Did you know there are over 400 names for Celtic Gods and Goddesses! Many were local names or tribal and others were shared throughout the Celtic world. The Celts had Deities associated with healing, fertility, love, harvests, hunting, warfare and so many other important aspects of life. Some gods and spirits were linked with places like caves, woods, trees, rivers, mountains and sacred sites. The Celts believed spirits dwelled in trees and some trees themselves had spirits. They believed in the spirits of animals and they honoured animals for the energy associated with particular animals such as loyalty, strength, speed etc.
