If you already know this then I apologise, but did you know that in the Scottish Lowlands we call this goddess the Carlin?

Wonderful! We haven't forgotten her I Canada, either. We just did a guided meditation to meet her in her cave! Hail Cailleach Bheur!

No Cailleach was responsible for the Scots who took part in the genocidal invasion of this place. No one with an english name had a damn thing to do with those mountains until a few hundred years ago.

@@susanpryor7400 really? Because if you bothered to search for videos where she’s just talking her accent is 100% different. The one she’s using in this video is affected and bizarre

@@bannedinchina I appreciate your reply - and I did - I have enjoyed many of her videos ... being a New Zealander where a multitude of accents are in the melting pot perhaps I just hear her differently ... so in all truth I do not notice any difference between this and other videos, however I respect that you do.
