“Whether in public, or in secret, we need to oppose this regime with everything we’ve got,” writes Storm Faerywolf as today’s No Kings protests gather around the world. “And since this is a publication for Pagans and Witches, this means magic.”

Started reading a book on Saint Íta and so far I'm finding that she lines up with my expectations of the long-proposed missing Allmother archetype of the Morrigan.
It's been proposed for a long time that the Morrigan, whose husband An Dagda has the epithet "Ollathair" or "Great Father", and whose own name means "Great Queen", may be "Danu", the mother-goddess who gives the Tuatha Dé Dannann their matronymic name.
But the mythic Morrigan lacks this whole side, presenting only as an Ur-Fury.
I haven't read enough yet but I'm already seeing strong clues of a few things I've been expecting:
* Hints that she is the mother of moon/immortality god Midir/Saint Brendan
* An association with sea travel and the shore
* Battle associations
* Possible ambivalent relationship with the "enemy" or "anti-gods" - In Saint Íta this is "those mean pagans", in original probably the Fómhuire.
Looking forward to developing this more. The Morrigan is huge in #Pagan and #Neopagan circles.
