The Morrigan is a perplexing figure to make clear sense of for the reasons that all Celtic mythology is similarly perplexing: it was part of an oral tradition that was only recorded in the medieval period after the believers in the Morrigan had long since disappeared. Unlike the fairly extensive record of the Greco-Roman deities, the references to the Morrigan and her fellow Celtic gods are far more scant. The fact that Celtic deities were often triple-natured and that their aspects could take on or subsume different names further complicates the project of pinning down exactly who the Morrigan was to the members of her cult. But we're going to see how far we can go in identifying the lore association with the Morrigan and what we can properly say about the goddess.
