Blodeuwedd
9pike posted a photo: dedicated to Points in Time Blodeuwedd was a women made from flowers. Not of mother and father Did my Creator create me But of nine-formed virtues, Of the fruit of fruits, Of the fruit of the primordial God, Of primroses and blossoms, Of the flower, wood and tree. She was created by magic by King Math and the uncle of Lleu Llaw Gyffes for Lieu who had been placed under three curses by his mother Arianrhod; the last of these cursed him to never have a human wife. Blodeuwedd has an affair with Gronw Pebr and they plot to kill Lleu. Lleu can only be killed under certain conditions. He can not be killed indoors or outdoors, on horseback or on foot; and can be killed only by a spear forged when people are attending mass. Consequently he can only be killed whilst he had one foot on a bathtub and one on a goat (the bathtub being placed on a river bank but under a roof) and by someone using such a weapon Under pretence of "Lord, will you show me how these conditions might be fulfilled..?", Blodeuwedd tricks and entraps Lleu and with her lover Gronw lying in wait with the weapon, Lleu is seemingly killed and Gronw and Blodeuwedd assume power. On hearing of this, Gwydion sets out to find and cure Lleu, who is now in the form of an eagle. Gwydion restores Lleu, who kills Gronw. Gwydion curses Blodeuwedd, turning her into an owl. "You are never to show your face to the light of day, rather you shall fear other birds; they will be hostile to you, and it will be their nature to maul and molest you wherever they find you. You will not lose your name but always be called Blodeuwedd." The myth was excellently reimagined in the children's book "The Owl Service" by Alan Garner and a TV series based on the book. www.youtube.com/watch?v=1TYzD7yK494
