TRIPLE DEITIES
The celts were fascinated by things that came in threes.They made image of bulls with three horns and gods with three faces or heads. The. welsh and irish wrote triads, poems with three lines that described three concepts. And celtics legends often speak of people with three sons or daughters. God and godesses also came in groups of three. A number of celtics carvings and reliefs show a trio of female deities standing together.This trio godesses or triple mother seem have been considered particularly powerful by the celts. They represent both human fertility and the bounty of earth and have dominion over human life and well- being.They also seem symbolized the span of human life- many trios of godesses take the form of women in different ages.
