Is the Dagda a Sex God?

🔗 FREE LEARNING RESOURCES! - https://www.irishpaganschool.ie/free
In this powerful and deeply personal episode, Jon O’Sullivan of the Irish Pagan School challenges popular misconceptions about the Dagda, one of the most well known deities of Irish mythology. While often misrepresented as a god of sex and indulgence, the Dagda’s true essence lies in sovereignty, justice, hospitality, and care for the community.

Drawing directly from ancient Irish lore, Jon unpacks the myths surrounding the Dagda’s relationships with Boann and the Morrigan, and shares lesser known, but vital, stories that show how this deity stands firmly for consent, protection, and emotional intelligence. 

He also speaks candidly about his own experiences, calling out harmful behaviours cloaked in spirituality and offering a grounded, respectful path forward.

There is so much here for curious learners of all levels to gain knowledge and insight on their spiritual paths while avoiding the misinformation that is sadly common in popular  modern paganism.
