• The Cailleach: Hag of Winter and Stone

  

  The Cailleach is a significant figure in Celtic mythology, symbolizing winter and natural forces like storms and mountains. She shapes landscapes, rules over winter, and embodies resilience and acceptance. Her lessons remind us of the importance of rest and reflection before renewal, encouraging a connection with nature and its wisdom.
