In this video, Jon O'Sullivan from the Irish Pagan School delves into the many names of the Dagda, one of the most prominent deities in Irish mythology. The Dagda, also known as Eochaid, Olathair, and Ruadh Rofhessa, carries names that reveal his diverse roles and attributes, from being a "Good God" to a "Great Father" and a figure of profound wisdom. Jon explores the meanings behind these names and how they reflect the Dagda’s multifaceted nature, drawing from ancient Irish texts and poetic forms. Whether you’re new to Irish paganism or deepening your knowledge, this discussion offers valuable insights into the Dagda's significance.
