"Cet ouvrage est une introduction élémentaire au culte de la déesse Brigid, qui se concentre sur son histoire et son mythe, ainsi que sur sa dévotion et son culte modernes. Se focalisant principalement sur la déesse irlandaise, le livre inclue également une discussion sur ses apparitions dans le reste du monde celte, en particulier en Écosse. Ses différentes apparitions dans la mythologie sont mises en relation avec la transformation de la déesse païenne en une sainte catholique. Les méthodes modernes permettant aux néopaïens de se connecter et d'honorer cette déesse populaire incluent des méditations et des offrandes, ainsi que des anecdotes personnelles tirées des expériences de l'auteure.

"Qui était Brigid chez les païens préchrétiens ? Qui est-elle et que représente-t-elle aujourd'hui pour les païens modernes ? Comment tisser les liens entre l'ancienne et la nouvelle déesse païenne ? Pour trouver la réponse à ces questions, découvrez les mythes de Brigid chez les païens irlandais, les histoires de Bride en Écosse et la façon dont les gens honorent aujourd'hui cette divinité puissante et si importante..."

Book: "Pagan Portals - Brigid: Meeting the Celtic Goddess of Poetry, Forge, and Healing Well" by Morgan Daimler

This is an EXCELLENT book.

I have read it cover to cover, and have seen nothing else that comes close to it in clearly and briefly presenting the facts and confusions around the goddess Brigit. (Not the saint. Different book.)

I can't recommend it highly enough.

From the publisher's website:

Pagan Portals - Brigid is a basic introduction to the Goddess Brigid focusing on her history and myth as well as her modern devotion and worship. Primarily looking at the Irish Goddess but including a discussion of her Pan-Celtic appearances, particularly in Scotland. Her different appearances in mythology are discussed along with the conflation of the pagan Goddess with Catholic saint. Modern methods for neopagans to connect to and honor this popular Goddess include offerings and meditation, and personal anecdotes from the author's experiences are included as well.

Who was Brigid to the pre-Christian pagans? Who is she today to neopagans? How do we re-weave the threads of the old pagan Goddess and the new? Learn about Brigid's myths among the pagan Irish, the stories of Bride in Scotland, and the way that people today are finding and honoring this powerful and important deity to find the answer.
