Nicnevin: Queen of the Witches and Lady of the Unseelie Court

In Scottish folklore, Nicnevin emerges as the Queen of the Witches, intertwining goddess, witch, and fae queen elements. Originating from 16th-century texts, she symbolizes transformation, female sovereignty, and chaos. Associated with the moon and the Wild Hunt, her enduring presence inspires rituals of reverence for the unseen, echoing strength and wisdom.
