Goddess of the Day: October 23

brandiauset:

Branwen - Welsh Goddess of Beauty and Love.  One of the five Goddesses of Avalon, Branwen
translates as white raven, or white breasted.  She is a Maiden Goddess of sovereignty,
springtime, and inspiration.  The
daughter of the sea, Branwen releases mistreated wives from bondage, and
blesses them with a new beginning.  She
is the embodiment of vitality and freedom.
Depicted as a beautiful young woman, Branwen is thought to be Venus, or
the Morning Star.  All birds and the
waxing moon are Her symbols.
