Rhiannon Daimon

It's in my rules and about but I'll post it here as well.

So why Rhiannon Daimon?

Well Rhiannon is a Celtic deity. The name means "Maid of Annwn," or it's older Gaulish/Welsh/ Cornish version means "great queen”. Rhiannon's original name is thought to be Rigatona (Gaulish), also meaning "great queen", indicating a much higher status in the Celtic pantheon than she enjoys today. Some sources say she was once a Sun Goddess.

Rhiannon is the goddess of birds and horses, enchantments, fertility, and the Underworld. She rides a swift white horse. Rhiannon is believed to be the Welsh counterpart of Gaulish horse goddess Epona. Her son, Pryderi, succeeded his father Pwyll as the ruler of Dyfed and of the otherworld.

She is the wife of Pwyll, and mother of Pryderi. Unjustly accused of destroying Her newborn son (who had been kidnapped by a nameless Fiend), She is compelled to take on the role of a horse, until Her son is unexpectedly returned to her. She is also considered as an aspect of the Irish Morrigan

In her guise as a death Goddess, Rhiannon could sing sweetly enough to lure all those in hearing to their deaths, and therefore she may be related to Germanic stories of lake and river faeries who sang seductively to lure sailors and fishermen to their deaths. In magick and ritual Rhiannon can aid in overcoming enemies, exercising patience, working magick, moon rituals and enhancing dream work.

Daimon: is an ancient Greek work. Depending on the sources you read the word means. Blessed of the gods, gift of the gods, minor god or goddess, or spirit of the gods.

The reason for the Celtic and Greek mix is because those are the two pagan religions that I like the most. And they suit each other quite well as I myself am not a goddess but I do have what would have been called the gifts. These gifts being able to read cards and dreams. (see the about me for more details.)
