Discover a wellspring of Celtic magic that is vibrantly contemporary yet draws heavily on ancient and mythological texts. Weaving together practices and lore gleaned from Irish, British, Scottish, and Continental Celtic traditions, this book guides you through rituals and deity work that you can apply to healing, empowerment, protection, social justice, and more. Morpheus Ravenna's methods are rooted in the beliefs of multiple gods (polytheism), spirits that dwell in all things (animism), and the hidden but ever-present spirit realm (the Otherworld). Explore Celtic-based practices like divination, sigil work, spirit alliances, and necromancy. You will also learn about spiritual hygiene, protection, and binding. Featuring Morpheus' own illustrations throughout the book and on the cover, this book helps you deepen your devotional and magical experience. Includes a foreword by River Devora, a multi-traditional spirit worker, healer, and teacher

This book is an offering of devotion, both to the Morrígan and her Sisters, and to the poetic tradition that holds their myths and texts. In these pages is presented a Litany of a hundred names and epithets of praise to the Daughters of Ernmas-the Irish war goddesses Morrígan, Macha, Badb, and Némain. Following the Litany, commentary on each of the epithets is provided, giving its context and background in the Irish source literature, as well as what the language of the epithet tells us about its meaning.
