A Chairde, Friends,
What a beautiful myth and movement class under the full moon in Libra where we ventured into the tale of Fedelm the Prophetess and metabolised this through our bodies to explore the seer, the oracle within.
This story was the very first Imbas Dispatch that I shared on Substack, so you will also have access to it here:
A few words that I mentioned in Irish…
Táin Bó Cúailnge, ‘The Cattleraid of Cooley’ (a peninsula in Co. Louth)
Queen Medb and the warrior, Cú Chulainn
Sous as ‘scientific knowledge’ and Imbas as ‘wisdom that illuminates’ (or otherworldly sight)
‘Dall can mean dark, obscure, and the words caech and goll are used for blind in one eye… Blindness can be either real or stimulated.’ - Muireann Ní Bhrolcháin, An Introduction to Early Irish Literature
