Reflections of one god

The characters

Seven figures drawn from Celtic, Greek and Anglo-Saxon mythology. Each one lights up a different side of the Horned God: his solar half, his memory, his gift for being reborn.

The Horned God, a dark stag-skulled figure against a green background

The hero

The Horned God

He is not, strictly speaking, a deity of Celtic mythology, but a figure pieced together from many: a descendant of Cernunnos and other pagan gods, born out of neopaganism and Wicca. The embodiment of the cycles of life and death and of the sacred masculine, he is old, very old, and weary of it all. Attached to the old traditions in a world that no longer worships him, he withers as the forests shrink, until the god himself no longer quite knows what he once was, and sets out to remake himself in the modern age.

Aria, a sylph with long white hair adorned with yellow flowers and wide eyes

The sylph

Aria

A sylph of the air, Aria belongs to the invisible folk, alongside nymphs, dryads and their kin. Eager, stubborn and irresistible, she is a genuine breath of fresh air, a whirlwind of love. She is the one who pushes the Horned God to keep going.

Brigid, a goddess with long white hair against a pink background

The mother goddess

Brigid

She draws on the Irish Triple Goddess of fire, the forge and poetry. She embodies the feminine principle of the world in all its fullness: a Mother Goddess, the earth made flesh, creator and protector. Both mother and wife to the Horned God, she waits patiently for his return.

Pan, a horned satyr holding his reed pipes against an ochre background

The sunlit side

Pan

The Greek god of pastures and wild places, half man, half goat, with his reed pipes. While the Horned God despairs, Pan plays his music and dances. Irrepressibly alive, he still finds ways to enjoy what life has to offer, even now that the world has changed.

The Green Man, a face of green foliage surrounded by golden butterflies

The survivor

The Green Man

A Celtic and Anglo-Saxon figure of rebirth and living things, reshaped over the centuries and absorbed by Christianity, yet never truly erased. He adapted, and he survived. More at home in the modern world than the Horned God, he is proof that the sacred endures even as traditions change.

The Crone, a wise old woman with long luminous white hair

The wise woman of winter

The Crone

In Celtic tradition, the Crone is the face of the wise old woman within the Triple Goddess. She embodies winter, the dark moon, the end of cycles. She is the one who watches over transformation and rebirth, helping Brigid bring the new Horned God into the world at the winter solstice.

The Spirit of the World, a black figure studded with eyes against a turquoise background

The primordial power

The Spirit of the World

He has no fixed shape, but wears a thousand faces across the world. He embodies primordial power, the original source of life on Earth. This eternal, inter-dimensional being came before all gods, and endures long after they are forgotten.
