Sorting my Brythonic Pantheon
I've been overwhelmed since getting into Celtic Paganism with all the many goddesses I feel drawn to but don't feel like I can be devoted to all of them. So I've done my best to decide on the main ones, keeping it to seven and corresponding as best I can to the days of the week.
I'm sticking to the five Welsh goddesses of the Avalonion tradition, lead by Jhenah Telyndru, along with two other Brythonic deities.
Sunday: Rhiannon. I view Her as the closest thing to a 'matriarch' or High Queen. She is connected to Modron, the Divine Mother, as well as the Dawn, so it seems fitting for Her day to be the start of the week.
Monday: Arianrhod. Though her connection to the Moon is a modern invention, I still feel it resonates with me, I also honour Her as the eternal Virgin (in defiance of Gwydion's mockery).
Tuesday: Blodeuwedd. Probably not a goddess people associate with Mars or 'Vikhelic' energies, but to me she is a goddess of passion and her owl-huntress form is as fierce as any warrior deity.
Wednesday: Cerridwen. Mam yr Awen. Lady of initiation, inspiration, transformation. She has the biggest Teacher energy to Her.
Thursday: Sulis. Goddess of Justice, linked to Minerva. I debated between keeping her or Brighid in my practice, especially as Brighid is linked to the other non-Welsh goddess in my path. But I just have a stronger bond with Sulis if having to pick a 'solar' goddess.
Friday: Branwen. A goddess of love in many forms, compassion and hope. I debated between Bloduewedd and Branwen for this day but I call to Branwen more for opening my heart despite the world's attempts to freeze it.
Saturday. The Cailleach. Grounding, temperance, the Crone. I grew very close to An Cailleach over this Winter and see Her as a form of the Dark Mother, as old as time itself.
So Dôn and Modron, who were part of my practice, are still present in a sense via Rhiannon's link to Modron, and Arianrhod being the daughter of Dôn. Creiddylad, who I was feeling called to, is still there but more through her link to Gwyn ap Nudd - there's no separating those two it seems. Andraste is the only one I've kind of stepped away from, feeling closer to Blodeuwedd as my 'Vikhelic' goddess - but I still may call on Her if need be and She is very much tied to were I live.

Why did Celts of the British Isles build over 4000 hill forts during the Iron Age? The answer may have something to do with the conflict between those Bronze Age cowboys who maintained traditional pastoralist transhumance lifestyles, and those in the forts who depended more on arable farming. This can also explain why British Celts were the most lactose tolerant people on Earth at that time. In this documentary I visited Barbury Castle in Wiltshire, Castle an Dinas in Cornwall and several other magnificent Iron Age hill forts.

If you're going to bat for regions and nations called celtic, take a second and remember that's MORE than just gaelic nations, lol, brythonic groups (cornish, Welsh, breton) need as much support and solidarity.
