Brigit - Lady of the Irish Otherworld

Could Brigit Have Been Queen of the Leinster Fairies? Step into the mystical heart of Ireland and meet Brigit as you've never imagined her. We all know her as a goddess and a saint — but what if there's a deeper story? In her spellbinding new book, Pauline Breen reveals Brigit as a powerful fae woman and sovereign of the Irish Otherworld, a liminal force bridging the seen and unseen, the mortal and the magical. Drawing on ancient myths, folklore, and the sacred landscapes of Ireland, Breen illuminates a forgotten identity, one that stretches from the divine lineage of the Tuatha Dé Danann to the fairy mounds of the Sí, from the sacred fires of Croghan Hill to the holy wells of Kildare. Along the way, she uncovers Brigit's roles as psychopomp, smithcraft keeper and guardian of the cauldron of inexhaustible plenty. It's a journey through death, keening, fire and sacred geography, and it ends not in the past, but in living practice. Rituals, seasonal customs, and ways to meet Brigit as she once may have been: Queen of the Leinster Fairies.
