The Eye of the Cailleach - print

Like the eye of the storm, the Cailleach (veiled one, witch or hag) watches through her cape of wind, rain and blizzard. She was the oldest of the deities, the Goddesss of Sovereignty and Winter, who was said to have formed landscapes in Ireland, Scotland and the Isle of Man. She is also associated with the ancient cairns of the Sliabh na Cailleach in Loughcrew, Co. Meath, created from stones falling from her apron.
