Register today so you won't miss out on this weekend of presentations by engaging speakers and teachers, bardic circle, ritual, unique vendors, and the warmth of community as women and Sisters gather around our community hearth fire!

"When are judged the chairs, Excelling them (will be) mine, My chair, my cauldron, and my laws, And my pervading eloquence, meet for the chair. I am called skilful in the court of Don." - from The Chair of Ceridwen in The Four Ancient Books of Wales by W. F. Skene (1868) #ceridwen #taliesin #bard

Both books are appropriate for those with academic interest in early Welsh literature, the tales of Y Mabinogi, and the myths and legends of Celtic lands - as well as Welsh-centered polytheistic practitioners, Pagans, druids, and devotees of these Goddesses. /9

In addition to this stand-alone book, a new hardcover collector's edition that bundles "Blodeuwedd" with "Rhiannon: Great Queen of the Celtic Britons" - another deeply researched stand-alone work from me - is about to be released. Learn more here: www.collectiveinkbooks.com/moon-books/a... /8

Jhenah Telyndru @ynysafallon.bsky.social · 21/02/2025

I explored all of this in my master's thesis, and my research was the basis for writing "Bloduewedd: Welsh Goddess of Seasonal Sovereignty", published by @moonbooksci.bsky.social - check it out if you'd like to learn more. /7

A cultural clash between the rights and powers of women and men underscores the whole of the Fourth Branch; for example, the struggle between Gwydion and Arianrhod that lead to the creation of Blodeuedd is believed to be echos of a cultural shift from matriliny to patriliny. /6

Jhenah Telyndru @ynysafallon.bsky.social · 21/02/2025

Looking at her tale from a medieval Welsh perspective helps to contextualize some of her actions, especially around her marriage (the legally required consent is not present) and her adultery (sleeping openly with someone for 3 nights is one of nine recognized forms of marriage in medieval Wales)./5

Jhenah Telyndru @ynysafallon.bsky.social · 21/02/2025

Made from components of the land, testing the worth of her chosen mate, transforming from one form to another as a reflection of her seasonal allegiance, I believe Blodeuwedd is a Seasonal Sovereignty figure, partnered with the Solar Hero of Summer, and the Otherworldly Champion of Winter. /4

Jhenah Telyndru @ynysafallon.bsky.social · 21/02/2025

Yet, there is more to Blodeuwedd than meets the eye. Ancient threads of tale run through Y Mabinogi, perhaps originating in pre-Christian times. Her love triangle with Lleu & Gronw suggests a seasonal sovereignty myth, for which there are many examples in Celtic tales and Arthurian tradition. /3

Jhenah Telyndru @ynysafallon.bsky.social · 21/02/2025

Found in the Fourth Branch of Y Mabinogi, c. 12th century but likely based in oral tradition, hers was a cautionary tale to the contemporary medieval audience: women who subvert expectations around their social roles, or express sexual agency can expect to be banished to the fringes of society. /2

From flowers of Oak, Broom, and Meadowsweet, Blodeuedd ("Flowers") was created to be the wife of Lleu Llaw Gyffes who was forbidden to marry a human woman. She was later turned into an owl (renamed Blodeuwedd - "Flower Face") for betraying him. Art by Dan Goodfellow. /1 #Welsh #Mabinogi #FolkyFriday

Art by Dan Goodfellow showing Blodeuwedd, a woman crowned with flowers of oak, broom, and meadowsweet, whose arms are owl wings. This is an image depicting a character found in the Forth Branch of the medieval Welsh story cycle "Y Mabinogi".

If your Christianity causes you to be offended by someone asking the most powerful person in the country to be merciful towards the powerless, then you have profoundly misunderstood the teachings of Jesus Christ.

I am one person, what can I do to help? Find that thing, however small it is. We don’t help everyone and everything at once; help is ever and only delivered in a single moment of decisions. And helping oneself if that’s needed is always okay too. Or, you could just do like Seamus is doing and nap.
