In this episode, Jon O'Sullivan from the Irish Pagan School explores the fascinating myth of the Glas Gaibhnenn, the magical cow from Irish mythology that could feed entire tribes. 

Discover how this ancient creature is connected to the Tuatha Dé Danann, Goibniu the Smith, and even the downfall of Balor, the Fomorian king. We'll dive into the rich tapestry of Irish folklore, uncovering the deeper meaning behind this mythical cow and its role in both ancient and more recent times, including links to Irish famine folklore.

Join us as we explore how these old stories can still inspire and inform our modern understanding of balance, fortune, and community. For more insights into Irish mythology, folklore, and spirituality, make sure to subscribe to our channel and visit the Irish Pagan School for free resources.
