Fionn Mac Chumaill. Warrior, Leader, Poet, Hero.

Exploring the Lore of Fionn in Irish Myth.

  Enroll in Course

Online Course exploring the lore of one of Ireland's most famous Heroes, Fionn Mac Cumhaill. This class will dive into the tales of old Ireland and see what is to learn about this complex and multi talented individual, with Dagda Bard and Priest, Jon O'Sullivan (An Scéalaí Beag).


There are few names that come readily to mind when we think of ancient Irish Heroes. That is not because there was any lack of epic struggles, terrible monsters, or incredible feats to perform. It is simply because there were so few who rose above the rest of the champions, warriors, and chieftains, to become forever immortalized in our ancient tales.


This course will be exploring some of the tales of one of the last great heroes of ancient Ireland, Fionn Mac Cumhaill. We will be diving into his origins, his boyhood deeds, his greatest trials against this and Otherworldly foes, and seeing what it was that made him so remarkable and memorable. There is much to learn from the stories of Fionn, not least of which is the mystical origins of one of his greatest abilities, and why he would regularly suck his thumb.


This Teaching is suitable for beginners, as well as those with more experience in this area, or in other traditions. You do not have to be dedicated to or working with any Irish Gods, Guides, or Guardians to take this class.

He runs a blog, posting monthly stories - inspired by the native lore (and sometimes directly dictated by Big D himself). His Patreon gives you early access to the tales, as well as having the stories told directly to you in the form of audio downloads. He lives with his family in County Waterford, Ireland. With his partner, Lora O'Brien, he is the co-founder of the Irish Pagan School.
"It's not always easy to find the words... but when you find the right words, you can change hearts and minds." - An Scéalaí Beag

Having little to no knowledge of the Irish pantheon of male deities, I felt that I stepped into a wonderful level of intimate experience and cultural background in a matter of a few paragraphs. From the warm and personable start to the mapping of the mythos landscape then to the examples of interlinking the Dagda to my own life journey, this is a rewarding turn down my own "path less taken." Thanks much!

Do I need to have Irish ancestry to study here?
No, absolutely not. We provide authentic connection to Ireland, with native or naturalised Irish teachers, for anyone who wishes to learn from us and is willing to put in the time and effort to do this properly... rather than grab a culturally appropriated quick fix.

Loved receiving this class from Jon! His approachable manner makes the lecture portion easy to take in and understand, and the content, including the resources he points learners to, will keep on giving. I'm queer and transmasculine, and so it's really important for me to learn about deities in the Irish tradition who present us with alternative models of masculinity. Thank you Jon and the IPS for bringing us this class!
