The Story of the Morrigan, Celtic Goddess of Fate (Irish mythology)

In the lush, mystical heartlands of ancient Ireland, our journey tonight weaves through the entwined destinies of the Morrigan and Cú Chulainn against the dramatic backdrop of the epic Táin Bó Cúailnge. As the goddess of war and fate, the Morrigan shifts from spectral allure to formidable antagonist, challenging the hero through her transformative powers that mirror the unruly nature of war itself. Her spectral dance between the forms of raven, heifer, and crone beneath a dusky sky teaches profound lessons about the cycles of life and the shadowed weave of destiny. Let the whispers of this ancient lore cradle you into a night of deep, mythic dreams, where each stirring shadow tells a tale of old.This episode is hosted by Ashley Johnson.
