Temple of Brighid™
Priestess Training
Who is Brighid?
In Irish Mythology, Brighid is the daughter of An Dagda, the great Father God of the Tuatha Dé Danaan. It is speculated by some that her mother is the Goddess Boann of the sacred River Boyne. Some say she is daughter of Danu, others say the Mórrígán, but certainly she is of Divine Feminine lineage.
Brighid means Exalted One.
She is Goddess of the Forge, of Healers and of Poets.
As Patroness of Poets, she opens the doors of inspiration and to communication between the worlds.
Brighid is known by many names, including Lady of the Shore, Lady of the Sea, Goddess of the Flame, Fiery Arrow, Brighid of the Mantle. She is the Protectress of Women and Children, especially of women in childbirth.
No other western Goddess has demonstrated such enduring veneration as Brighid. She embodies An Spiroad Naomh, the Divine Feminine and the all encompassing emanation of Divine Mother. From ancient times to her later adoption as Saint, she is venerated all over the world.
Celtic Priestess
What does the word Priestess awaken in you? Something mysterious, a yearning? Something you can't quite explain, something calling to your soul?
It may be calling to you from across many lifetimes, calling you to reconnect and awaken to your Divine Feminine mission now.
As surely as the wave meets the shore, this call will pull you back to Her.
Would you like to:
- Connect with the Goddess and discover what this means for you in this lifetime?
- Discover who Brighid is in relation to Mother, Maiden Crone and her many other forms?
- Discover other Celtic, (particularly Irish) Goddesses and Gods?
- Discover Brighid’s correlation with her Goddess counterparts in other cultures from around the world?
- Learn the difference between Sacred Circle and Temple Space as we work with both?
- Deepen your connection to ancient Irish traditions?

Working with the Sacred Land
Gatherings will include visits to Ancient Sites, guidance into a deeper connection with the Ogham Trees, identifying and working with herbs and plants in season, visits to Sacred Wells and other liminal places associated with Brighid and many other Irish Gods and Goddesses.
I like to investigate churches/cathedrals that have sonic resonance/sacred geometry too. These visits are optional- includes dowsing.
