The Mabinogion – Celtic Tales of Magic and Transformation
In this episode of Echoes of Eternity, we explore The Mabinogion, a collection of Welsh myths that blend magic, honor, and the supernatural. Central to the tradition are the Four Branches of the Mabinogi:
Pwyll, Prince of Dyfed, who swaps places with the lord of the Otherworld and later wins the hand of Rhiannon.
Branwen, Daughter of Llyr, whose tragic marriage to the King of Ireland leads to devastating war and sacrifice.
Manawydan, Son of Llyr, who endures a cursed, barren land and restores fertility through patience and wit.
Math, Son of Mathonwy, featuring Gwydion’s shape-shifting punishments and the creation—and betrayal—of Blodeuwedd, the flower-born woman turned into an owl.
These stories highlight Celtic values of honor, justice, transformation, and resilience, while emphasizing the thin veil between the human world and the Otherworld. Their legacy influenced Arthurian legends, modern fantasy, and remain a cornerstone of Welsh cultural identity.
