The Morrigan’s Prophecy on Peace:

Peace to the sky

Sky to the earth

Earth beneath sky

Strength in each man

A cup full of honey

Honour enough

Summer in Winter

Spear supported by shield

Shields supported by forts

Forts fierce and eager for battle

Fleece from sheep

Woods full of stags

Forever destructions have departed

Fruit on trees

A branch drooping down

Drooping from growth

Wealth for a son

A son very learned

Neck of bull in yoke

A bull from a song

Knots in woods

Wood for a fire

Fire as wanted

Walls new and bright

Salmon their victory

The Boyne their hostel

Hostel of excellent size

New growth after Spring

In Autumn horses increase

The land held secure

Land recounted with excellence of word

Be might to the eternal much excellent woods

Peace as high as the sky

Be nine times eternal

In this episode of Stories of -Esses, Gaby and Dani delve into the haunting legend of La Llorona, a mythical figure deeply rooted in Mexican and Chicana/o culture. La Llorona, also known as "The Weeping Woman," is portrayed as a neglected mother, a victim of marital betrayal, and a symbol of defiance against societal expectations.

The narrative revolves around Maria, christened La Llorona, whose captivating beauty attracts the attention of both rich and poor men in her village. Conflicting accounts of her motherhood emerge, with some versions suggesting neglect leading to her sons' drowning, while others depict her as a victim of a deteriorating marriage.

The podcast explores the complex roles imposed on women within Chicana/o culture, challenging oppressive ideologies and empowering women through the reimagining of figures like La Llorona. It also examines how popular media reinforces traditional gender roles by drawing connections between La Llorona's story and modern contexts.

Sandra Cisneros' "Woman Hollering Creek" provides a lens through which the podcast emphasizes the importance of adapting and reclaiming myths to reshape cultural norms and expectations.

Interviews with researchers shed light on gender-based interpretations of La Llorona, highlighting how the myth reflects patriarchal views within the Catholic Church and Mexican society. Men tend to vilify La Llorona for defying expected roles, while women sympathize with her as a victim of abandonment and infidelity.

Whether seen as a cautionary tale, a defender against abuse, or a symbol of feminist resistance, La Llorona continues to resonate, embodying universal themes of love and pain.
