It is my first time to come across Brighde character, even the name. But overall, the three identities in one came out very good on the drawing. And indeed, you are very good with hair. The goddess' hair looks majestic, really fit for a goddess. Very good work of art!

Hello @macoolette! It's so great you came across to this Triple Goddess of Fire character through this post, is very representative of the Celtic Culture ~ 🌌 🔮

I'm so happy to know you liked it!, Thank you so much for saying so many lovely things about the hair, I really enjoyed the time drawing it ~ 💕

What about Celtic Culture that relates to the three goddesses? I am trying to relate Bride, Brigit and Brighde but I can't figure...

And what are the women doing on your gif above? I like their stuff though. 😃

✨ 🌷 ✨ Good Morning @macoolette ✨ 🌷 ✨

Yes, let me tell you more: The Celtic Mythology has the particular detail of having one single divine feminine principle.

This is the “Goddess of the Fire of Life, Forgiveness, Transmutation and Inspiration. Brigid is the Goddess of the inner fire of life, nature, and creation, and the Guardian of the Cauldron and the Chalice, as she spokes to the Priesthood of the Holy Grail. Her name means “Splendid”. Some also called her: Brigantia, Brid, Bride, Briginda, Brigdu, Bridget and Brigit (...)"

Brigid was considered the classical Celtic Triple Goddess, similar to the Triple Goddess of the Moon from Greek Mythology, where the deity is represented in the chronological three life stage of every woman (the maiden, the mother and the crone).

The oldest incarnation of the goddess is Breo-Saighit which means "Fiery Arrow". She was also known as Brigantia in the north of Great Britain. The goddess, also called "The Flame of Ireland" was associated with the perpetual sacred flames.

You can find a lot of information from spanish sources, sadly I don’t really know if there’s some in english or other languages: This are some interesting ones,, and also very useful.

And the final gif, is from a movie about Witches o7o)/🔮 🌌

Wow! That's a good background to have about Celtic mythology, yeah! I don't even think I ever heard that there is Celtic mythology. I only heard about Greek which we took part of it in high school.

Thanks for sharing all of these. 😊
