NeuKelte, German #Celtic #LegendaryWednesday: The legend of the #Cailleach, goddess of winter, can be found not only in #Ireland, but in #Scotland and the #IsleOfMan, too. She is associated with winter, and the creation of the landscape. The Cailleach displays several traits befitting the personification of winter: she herds deer, she fights spring, and her staff freezes the ground.

The Cailleach, or “Veiled One,” was a Celtic goddess who ruled over the winds and winter. She is also known as as the Queen of Air and Darkness. She was a patron of animals especially wolves. She was neither good or evil in lore. #SuperstitiionSat
