From the Celtic Myth and Magick collection by Jessica Galbreth comes Arianrhod, an 11" by 17" poster that would be a fantastic addition to the room of anyone who loves Celtic lore and feminine strength. Arianrhod was one of the major Celtic Goddesses, known often as the goddess of the silver wheel. Worshipped as a goddess of feminine power, fertility, and the moon, Arianrhod played a very important part in Celtic mythology. Here the artist depicts her against the backdrop of an ancient Celtic wheel, representing her affinity with reincarnation. Also before her is a snowy owl, regal as it takes flight, representing the ancient wisdom for which she was known. Gazing into the distance and seeing things we can only guess at, her silver hair is adorned with stalks of wheat, while the staff upon which she leans is topped by a large moonstone-both the moon stone and the wheat stalks being common symbols of her divinity.
