A captivating contradiction: a demonic female who both haunts and heals; benevolent in one moment, ghastly the next, and kind the moment after that.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe Morrigan is one of Pagan Ireland's most famous--and notorious--goddesses. Her name translated as \"phantom queen\" or \"great queen,\" the Morrigan is famous for being a goddess of war, witchcraft and death, protection and retribution. This book also explores her patronage of motherhood, healing, shapeshifting, and the land. Classified among the Sidhe (fairies), the Morrigan dates back at least to Ireland's Iron Age, but she is as modern as she is ancient―enjoying a growing contemporary and global following. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAuthor Courtney Weber provides a guide for the modern devotee of this complex, mysterious goddess that encompasses practical veneration with modern devotionals, entwined with traditional lore and Irish-Celtic history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Courtney Weber\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1578636639\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781578636631\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Weiser Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/26\/2019","brand":"Courtney Weber","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44053877686527,"sku":"9781578636631","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fd44cdc6-f938-4148-ba7c-e2348f915dc8.jpg?v=1685026751","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-morrigan-courtney-weber-9781578636631","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
