RAVEN BIRD OF MYTH AND LEGEND
In Celtic mythology, the warrior goddess known as the Morrighan often appears in the form of a
crow or raven or is seen accompanied by a group of them. Typically, these birds appear in groups
of three, and they are seen as a sign that the Morrighan is watching -- or possibly getting ready to
pay someone a visit.
In some tales of the Welsh myth cycle, the Mabinogion, the raven is a harbinger of death. Witches
and sorcerers were believed to have the ability to transform themselves into ravens and fly away,
thus enabling them to evade capture.
The Native Americans often saw the raven as a trickster, much like Coyote. There are a number of
tales regarding the mischief of Raven, who is sometimes seen as a symbol of transformation. In the
legends of various tribes, Raven is typically associated with everything from the creation of the world
to the gift of sunlight to mankind. Some tribes knew the raven as a stealer of souls.
