While exploring Duchas.ie, Lora found a story called 'Jenny on the Hill' which was recorded in County Roscommon. This episode details that Irish folklore story, with thoughts from Lora on how and why it might be related to the Badb, one of the Morrigan's sisters or aspects.

When you begin to study Irish History there can be some confusion as to the terminology, particularly around the time periods and the dates of what happened when. We thought it would be useful to put together a simple guide to the phases and dates that you’ll see mentioned when you study any Irish History.

This information is included in many of our classes at the Irish Pagan School. It forms a basis for a lot of what you’ll learn when you’re studying Irish mythology and lore from the ancient texts. It’s good to have a clear grounding though, and to this end, we also took some time to put together a downloadable PDF guide.

You can get it at the link below this blog post (no email or anything is required, we just want you to have it if you need it!) - https://loraobrien.ie/irish-history/

To get a good look at Irish Pagan Beliefs, there are three things we’ll need to take into account:

• historic pagan beliefs, ie, pre christian native spirituality
• the blend of christian and pagan beliefs through folklore and culture
• modern pagan beliefs, ie, neo pagan spirituality and organisation.

Briefly though, coz any of those things are an essay in their own right. We’ll keep it simple enough here.

You might have made these Pagan Mistakes in the past and still feel mortified – maybe even felt like you couldn’t go back to the Coven/Group/Event ever again? Or maybe you’ve been doing some (or all) of these things and didn’t even realise, this whole time. But look, we’ve all been there, I promise. This article isn’t about shaming or blaming. It’s like I always say though (actually, it wasn’t me that said it first)…
