How to Worship the Morrígan as a Goddess.

Here’s a summary of the most important aspects of the Morrígan and how to worship Her in your personal pagan practice. Read it now and get ahead of the inevitable craze for the series – it’s bound to be the next big thing.The best way to connect with the Morrígan, like any goddess or god, is through her mythology, epithets, and symbols. The Nevermoor series is also set to be made into a major Hollywood film which we think will be huge and cannot wait to find out about the cast. The length of the books and the descriptive language means they are well suited to advanced readers in particular. Whilst they are an obvious choice for Potter fans, many more readers aged 10 upwards and fantasy lovers of any age will love them too.

Written by Australian author Jessica Townsend, the Nevermoor books have often been compared to Harry Potter.

Since Nevermoor was published in 2017 it has won multiple prizes including the Waterstones Children’s Book Prize in 2018. Whilst book 1 is all about the magical trials for the Wundrous society, book 2 is about life at the magical school and book 3 about a strange and dangerous illness that threatens the world Morrigan lives in. Morrigan herself is bold, brave and yet strangely insecure and once in Nevermoor she starts to forge friendships for the very first time, including with her best friend Hawthorne. Details like the umbrella transport that helps Morrigan and Jupiter get around and magical creatures like the vampire dwarf and Magnifi-Cat living at Hotel Deucalion help make Nevermoor a truly magical place. Morrigan’s adventures are fabulously inventive with plenty of action and cliff-hangers.

The only problem is each child competing in the four impossible trials has a special talent. Mog is taken back to his home, the fantastical Hotel Deucalion and put up for a trial to enter the Wundrous Society. Jupiter North is a strange, red-headed whirlwind who is determined that Morrigan (or Mog to her friends) is special and must escape Jackalfax for the magical Nevermoor. But just as Morrigan’s miserable life is about to be cut short, a curious mentor appears out of nowhere to spirit her away. Born on Eventide, she is feared by everyone around her, blamed for any misfortune that should occur and, worst of all, destined to die on her 11th birthday.
