"The Mysterious Castle"(From
the book "Rhiannon
: Goddess of The Birth Moon")By : Deborah Susan Jones : Editor An ancient Myth &
Legend . . . . . .Great Queen Rhiannon,
Cymric, Brythonic and a Triple Goddess.Time passes.Pryderi has grown to
be a man.One day, while out
hunting, he spies a magnificent white boar and pursues
it.During the chase, he
comes upon a mysterious magical castle and enters to see
what lays within.Some time later,
Rhiannon, worrying why her son has not returned, makes
to find him and she too stumbles across the
castle. And is frozen, and . .
. . . .Associated with
otherworldly birds, their melody singing across the
waters in the Happy Isles of the Blessed, the sweetest
sound ever heard by any mortal ear and every other tune
seemed unlovely beside it, a wondrous song to wake the
dead, and send the living to sleep, and horses, both
accompanying the dead on their journey to the next
world, known from the chief prose literature of medieval
Wales, the Mabinogi.She is associated with
horses and has otherworldly birds in her possession.The cult of the horse
had deep meaning in the Iron Age and Romano-British
period. There are suggestions that as a tribal ceremony,
a royal figure symbolically copulated with a horse which
was then sacrificed, dismembered and devoured by the
ritual revelers.Deborah
