Dangerous Goddesses: Brigid, Hekate, and The Mórrígan,

This is a Free In-Person Event at Banyen Books in Vancouver.

When is a goddess bad, good, or misunderstood? What if a goddess is a little bit of each? Can a fertility goddess be vengeful? Would a death goddess offer comfort? Contemporary goddess worship is quick to label goddesses as "dark" or "light," without considering the nuances and context of the era from which they originated. By looking at the powerful contradictions within Brigid, Hekate, and The Morrigan, we will explore the "scarier" parts of these three goddesses, and discuss the importance of becoming comfortable with these aspects both in the goddesses and in ourselves.
