The Morrigan Pagan Rosary

The Morrigan is a powerful goddess in Irish mythology, often associated with war, fate, and sovereignty. She is part of the Tuatha Dé Danann, a supernatural race of gods and goddesses, and is frequently depicted as a shape-shifter. As a goddess of battle and death, The Morrigan foretells the outcome of conflicts, guiding warriors and influencing the tide of war. However, her role extends beyond destruction—she embodies transformation, prophecy, and the delicate balance between life and death.

Her energy is intense, untamable, and deeply connected to the cycles of nature. She represents not only the chaos and violence of war but also the renewal that comes after. The Morrigan's influence reaches into the shadows, guiding those who seek her wisdom through difficult truths and transformative experiences. As a figure of sovereignty  and prophecy, she stands for personal empowerment, calling on individuals to embrace their inner strength, face their fears, and acknowledge the inevitability of change. Her energy is both a storm and the guiding force through it—fierce yet purposeful, dark yet transformative.

I crafted this one of a kind pagan rosary for you to connect with her. Every bead was selected to hold deep meaning. You can carry this with you at all times and/or keep on your altar for devotional work. All crystal beads are natural AA sized 8mm & 6mm. Around 11.5in long (from charm to charm).

Just like that scene with eowyn realizing aragorn is a legit grandpa but with legolas and the rest of the walkers instead.

Legolas: i never had the pleasure of having a conversation with the man, but from the brief glimpses of (insert boromir’s ancestor from 1000 years ago here) that i saw, he was an honorable man.

Boromir, bluescreening: yes, he was known as quite the chivalrous man. But for you to have met him you must be at least a thousand years old!

Legolas: *clicks tongue and doesn’t say anything with an amused smile*

Aragorn, who has gone through all these emotions already: older.

Gimli: Older?? Are you telling me that this beardless, pointy elf with a face of a teenager is, what? 2000?

Aragorn: more.

Gimli: MORE???

Merry: if he is close to 3000 years than he was probably born around the last war for the ring!

Legolas, enjoying this all immensely: i was old enough to fight in it actually.

Pippin: alright, so legolas is 3000 and a few centuries. That’s a lot older than i thought to be honest. He looked like the youngest elf in rivendale.

Legolas: i’m 4000, actually.

Gimli: GODDAMN IT! I knew we shouldn’t trust these babyfaced point ears! You can’t even tell their age!

Legolas: if it makes you feel better, other elves also have a hard time discerning the age of silvans. They’ve routinely thought of mine to be millenia younger that we actually are.

“The world is indeed full of peril, and in it there are many dark places; but still there is much that is fair, and though in all lands love is now mingled with grief, it grows perhaps the greater.”

And this:

"'I wish it need not have happened in my time,' said Frodo.

'So do I,' said Gandalf, 'and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.'"

And this:

"I do not love the bright sword for its sharpness, nor the arrow for its swiftness, nor the warrior for his glory. I love only that which they defend."

And this:

“Many that live deserve death and some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be so eager to deal out death in judgement. For even the wise cannot see all ends."

And this:

“True courage is about knowing not when to take a life, but when to spare one.”

And clearly they were all written partly because he survived the war, because of what he’d seen and done and learned. But at the same time the unwillingness to lose faith, the courage and strength that this man had to believe in these things after going through hell! It makes the nihilists look so cheap, so uninteresting! People who’ve went through concentration camps and wars believe in humanity anyway, isn’t that proof that hope and love exist? And many, many, many of them did not return or returned broken and cruel and traumatised to the point when no faith in others was possible for them, and nobody can blame them. But there were many who refused to lose faith and hope. They have seen some of the worst that life has to offer and came back believing that we shouldn’t be eager to deal out death in judgement and should love only that which the sword defends.
