Quotes About Danu

Swords and Spears of Light appear in the Irish and Welsh belief systems. Many of these Gods and Goddesses belonged to a family called the "Tuatha De Danaan." Their name means "Family of the Goddess Danu." They arrived in Ireland in ships that floated in the air. Ogma, known as the "Splendor of the Sun," brought the Sword of Light from Findrias. Findrias is the cloud-fair city that is in the east of the Tuatha De Danaan world.

It was then that Lugh Lámhfada, Lugh of the Long Arm, approached the battlefield. Now Lugh was the son of Cian, which means "Enduring One", who was in turn son of Cainte, the god of speech. Now the council of the Children of Danu had forbidden him to come to the battle, for Lugh was all-wise and all-knowledgeable and it was thought that his life was too valuable to risk in battle, for his was the wisdom needed to serve humankind.
