Who Is The Morrígan?
The Morrígan (often “Great Queen” or “Phantom Queen”) is a Celtic goddess of sovereignty and shapeshifting power. She presides over thresholds—before the battle, during the choice, after the truth lands. She confronts stagnation and weak boundaries, insisting you claim your life with clarity.
Working with her is not about constant war; it’s about choosing what you will stand for, then standing.

Signs The Morrígan May Be Reaching Out
Repeated encounters with crows/ravens or their calls at pivotal moments
Sudden clarity around a decision you’ve avoided
Dreams of rivers, fords, or cloaked figures
A pull toward ethical courage: leaving what drains you, naming what’s true
Feeling “armored” after ritual—strong spine, steady breath
---
Ways to Connect (Gentle, Respectful)
Keep a small black cloth or raven feather on your altar
Offer clean water, dark berries, bread, or iron (nail/coin)
Journal on the prompt: “Where am I giving away my crown?”
Walk at dawn or dusk and speak your vow to the wind (see ritual)

Sovereignty Vow Ritual (5 Minutes)
You’ll need: a black candle (or any), a cup of water, a red thread/string.
1. Sit with the water before you; light the candle.
2. Hold the red thread and name the boundary or choice you claim.
3. Say:
> “Morrígan, Great Queen, witness me.
I choose my life. I keep my word.
Let what is not aligned fall away.”
4. Tie the thread around your wrist/altar object. Sip the water to seal the vow.
5. Snuff the candle. Keep the thread until the change holds, then burn or bury it.
