#Celtic#MythologyMonday: Following the defeat of the Fomorians by the Tuatha Dé Danann in the Second Battle of Mag Tuired, #Badb sings a prophecy celebrating the victory and a time of peace:
„Peace up to heaven.
Heaven down to earth.
Earth beneath heaven,
Strength in each,
A cup very full,
Full of honey;
Mead in abundance.
Summer in winter...“

#FaustianFriday: Black-winged Mórrígan and the scald-crow #Badb both took crow forms, as did the continental Celtic #Cathubodua. All were connected with battle.
