Danu

Dia dhuit, which means hello in Irish! I am Brigid, but also known as Brigit, Bride, Brighid and many others. My name means “Exalted One.” I am one of the most important goddesses to Ireland and England. I am the patroness of fire, unity, poetry, healing, and childbirth. I am also known as the Triple Goddess, the three goddesses stand for: the fire of inspiration, the fire of forge, and the fire of earth. Most deities about me were passed orally from generation to generation. This is the main deity that has been recorded, two lepers showed up at my holy well at Kildare and made a request to be recuperated. I revealed to them that they needed to bathe each other until the point when their skin recuperated. After the first was recuperated,…

led him to find his love, Caer”3. She “was supposed to be turned into a swan for a festival, and, since Aonghus did not want to have to leave his love after just shortly finding her, he sacrificed himself to also be turned into a swan so they could spend the rest of their lives together”3. The main gods in Celtic mythology consist of ten of the most relevant gods. They include “Morrigan, Aonghus, Danu, Dagda, Cuchulainn, Brigit, Cernunnus, and Abandinus”3. Depending on which myth is being…

From Lir came the gods Manannan, Branwen, and Bran. From Danu many more came, Dagda, Nuadha, Dienceght, Goihbhio, Morrigan, and Brighid. The “children” of the two gods went on to create two races that Celtic culture sings of. This is the only Celtic creation story known to have survived. But only a small sect of Celtics worshipped the gods mentioned in this myth. There were two types of Celtics, Christian celtics (who followed the teachings of Christianity) and Pagan Celtics (the ones who were…

It is said that she was one of the wives of Dagda. As the myth goes during the Samhain festival Morrigan and Dagda sleep together to renew the prosperity of Ireland. In this role she was seen as the supreme power of Ireland. Morrigan is said to be one of the Tuatha Dé Danann, who were known as the people's tribe of the Goddess Danu. One of the greatest Irish myths of the Tuatha Dé Danann is the Cath Maige Tuired or the Battle of Pillars, a battle between the Tuatha Dé Danann and the Formorians,…

Diocletian. Diocletian challenged the Roman Augustus of the east, Aper, and through military combat, successfully removed him from power. As the western Augustus, Carinus marched east to combat Diocletian’s rise to power but was quickly killed by his enemy. Diocletian became the next emperor and brought political stability to Rome. As seen in the two rivalries, both Decius and Diocletian became emperors through military conquest and dominance, which thus shows how political means and family…

Roman observers, again, compared him to Apollo and Mercury. The Dagda, however, was extremely important to the Celts of Ireland, since he led his army of gods and supernatural people to take control of the previous gods of Ireland and make it to where the Celts could live in peace. Dagda became king of his tribe the (Tuatha Dé Danann, or the Tuatha Dé), after his ancestor Nuada was wounded. The tribe name means “people of the Danu” or “tribe of the gods” and their victory led to the previous…

Showing appreciation for the secrecies and manifestations of all living beings, be they flora or fauna, is deeply revered and at the center of the Druid beliefs. Although Druids do not adhere to one specific deity, the Celtic gods seem to have the greatest influence on the Druids of old, depending upon the region of its followers and the deity’s who were worshipped by their ancestors. The Celtic gods were worshipped by people in the western part of Europe, the British, Irish and Gallic. The…

To do so, making comparison is perhaps one of the best methods to recognize why they are different or similar by nature or by legislation. There have been, however, so far just a few research to make a comparison the central banks among countries. Tache & Danu (2014) conducted a survey on three main central banks, namely the European Central Bank (ECB), the US Federal Reserve (Fed), and the Bank of Japan (BoJ), in three areas that are central banks’ goals, the organizational structures,…

fortunate that some of these manuscripts survived the burning purges of the Christians. The olderst Irish narrative literature was in prose form, but the earliest written literature is poetry. The oral tradition in Ireland was quite advanced long before anything was written down. Language similarities between the Celtic Gaelic, Sanskrit and other Indo-European languages shows a cultural connection, or at least a cultural assimilation, that Celts mus have encountered on their migrational…

Declan shrugged it off and helped to hide her hair under a tight cap. Moira winced again as he pushed on a pair of ankle boots that were two sizes too big. Moira grabbed her own shift and shoved it into the large pants pocket built into the side. "Let's go, before we are caught." He had a slight grin on his face as they made their way to the side doors. "Stay close to me, Danu, so we don't become separated. Act like you are meant to be here and no one will question us too closely. If someone…
