Mythology & Fiction Explained can u do a video on the morrogan

Cernunnos goes as far back as ancient Babylon and Sumer. He was first known as Enki - Lord of the earth, and the creator of all life, even us

Mythology & Fiction Explained can you please explain Morrigan, please?!

Have you ever seen the Indus Valley civilization's seals? There is a seal with a horned man sitting between two animals; I am not saying there is any proven link, but it is interesting to ponder the possibility that there is one. Also can you do a video on the Hindu mythological God Shiva, I am interested to see a video on him. I am not Hindu, but I am interested to see information on the different ancient cultures of the world.

I wonder if he knew something nobody else knew

Considering the Celts ranged from Ireland to Turkiye, this isn't super out there, but also, Wicca as a religion was founded in the 30s, so it's likely he was a follower of Wicca. As Czechoslovakia would follow an entirely different kind of polytheism

Still it wasn't right what he did to your bunghole.

Oh my!! Utterly magnificent!!

The Romans started the destruction of Celtic culture. It was an easy way of showing that the people they destroyed weren't worth saving.

Actually we know lots of celtic culture... We only don't know, that we know about it. I'm from austria and almost all of our todays culture and folkore is celtic with a "christian filter". sorry for my bad english

GizAArts lol dont appologise was better than many native comments 😊 at least you bother learning a second language no need to appologise to those too lazy n arrogant

@Underdawgification what? there's ample archaeological evidence of large earthworks central to celtic culture

Thats why i love supernatural or mythological comics or stories like hellboy bprd etc.. most mythology in media is greek and Egyptian and norse...you gotta look deeper for the more interesting stuff to which i gladly do so

True, but the antler associated with ithyphallic powers was common across the ancient world…so I wouldn’t make too much about the differences here.

I 100% agree

Also, deer antler and especially antler velvet is used as natural viagra. Velvet is the main ingredient in Extenz.

@@jeffatwood9417 thats so interesting. I never knew any of this, does it ever make you hate Christians? I really start to hate them when they shuve it down my throat.

@@alishajellison2571 when I was young, yes. Then i eventually realized that they don’t know anything more than the programming from Roman imperialism, transferred into European feudalism and mercantile colonialism. My mother once showed me how my hatred was no different than what I complained about! I had to really look at myself and realize my Ásatrú teachers were also influenced by the hatred. That’s why I got my BA in Religious Studies. Mindfulness has brought me to see the root of true human spirituality, and the failures of animalistic dogmas of control.

Say you swear

@@wheelsx1823 say your a knob

@@davetravelingheritage5403 lol now i call bullshit. Nobody believes this shit.

Wow, looks like the spirit of Cernunnos did guide you home. Looks like Cernunnos did saw something within you, so he guided you home.

I do. I in fact am head of the order it self. Those who no nothing should say far less than nothing.

The beast who was fighting the ravaged monsters known as fairies

A fluffy walking corpse

I’d like to know more honestly. This story is truly fascinating.

It makes sense that he would carry the sun through the underground, like a god of the underworld/death, then release it come morning.

Thought it was Janus

Your description sounds like Ra

I have never found Nature difficult to understand. Birth, Death, rebirth. Survival of the fittest, Nature & Nurture, All boils down to one simple rule. Survival. Nature removes that which cannot thrive, to pave the way for that which can. Or such is my own understanding of it. I lay no claim to any expertise or superior wisdom on the matter. I read, & think on the matter, & glean what I can. I am ever open to learning new understanding of such matters. While I do not hold with "gods" as Actual existant beings, the symbolism of Cernunnos does make most sense to me & has a draw to me as a focus of the Natural Cycle.

​​@@pfalky2k Most people see natural selection as a ruthless cruelty, but in nature the beings who are weak and suffer are killed fairly quickly. They don't suffer for long(there are always exception, I know). In our modern industrial society we think long lifespans are a positive thing, we drag out and prolong suffering. We call this ethical, but it isn't always. We also allow suffering people to survive with technology, and their suffering is transmitted down through generations. So it continues from person to person instead of being dealt with. In nature these weaknesses are removed, and animals die quickly. So much suffering is spared. Nature is very merciful if you look at her the right way. Looking at nature this way requires a certain selfless and mature mindet. As well as an enlightened perspective.

I call him something else but he's basically who I worship

What made you start to worship him.

All hail Cernunnos, Lord of the Wild.

I know this is a comment from a year ago, but i have a thought, Cernunnos have been around my mind and making his presence really strong in my life lately, but everytime i notice him, i get the urge to cry, to smile and bow to him, his presence is usually like that? I follow The morrigan and i'm new to Dagda wich is a lot calmer than Morrigan, so i'm used to striking signs of them, is Cernunnos like that? Thank you.

Your experience is so much like mine too! He’s the first male god that I’ve felt really drawn to, and I were also raised Christian as well. Blessed be and may Cernnunos blessings be with you 🧿

Hes reached out to me aswell i feel like he like to help those that love and respect nature

I met him once during a mushroom trip, and he indeed is as you describe.

Less likely, as there were other welsh gods who were seen as guards to the dead, and while the other world and underworld are similar, they are not the same. An example my friend gave me is a d&d example, where the otherworld is more to the fey wild, and the underworld is more like the shadow fel, albeit more friendly, and less shadowy. One is also more for the gods and fairies, and has more living and dead, and the other is the almost complete opposite. Plus, arawn didn't have horns.

Ceenunos is arawn half brother both children of siahm

Britush celt? So worshipped by celt tribes living in modern day England? Whose modern day descendents still living there.

but he is also associated as Merlin (although his real name is different) Merlin is a title. He's been associated with this Horned God. That's how I ended up here

Isn’t welsh just a subsection of Celtic

Rudra "the howler"

Thanks for sharing that's very helpful. The Greek name for 'void' is chaos, this was their first God, from which the rest descend. I found before that Lord Shiva has a name or title meaning the Void. I like your description of the rest being manifested or incarnated instead of given birth. In the Greek next is Uranus (sky) then Chronos (time) then zeus (light) then hermes (origin/embodiment of word) then last Pan which name and title is the 'sum total of all words/spells. I note zeus was part of a trinity which included hades which I think of as a destroyer 🕉

@Trevor Philips But the Indus-Valley civilization was before the Indo-European migrations?

Oh no, not the Hinducentrists. 🙄

@farorin I guess that's plausible. Haven't looked into that. Is there any specific evidence to look into?

In Eldenring there's a couple of Deer bosses which are inspired by Cernunnos,ya might want to check it out.Its one of my favorite bossfights in the game.

I remember playing Folklore! Oh good memories! I had forgotten about Cernunnos in there though! Makes me want to play it again...

@@Kelleeart I wish they'd re-release it on the Switch. Kingdoms of Amalur made it on the Switch, so why not Folklore?

Harshdeep Singh this. I absolutely love this. I have so much to say but I can’t seem to put it into words. But I will say that what you said is what proves to me that I am on the correct path. ❤️

Oh yes, the Indians invented everything, yawn. 🙄

Because we are one, genetically speaking as well. The cultural 'broken telephone'/'Chinese whispers'phenomenon. Cradle of (human) life is in what we call Africa, the Cradle of (human) civilization is considered to be Mesopotamian / what we consider fertile crescent /Middle East in our times.

Well indo europeans spread them across and merged with the indigenous peoples

Well the snakes in the neck also resembles

Sounds like the god is calling to you.

I felt the same way. Cernunnos has definitely called out to me and I was honored to answer.

Same! I am very drawn to him ♥️

I felt drawn to him. Celtics are part of my ancestry, but my ancestors were converted to Christianity generations ago. I’ve always wondered if Cernunnos or someone else was who my ancestors worshipped before Christianity drove itself in.

Some say that it was a representation of Shiva also

I dreamt of him before I ever knew of him, anything about him or his existence. There was a guide lady (she was in some khaki uniform) who told me he's been known by 4 names throughout history in different places but he is all the same. I'm not saying bc my dream that confirms that as some kind of fact. Just a damned strong push of my intuition saying it makes sense and is so. I can't prove it, idk if anyone could yet.. or anymore. But I absolutely think it is one in the same. Edit Oh & he was huge, as big as a large cliff. He was awakening, shaking himself loose so it was extremely loud & scared me so I flew back a ways and that was when she stated yelling over the noise, telling me about him. I couldn't catch it all but I remembered enough to research it in the morning. I found this, after asking a couple friends I thought might know his name, at least one.

There is a Hindu deity similar to Cernunnos, he has horns/antlers too. Don’t remember his name though.

Look up five points in Birmingham

dagwood953 thank you

Weirdo?

That's so cool, thanks for sharing. Only yesterday, I first came across Cernunnos - then today I just happen across this video. Synchronicity?

@Life With Honor Fantasies is all there is. If you don't know this, you are in an early stage of your cycle as a soul. To elder spirits (often known as shamans in this world), this is a "fact". "You" don't exist. Nothing of that which you see, touch or hear, exists. It's all an elaborated fantasy, created by the source. If you wan't to call i this source "God", be my guest. I see it for what it is: My home. My origin. And about christianity. I won't debate you about this belief, it's within your right, but any entity become stronger if you believe in it. So did the entities religious people awoke thousands of years ago. But these entities, that obviously claim themselves to be gods, angels or prophets, are just entities like you and me, but with the exception of receiving power from millions of other entities around them. Be careful what you believe in, it will shape your reality. I've taken side before, until I saw the horror this caused. I know now why elder spirits tend not to choose side anymore. Why they choose solitude.

It's gonna happen. The earth is aching and paganism is all about being attuned with the earth, Christians think worshiping nature is a sin bc the Abrahamic god wants them to worship only him.

@@issamissa902 yeah, the irony is that, this is exactly what a true demon would want people to do. If I'm not mistaken, the bible even describes true evil (demons), and looking over the age of the abrahamic God, the description fits "him" perfectly. That's pretty much why I left christianity behind already in my teens. No entity of light needs someone to worship them. They'll help whenever the wish is pure. That ignite admiration, not fear. And I am fascinated that christians (and muslims) cannot see the difference ...

@@Aracne80 I couldn't agree more. I am so happy to see people are waking up.

@@issamissa902 More and more are. Still, in a greater perspective there might be a reason for it. It could mean that a cycle is coming to an end. We'll just have to see. No fear. :)

The Portugués have Celtic blood. The celts were all over the Iberian peninsula

The range of Celts is vast and includes Germany and Portugal. Celtic is not exclusive to the British Isles, like Ireland, Scotland and Wales- it's much larger than that! And if you feel a pull, follow it! 🤗 No shame in that!

It is encoded in our DNA. Never stop following your path for connection. It is a way to connect with our ancestors.

You can definitely feel a connection to a culter you weren't nessasery born into. I know a few native Americans who follows native American spirituality and Norse heathenry.

CELTIC was all over Europe, not just the British Isles... Annoying asf when the Scots and Irish try to claim they have "Celtic Blood"... CELTIC is a CULTURE NOT RACE

Oh also lil tidbit! He's associated with being very Liminal, kind of everything & nothing all at the same time, both materialistic and natural wealth, so on & so forth. His roots are quite interesting

Native American (going back a long way) called this land AMARU KA meaning- land of the serpent. In Ohio is the largest serpent mound actually called SERPENTS MOUND....located in ADAMS county Ohio. In Chinese OHIO means HELLO. Its also widely argued that the Appalachian Mountains are the OLDEST in the world. I most certainly see enough proof that they are. So if this land was once known as Amaru Ka then its highly doubtful that it's named after Amerigo Vespucci. However the Native American God is the Great Spirit. It is noted a great deal. Thing is, what if we came here. Chinese and other Asian countries worship serpents and the Appalachian region is the land of the serpent. So did mankind begin here? In sure Adams County Ohio was named after Adams the U.S. president but it could be because of Serpents mound. With Adams being so connected to the elite plan he could have very well made it Adams county to symbolize that Serpents mound is where Adam gobbled up the forbidden fruit. Just saying. There is so much evidence that America is the oldest land. The U.S. has the largest and most Serpent Mounds and they worship serpents in Asia who has none. A replica of noahs arc was built next to the town I live in, in Dry Ridge Ky. Could be symbolism that Noah built his arc there

I am Native American (hunkpapa Lakota) we have so much knowledge to share with the world. I really wish more people would be open to understanding our way of life. It is a beautiful, good way.

another friend -we didn’t worship gods. We have a great reverence for nature. We do have a saying “mitakuye oyasin” -we are all related. Meaning, we are all connected...from the rocks on the ground to the birds in the sky everything has a purpose. Even stones are called “grandfathers” as they have been here for ages and have seen many things. We bring them into the sweat lodge and they help us to purify. You see everything Creator has made is never taken for granted and we always give thanks. There is SO MUCH TO LEARN AND TEACH... I would love to tell you more, sorry I write this quickly.

@@derekboyles9330 What the fuck are you going on about? "Native American (going back a long way) called this land AMARU KA meaning- land of the serpent" This makes zero sense. There is no "Native American" culture, that is like trying to say "Asian (going back a long way) called this land ZHONG TI meaning- land of the serpent" ...like wtf? What language? What land? Who is this? Are you talking about Han, Japanese, Mongolian, Tibetan, Ainu, who? Mi'kmaq, Omàmwinini, Wolastoqiyik, Eeyou, Kanien'keha:ka, Anishinaabek, who? Stop pedalling this nonsense, please!

Actually the mounds where built by the Mississippi river tribes who where ruled over by God kings. They definitely believed in the connection between all things but it wasn't like they where actively worshipping snakes. Most tribes believed in the Great Spirit many still do. Certain tribes though actually had different dieties associated with different things. For example Chaac the mayan rain God.

BTIsaac how? I have my disagreements with Wicca but I wouldn’t call wiccans themselves a joke

BTIsaac you could say the same to any religion. Just because you don’t agree with the beliefs doesn’t mean it’s a scam.

BTIsaac all religions are technically made up, whilst satanism was obviously a reaction to Christianity, Wicca is not. in fact the founder of Wicca had a reverence for Christianity. Gardernerian Wicca also does not claim to date back to the celts. It traces itself to a new forest witchcraft coven which he based the religion off.

BTIsaac to say it has no tradition is quite untrue though, I agree that Wicca is quite popular, amongst the young especially but Wicca is a theistic religion important not to forget that. It also does have a multitude of philosophies and beliefs many of which I disagree with but to say it has none is untrue.

BTIsaac to an extent yes but many will remain Wiccan, it seems to me that Wicca is a gateway to other forms of religion rather than something most people remain as. I agree with you their.

Errol Stone i very much doubt that ur sect is leader of all pagans worldwide. ive been researching druidry albeit uk based n never heard of your group. i think i would have if ur claims of leading all pagans worldwide were true

@@kimwarburton8490 Then you know and have learned absolutely nothing. You Neo-Pagans know nothing of the old ways. So keep it to your self.

A friend of mine told me that all forests worldwide are connected. What kind of forest spirits are you aware of? I'm in the process of awakening and although I'm not privy of druid knowledge, Im very curious. There's a single olive tree in a forest of oaks and pine trees under my house and I don't know what to think of it

@@7dnein944 mycellium (from mushrooms) connects to all living plants and trees. it's their version of the internet n yes every inch of soil contains mycellium. A plants' 'brain' is in it's roots where it connects in a symbiotic form with mycellium (which helps bring nutrients n water to the roots) every living thing has energy/spirit, else it wouldnt be alive XD

Errol Stone I’m quite new to paganism and I’d love to learn more about the old ways but how does one group of people rule or govern all pagans worldwide? That seems too similar to the pope and the church 😕

Yes, probably Rudra in ancient India.

One of the first, if not the first, yeah. He's gone by different names, so we don't even know for sure if those other deities are different ones or just him in another form.

Under a different name, Pā2usïôn, but yes.

i think through trade and the proximity of cultures, each region adopted their own version of the "horned god of the wild/animals" archetype. one cool aspect of this is that each culture gave him horns of local animals. cernunnos had deer antlers, but pan had goat horns because theres no deer in greece. idk i just find it interesting.

I think Pushan

@@Goetia544 those damn fairies

EarthmeisterIndigo most indo European Gods are.

I think the same. Horned gods of the forest appear in greek/roman, keltic, slavic and may other mytholigies. So the concept has to habe been around for a very long time

@@carydorse705 he is hermes / mercury ... he is the god of the bankers, commerce, trading, travel, bla bla ... he is the black sheep or goat, he is the black headed jackal or anubis or the ibis/thoth / tehuti, both he and venus take it in turns to be the morning and evening star, he is also st christopher, moses, buddah, mithraz and just about every other god youve ever heard of ... along side saturn they have loooots of names, he is the fish/goat , pan , kristna, kali, merlin, hermes trismigistus, the hermit, hermes comes from root kermes meaning seed/kernal/cocco/kokko .. and also kermit ... no bull , there is a frog called mercurana or something ... lives on a myr tree!! ... the frog shape goes back to the plasma formations in the sky ... or it was known as a 8 leg spider ..... kwermi is also the root of the word worm, hence he is also known to be a serpent .... there is a coccus/kokkos worm (look it up) that is used for red dye for dying ram skins!;).... In verse 6 of Psalm 22, Jesus says something odd: “But I am a worm, and no man.” ...lol ... Also when your thinking of the character Moseskeep this in mind ... ( The Greek historian Herodotus was familiar with frankincense and knew it was harvested from trees in southern Arabia. He reported that the gum was dangerous to harvest because of venomous snakes that lived in the trees. He goes on to describe the method used by the Arabs to get around this problem, that being the burning of the gum of the styrax tree whose smoke would drive the snakes away.[19] Theophrastus mentions the resin, as does Pliny the Elder in his Naturalis Historia.) the list goes on and on .... good luck ;)

Yes, Pashupati 7:01 is considered to be a very old god, who was worshipped by the Indus Valley culture. Possibly going back as far as 12,000 years (if you subscribe to the theory of the existance of pre-catastrophe coastal civilizations).

@Col. George S. Patton, Sr. wait wasn't baphomet invented by the church in order to condamn the templars?

Ocean Keltoi I'm also a reconstructionist Pagan/Heathen, though I worship the gods of the Norse. I do find Celtic belief to be extremely intriguing, & I'd love to know more about it.

I'd suggest reading Ronald Hutton on Celtic religious history. Start with any of his books. He's a very accessible history writer.

So basically you're worshiping a Gaulish God.

hi! i thought i'd mention., those well-depicted buck -horns and fallos symbolism brought to my mind the bock family saga, told by ior bock.. maybe a saga hard to believe, but very well told, and it goes through ages..

Is cernonnos and sionus the same being?

Well, if you come here, you can always give me an oral tradition followed by a baptising of your face.

This is helpful. Do you have a source you could point us to, on the documentation by the prisoner?

What do you mean by 'follow'

Except there are other horned gods, and he is named pan, a horned god with GOAT/RAM horns, and cares for humans. While cernnunos has DEER horns, and DOESN'T care for humans, and wears a torc. "Too strong not to be", yeah, I am sorry, don't think so. They are similar, but not the same.

@@zionthedragon8866 when you meet Pan it's honestly very hard to say exactly what animal the horns belong to. The being is male and female, human and nature, spiritual and earthly. Although there are many legends which spring up and different languages, the name and attributes are generally universal. one way to tell they're the same is to see how they get drawn, in my encounter Pan was sat cross legged. Although, I did not witness the serpent, that is how the scene is depicted 🕉

@@grantaum9677 what do you mean, when you meet him? He isn't real, he fictitious, also, I am going as what is depicted, and it's not hard to see what animal horns he has. And since he(pan) is described as male, and is depicted with him and his followers, it's safe to assume pan and cernnunos is a MALE. And just because a concept is universal, doesn't mean they are all the same being. Just because you have a sun god, doesn't mean all sun gods are the same. And again, you may believe what you want, but I am going off of real life historical facts of the mythos, and artwork and recordings of the god from PRE-NEO pagan times.

@@zionthedragon8866 Do more research before acting like some sort of paragon of knowledge on the subject.

@@justeremiahsjourney Maybe you should do some actual research, and not research through neo pagans, and emotional reasoning. If you look at the etymology of his name, and the artwork that depicts him, it is clear he is male. Also, that the gods compared to him are male, if any person with common sense, can easily put two and two together to know he is a dude.
