44. Cailleach Beira: The Ancient Hag Deity of Winter
Mountain builder, bone singer, bringer of winter, the Cailleach Beira is a Hag unto her own. Join Jenny in this episode as she tells many tales of the giant blue-faced deity who rules over the cruel, harsh winters of Scotland. From her shaping of the land, to her protective peace, to her bitter rage-filled jealousy of the beautiful maiden of Spring, Bride, the Cailleach Beira rules over not just winter, but also our hearts.
