Boann the Celtic Irish Goddess of the Rivers

Boann the Celtic Irish Goddess of the Rivers-
Boann was the water goddess whose name given to the river Boyne. It was associated with its

Boann Celtic Irish Goddess of Rivers

source as the 'poetic cauldron of inspiration'. I thought I would explore another Celtic Irish
Goddess that hasn't been know quite as much as the other Goddess. I found this
Goddess Boann of the Rivers quite interesting and I hope You All my dears will 
find her tale as interesting too! I have found that there are many venison of the Goddess
Boann of the Rivers in Ireland. 
From my readings I've found that there are a variety of variations of the legend of the Goddess Boann.
Yet there is one element that remains always the same in her story. And that is the fact that she was
the wife of Nechtan, another God of water. Not to be mixed up with the Greek Sea Gods of water: Poseidon, Neptume, Amphitrite, Triton, Nereids and Thetis. Like herself, Boann was a Water Goddess

Poseidon Greek God of the Seas

of the Rivers and one of her myths concerns the water. According to the tale, there was a sacred well
(Sidhe Nechtan) that contained the source of knowledge. All were forbidden to approach this well,
with the exception of the God Nechtan which of course was Boann's husband and his servants. 
This meant his Goddess Boann too! She to was forbidden to be in this scared Well Too! Well
Boann being a Goddess ignored the waring probably because she was a goddess and felt she 

could go to any scared well she pleased and strode right up to the sacred well, thus violating 

the sanctity of the area. For this act, the Goddess Boann was punished, and the waters of the defiled 

 

Goddess Boann in Scared Well

Goddess Boann became a
Deity of the Rivers 

Now, in some versions, I found the Goddess was drowned; while in others she managed to outrun the
raging currents of the river. In either case, this water became the river
that was known henceforth as the
Boyne. And The Goddess Boann thereafter became the presiding deity of that river.
Another Myth of the Goddess Boann was that she bore Oenghus. And she and the leader

The Secret Child of Love
that was born 

of the Tuatha De Danaan, the Dagdha engaged in an illicit affair which resulted in the birth of the God of
Love. It was Said in the legend that since both the Goddess Boann and the Dagdha had wished
to keep the birth of the God of Love and their rendezvous a secret, they used their divine
powers to cause the nine month gestation period to last but a single day/so it would seem this way
for everyone at the time living in that ancient place. For the sun became frozen in the skies for those
nine months , never setting and never rising. Then on this magick day- Oenghus emerged into the world.
This being the child they bore.... It was said that a sacred spring was then fed as a well which nine hazel
Trees grew, dropping their magic nuts into the depths of the clear pool feeding five salmon who swam into
its crystal water. After these five salmon ate these inspiring hazel nuts it caused five streams to burst forth
from the well of knowledge in which is said to be the five senses, without which no wisdom can be acquired.

There are other Legends and Myths to this tale of the Goddess Boann the

Goddess Boann

Celtic Irish Goddess of the Rivers. As one I found of the Dadga, the Irish Zeus who desired the Beauty of the Goddess Boann and he sent her husband God Nechtan of Water on a very long erran, making it a nine

months which seems like one day. It seems like these gods like to stop time quite a bit in the Irish ancient times of Nine months odd - the why they make it thus toward the birth of a child/ as today nine months is the period of time you are pregnant to have a child of modern times.. Makes you think..Hummm. So back to 

or Tale... So this union of Aonghus Og, the God of love was born. He was called Og Because Goddess

Boann said.' Young is the son who was begotten at the break of Day and born betwixt it and evening'.

After doing this post on the Goddess Boann of the Rivers, I found that there were many tales of her Legend and life. And to write down all of them would be to much.. I decided to give you the best of her tales that I could and I hope thru these tales of this beautiful Goddess of Celtic Irish descant of the Rivers was as fun and interesting for you all as it was for myself. I find in doing these different Gods and Goddess, they have such amazing and different kinda lives far from what we would ever image. 

At any Rate I hope that I have brought you another interesting

story/legend/myth to you all my dear friends and followers

I love you all very much !!!

OLWEN Celtic Goddess of Flowers and Springtime

OLWEN GODDESS of FLOWERS and SPRINGTIME-
I thought I would take you all back the the Celtic times of the Great Goddesses

Olwen Celtic Goddess of
Flowers and Springtime

I love the time.. There were such good times it seems full of life and Happiness
although I know that with everything there is good there is trouble times too.
But it always seemed that in the times of the Goddesses of Earth it was a much happier
time than what is happening on our Earth today. So my dearest Friends and Follower
That is why I try to bring you all to happy times in history, whether it be the times
of the Dragons, Fairies, Magical Creatures or the Grand Gods and Goddesses
I hope that I can make a happy place for you all to come to, when your day at what
ever you may do. Where ever you may live all over the world that we can come together
here as one happy people in my magical land..
So today I am going to discover with you all the Celtic Goddess Olwen of Flowers & Spring.

She also symbolizes love and re-birth. As I went to research the Goddess Olwen of Flowers

Goddess Persephone in Spring

Hades Taking Persephone

and Springtime I can't stop and thing how much she in some ways reminds me of the Goddess Persephone

from the grown where she was just picking flowing for springs... And of course you all known the rest
of the story if note I have posted this Goddesses tale too. All you have to do is just look on my labels on the right side of my blog at the bottom side..
Olwen the Celtic Goddess of Flowers and Springtime. I found in here photos that she was either shown as a happy goddess with flowers all around her or in a red Celtic gown very beautiful but she seemed sad.. Her story goes.. That she is a Welsh Goddess of the Spring and Sunlight. She is depicted as a beautiful woman with very pale skin with yellow

OLWEN GODDESS Walking thru the forest in Spring

blonde hair in most cases. It usually is shown flowing behind her as she moves about. But there are also painting showing here with her beauty showing her with her
standing and looking quite sad. I couldn't tell you what they were trying to depite her thinking in those type of paintings.. Her name means white path and it is believed that she leaves a trail of white clover or trefoils as she passes in the awakening meadows of spring. Olwen's Magick causes all the flowers and trees to bloom as she walks by them.  Even thought she is mostly painted in the red dress she is also called the White Lady of the Day! I found this kinda odd being that I couldn't find any images of Olwen in a white

This show the story Olwen a daughter
of the Giants

dress, but that isn't the most important part of the post. In Welsh Legend, OLWEN was a Beautiful Maiden, the lover of CULHWCH and the daugther of the Giant, "YSPADDADEN'. Her father is fated to die if she ever marries, so when 'CULHWCH' comes to court her he insisted that 'CULHWCH' complete several seemingly impossible tasks before he world allow them to marry, and with the help of his cousin, ' King Arthur CULHWCH', succeeds and the Giant dies, allowing 'Olwen to marry her Suitor. The storey of Olwyn The
Welsh Goddess, a daughter of the King of the Giants, called Ysbadadden, who named her Olwyn which meant 'the golden wheel'. Kinda makes some see her as an opposing force to the Goddess Arianrhod of the Moon 'The silver Wheel', but not really in my own opinion. I found that Olwen the Welsh Goddess had a nickname and that was "Lady of the White Tracks'. Why she got this nickname is because of wherever she had walked the trefoil plants commonly were called shamrocks that would pop-up. This would indicate that she may have been a Triple Goddess unto

father came to her rescue but she still had a
link to the faery kingdom

Olwen In Fairyland

herself with several other association long her that have been long lost
over the decades. The hero of her tale was Culhwch the suitor of Olwen who went on a mythical journey to find her after her father, who knew he would die if their marriage took place, hid her. In this part of the myth she is the May Queen, a partner to the new sacrificial God who takes the  place of the old one. Olwen also had many adventures in fairyland after she was captured by hores riding with the faeries. She was rescued by her father after a year and a day of captivity. She is still May Queens and is often still linked to the faery kingdom.

I hope you all Enjoyed my post on-

Olwen the Welsh Celtic Goddess of flowers and Springtime

Yet as you read on there was a lot more to this goddess

and with that I hope this was a good read

I love you all my dear Friends and Followers always!
