The Cave of the Mórrígan
Síd ar Cruachán – The Mórrígan’s Cave… and Caves as Places of Power in Ireland
Get Access Now
Humans have long gone underground to do our sacred spiritual and magical world in this world, and connect to the Otherworld.
In this Class, we will examine Irish Caves as places of power through history – with a particular focus on Uaimh na gCait (the Cave of the Cats, Rathcroghan), known as the Síd ar Cruachán… the Mórrígan’s ‘fit abode’.
The Class will include a Guided Journey using my unique Irish Otherworld Journeys technique, in which we will visit the Mórrígan’s Cave.
You will get the unique perspective of a native Mórrígan Priestess, a Draoí who has studied Her lore directly, and lived right by the Mórrígan’s ‘fit abode’ for over a decade; guiding people – both physically and spiritually – on a daily basis, to seek the presence of the Great Queen.
The class includes 110 minutes of Teaching Presentation, then a separate Guided Journey (30 min) to connect to the Mórrígan directly – using Lora’s native Irish Otherworld Journeying method. This Class, and the Guided Journey, are suitable for beginners, as well as those with more experience in other traditions.
