingly honest. Gave me a few "a-ha!" moments about some past experiences.
Loved this talk and so true about the pagan community here in the states. Hoping it gets better and isn’t going to stay a flavor of the month or year.
🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯 I cant believe what a gold mine I found.
Love these interviews!!!! You both are amazing and I appreciate your work!
Thank You!
This is my second (maybe third...) Time listening to this, And I swear I pick up more info each time. And I am able to reflect my own experiences, and really understand what's been going on, and what I can expect. I'm grateful that you guys keep these videos up. I also just purchased a couple courses from the school... Took me long enough, right? 😁 But thank you for all that you lovely people do.
I just realized that since I found the IPS and really committed to learning more about Ireland, my ancestors, and the Irish God's that my chronic pain has gotten worse and I am exhausted all the time. I am doing a lot more self care than before. Now I'm wondering if that is the influence of the Gods.
On another note, one of my favorite authors that writes books about the Sidhe is Melissa Marr. She depicts them as definitely other, self serving, manipulative, and dangerous.
yeah, I do think it's a v useful piece ofinfo. Thanks a lot to both : D
This was such a helpful video to watch, especially as a person considering becoming pagan. It made me feel secure in taking my time considering it. Best to you both!
been listening while driving to work and I can relate to the trancing bit. I've been holding off on announcing any form of fealty to a god since I divorced Christianity a few years ago.
.. we receive it in dimensions...visual, cognitive, emotional. Women gain knowledge from many sources, tangible and non-tangible.
Thank you for the information! I'm not pagan but it was really interesting to learn a little bit about these beings from both of your experiences with them.
for anyone who thinks you don't have to pay for information because its how it was done in the olde days-oh honey no.
i literally chopped firewood and helped repair things in addition to chipping in towards meals shared by the group.
because that's what you do as a community. you support each other however you are able.
Great video. I am still reading your suggested book and learning. Not sure what I want to do yet. Still apprehensive and scared. My mom instilled fear in me about "working with" or "calling" to something with such power that I cant control. I agree with her. But I cant shake this feeling.
Though it's not ancient or applicable to all/many non-witch Pagans, still I do think the general Threefold Rule/Rule of Three from Wicca is useful to remember before doing any working or reaching out to any deity/unGod. Whatever you do, be prepared for it to come back on you three times as hard.
This whole thing about secret pain kinda reminds me ICU Delurium. Nobody tells you that after coming out of a major surgery...you kinda might lose your mind and it could last from minutes to hours to weeks. Seems important to know...but i also get why its not talked about. Some people might never do the surgery if they knew! Anyway, forvgive me if thats out of the ballpark of this conversation. Just seemed similar.
Very interesting
I will say this, My Knowledge is free, "My Time Is Not."
The world of Spirit is not just Human Souls , there are others there that are also , older ..stronger more enmeshed in Nature. They are powerful beings, too many fairy encounters are proof of that . I have feeling they were here before we turned up on the Earth ,like Djinns.
My hair knotted once as a child and my grandmother said the elves/faeries wanted me to move where she lived. Then next time was at 17 during a magical but traumatic time. And now I am on my secpnd week of daily knots in the exact same place despite brushing them out. Any thoughts?
Just order 6 of her books.
The strange thing for me was being called by the Morrigan and then once I answered she became strangely silent
Patrick Bourgeois in my experience and what I have heard from others, I think this is kind of what she does.
It happened to me, first was the crows outside of my house for days, then dreams, and then complete silence.
I have been noticing who i think is the dagda in the form of protection, now my house is surrounded by pidgeons.
Rose Goi yep. The Morrígan led me to The Dagda too. They are sort of my cosmic parents.
I think I was getting signs from her but as soon as I acknowledged it it’s stopped I feel like
I would love to know the Dagda, he feels so gentle in a masculine way and I have never experienced that loving feeling
Hi, I'm about half way through this video at this point and I'm really enjoying it. Contracts are definitely what I need to be making. Just wondering if the children's voices I am hearing are actuallybackground noises or coming from elsewhere? I am hearing them both when Lora and Morgan are talking. I would actually be quite relieved to know they are real children background noises lol.
Morgan's son was wandering around, I believe ;-)
Humm I will listen again with paper and pencil
Now I'm feel quite scared to work quit any off then 😁 (Sorry for my English)
27:07 interesting point about unsentimentality, use and un/Gods-human connections: the way I've received, experienced (perhaps mischaracterised?) Brân is as someone who brings warmth and comfort that feels like care into my life...to what end if not care, then? Manawyddan has also specifically helped me out of a tough spot. The other Welsh Gods that I've briefly detected do not have a noticeable warm humane element in their communications, as expected.
The trick is too try refusing based on a vulnerability snd see the reaction of the HUMANS around you. It's nice to be part of something, but don't give up your autonomy or ignore your basic instincts. The benefit of solitary practice ... you grow faster and learn quicker to say no, sleep more, eat better, prime more often. LOOK BEFORE YOU LEAP
I was reading a book on Celtic Mythology and then watched about 40 mins of your talk before going to bed. I ended up having some intense dreams about Ireland. Which I can attribute to the book reading etc. But I woke up with the song " So early in the morning stuck in my head". I don't remember every even hearing the song before. I looked it up on Google and listened to it and sure enough it was the same song. It probably means nothing but it is extremely weird.
With regards to people being unwilling to pay for knowledge I think it comes out of the idea that the knowledge that you are restoring should be as intrinsically well known as literacy, and we don't pay for literacy. But of course, culturally, we are not in a place where this knowledge is all around us and so the people who are restoring it should absolutely be paid.
TS 1:59:07 for safety reasons, who did Morgan say to avoid? Thank you!
Question, I used to live on a farm that was a spiritual place, I was basically the caretaker. Then we were transferred due to work / income circumstances. After moving away, I started having health problems. Went to the Doctor, was put through all sorts of tests. The diagnosis was there’s nothing wrong. I had 2 medical Doctors tell me “ it’s all in your head, go see a psychologist “ . I’ve done that. She tells me that part of this is abuse as a child, and part of it is mourning. But my feeling is this more spiritual then anything else. Does this make sense?
Ever mind the law of 3, magic always starts with me. ASM
i think of everything they do ...as a language ...they want to tell you something...listen talk back ..it usually stops once i understand ..and the MORE i understand the more subtle and less disruptive it is ...its not that they want to fuck up your life ..they are TRYING to draw your attention to something
I have never been comfortable with the term smudging when it comes to cleansing with smoke as it's real meaning is to mark, accidentally soil...along that line. If you take the ash and rub it on yourself, that is at least close to smudging charcoal as an artist creating upon the surface you are marking. that works for me. I'm fine with using descriptive words in English, but would like to know some terms in Irish and how they would be used appropriately and if there are inappropriate uses you can give us a heads up on.
Love your chats. Thank you!
I did a whole free class on this topic, its right here on this channel.
I came across your videos after some pushing from the fae. I believe there's a contract somewhere back in my family that has skipped at minimum 3 generations of upkeep and I'm struggling to navigate it. I keep getting the feeling it's a very old one and I really need some help.
Claude Lecouteux 1:20:00
I've been enjoying your videos. I recently found out my DNA is Irish/Scottish/Welsh with a touch of French and 1% Benin and Togo. In this video you mentioned the "She" or how is it spelled and what are they. My entire life has been filled with paranormal encounters that even other people experienced with me. Black mists, Shadows... lights and t.v's turning on and off. I've always been drawn into the occult and practice witchcraft (as it came naturally) I do not know who my bio dad is as I was lied to and now know that he was Celtic. I had crows/ravens around me almost everywhere I have lived...they suddenly have disappeared :( I smell a beautiful floral (but explainable scent) come around me even when outside. My husband has even smelled it...is this a particular Goddess, God or entity??? I have items in the home that have disappeared for months only to suddenly reappear (and we had looked everywhere) even one of my cat's toys. I still have a kitchen pan missing. I would love some authentic insight or advice. To really emphasis the paranormal stuff...when I was between 17 and 19 my mother had to have her house blessed as the amount of activity was terrifying and a Pastor even witnessed it ! I still have things but I am never scared anymore and some have told me "I'm haunted" LOL!
Also my hair has changed as well, the color and is curly now but my eye color changed too, I even have photos to prove it but never thought this was related to anything paranormal etc...my husband has been married to me since June 2000 and the change was sudden and happened in 2009 merging with 2010. I had reddish hair with dark brown eyes, now I have darker hair and my eyes are a strange golden brown hazelish color. Until you two brought this up I never put this together with working with "beings" I work with what I thought were spirits...but now I would love to know what this is from an Irish/Celtic understanding. This has me a little creeped. My hair color changed in 2009/2010 but the curls just happened this past summer and I'm 41 years old..so what the heck!
I find this very curious. Hair does tend to get darker with age and getting less sun exposure could make hair darker as it's not bleached by the sun and eyes lighter the body would be producing less melatonin. Do you this could be part of it? How hair turns curly though, (unless you've got a wave already and move somewhere more humid) I have no idea!
Interesting curly has happened to myself and the red is very highlighted now in with the grey/ silver? All since I moved here.
Would this experience be The Morrigan:?
re: my premonition of death and crow; - I wonder if someone can help me figure this out as I have been searching far and wide for a direction about this even though my intuition is telling me what I think it might be. I will try to make this very short and brief I will put it in point form;
-after a life tragedy I'm coming into awareness in terms of my connection to the other worlds, psychic abilities and more specifically connection with Raven / crows but birds in general too.
-in my 20s (I'm 40 now)-, I used to go sit at the cemetery when I had a lot of anxiety from school. It was a peaceful place and one day I was sitting in my car with the window down, noticed a crow or Raven that flew in front of the car and landed on the grass by a tombstone and I was just looking at it, and my mind literally just had a flash of thought across that that literally said “, Grandma is going to die tonight”. I thought it was so random and I just thought my mind was going to weird places because I saw a crow and I know that there's a superstition about them. My grandmother was not sick and in fact did actually pass away that morning the next day. No one could get ahold of her and my uncle had to crawl in her bedroom window to find her having passed away in her sleep. I was really freaked out about this and never told anybody and they would think I was crazy or lying.
2.I am a highly sensitive person and I'm starting to realize it now but ever since I was a young child I've always been connected to animals in terms of teaching people to save them and not hurt bugs etc (scoop up spiders let them outside etc) . That was the only time that I had something pop across my head - I have had other things since (non row related) but only a few predictions that happened, including a thought telling me, "Imagine this transport truck hit you up here on this skyway"- and 3 seconds later it did and I survived a horrific accident.
3.Through a reading recently I've been told that I have connections to the druid druidic Celtic Nordic ancestral. I had a major obsession with Princesses and castle/palaces an actually figured out that I'm obsessed with what you call the "Gothic architecture"- ornate, filligree , molding.) Ever since I was little I was obsessed with the doors of churches and the door knockers and every little thing that had to do with that kind of stuff. It's interesting that there are crows in a lot of Nordic mythology.
4. In keeping up with this obsession, my favorite movie is Sleeping Beauty and I really always wanted a crow like Maleficent that sat on her shoulder and would fly on her finger to which in my 18th year I purchased a lovebird and he was my best friend for 20 years.
5. Playing in my parents pool one day in the summer on a flotation, a wild Sparrow landed right on my chest. I felt the air in my face as the wings were beating and as I looked up he just plopped onto my chest for a quick moment and then flew away.
6.most recently I walked outside to my car after I had been doing a lot of this spiritual counseling after the trauma in my life lately, and I walked out to my car and 123 crows in unison one after the other flew to a tree right in front of me
I feel like I'm reading into things but this just seems like too much to be a coincidence does anyone have any idea what the heck is happening mainly about my premonition and the crow.r
31:54.. yep. yes it is dear lady
@Lora O'Brien, Hello, is there any written or printed version of this session? I.e. in the form of the article. Thank you.)
I’m wanting to learn about all Celtic paganism as I’m still figuring out where I’m drawn. I don’t know if I have Irish specific heritage but I know I have Celtic heritage and I want to learn about what my ancestors may have believed in and worked with. I’m nervous about it all but I wanted to ask, if someone is unsure if they will end up in Irish specific paganism, is it still ok to sign up for The Irish Paganism school?
lol when you mentioned angelfire and geocities
catapulted me back in time
A period of physical illness (neuropathy, of no known cause) and walking depression during pandemic era took me away from using my altar for simple gratitude prayers daily/weekly, and I can't work out whether the two instances are linked and which came first. How could I use divination or another method to find out?
Likewise; whenever I see a crow (and I see many, living in the Welsh countryside, I always quietly under my breath greet Brân Fendigaidd, and I used to greet Arawn as well, but in light of this topic I wonder and worry now if that dual acknowledgement was taken as an insult?
Hi there ☺
I just found this video, just half way through and so far I'm loving it... Maybe I feel I can't agree with all that's been said but I'm not an expert at all, so I take those thinks as an
" maybe warning" , not sure if this makes sense 😞. Anyway... I feel I been called by Morrigan, and that's very confused cause I just dedicate myself to Cerridwen... I'm trying to gather as much info I can about Morrigan and the "similarities" with Cerridwen... I've been thinking now that Morrigan was been around most of the time, but I understood Her as Cerridwen or maybe they just merged at somepoint... I don't know... very confusing!! I did an "Embodiment" recently and I know that wasn't Cerridwen... the energy was more agressive, angry, bigger...
( it's hard to descrive)
I've got Morgan's and Stephanie woodfields 's books about Morrigan , anything else you could recomend?
Also, and as I said , I know nothing about Irish Gods and Folk people, Who is The She? It caught my attention for some reason.
I started to experience body changes in a very young age: when I was about 7 years old my hair got black and very straight abd my eyes became black too...
Around 15 my hair got light brown my eyes got light brown too.
About 10 years ago when I started to work with Iberian Celtic Goddesses ( I'm Portuguese) my hair became extremely curly... I think this was the first time I hear someone touching that subject!! Thank you 💜💜
There's a resources download recommended in the notes under all my videos
Liked your blue hair lora in the other videos. Fi
45:38 there ought to be a similar temporary year-long trial contract in human-human marriages or arrangements as well, would save a lot of heartbreak and mess. You don't need a lifelong spouse to be a valid person, and likewise you don't need a devotion to a particular deity to be a valid Pagan. Myself; though I respect, esteem and enjoy walking alongside the Brythonic pantheon, and hope to for all my life, still I'm not planning on marrying them or going into business directly with them--the same way and for the same reasons that I'm not planning on doing that with another person. I love my freedom! (That said, life takes you on some strange unforeseen journeys...)
What do you call the small things which moves very fast and are very courious, flies and you see them in the corner of your eye. To be really into watching you doing things like your makeup for some reason. Loves mist . Have a thing for moving your stuff about sometimes but can put it back if you ask nicely. Not really gnomes.
When it comes to the sillier “pop lore” ideas put out there about fairies, is there any chance that maybe the fairies themselves are partly responsible? I can tell you that as an artist, sometimes I feel like there are some mischievous muse like spirits that possess me and put silly ideas in my head. Especially if I am under the influence. I have read some tales that mention similar ideas to this. Sometimes the ideas are good for entertainment (even if ridiculous), but sometimes they’re awful. I have channeled in some information about this through divination, but wonder if there is established out there about it.
I think its possible. There's certainly some who are served by having people think they are silly and harmless
“Under the influence” Key phrase here.
Lol I feel _so_ called out at the beginning there of people who are suffering from cognitive dissonance!
Yeah, Badb just made me spend almost 2 years in a deep mental crisis that I'm jut getting over and dealing proper with. Phew!
You guys just get out the hammer and hit nails right on the head. I felt called out when you said going from one to the other when s*** gets too real is so something I've done.
Are there fae everywhere in the world or only in Ireland and Scotland?
Everywhere has genii locorum, local spirits & unGods.
Is Sekhmet a Morrigan?
I'm not really familiar with this but listening to you talk it sounds very dark. It makes me wonder why people would want this?
It's a good idear to look at health and safety and one's self care .our own negative behaviours...can probably come into conflict with magic even never mind the morrigan..I surpose it's easier to sit in the pub for an hour..would look to boundries with these things..some thing happened to Sean cunningham.
Dont know what ..though. maybe when your times up....but journeying .to places needs respectful.communication..please forgive if I've missed the point.fiona
