The first in our re-introduction of our monthly Goddess Circles. In this circle we will invoke Cailleach, the goddess of winter and wisdom. Revered in the folklore of Ireland, Scotland, and the Isle of Man, the Cailleach is an enigmatic deity who embodies the cyclical nature of life, the transformative power of the seasons, and the deep wisdom gained through experience. Beyond her association with winter, the Cailleach is revered as a goddess of wisdom and creation. She is often portrayed as a shapeshifter, capable of transforming into various animal forms, symbolizing her deep connection to the natural world. In some myths, she is credited with the formation of mountains and valleys, sculpting the landscape with her ancient power.
