Dana Celtic matriarch of power

Danu is the matriarch of power in the Celtic pantheon. Some sources describe her as a mortal woman who is the ancestral figure to the Gods, but some speculation remains about her role in the creation myth of the Celts. Only a few accurate physical representations of Danu exist today. Still, the symbols often associated with Danu are the fish, seagulls, horses, water, wind, crowns, keys, gold, amber, and the triple goddess symbol, which is supposed to represent the maiden, mother, and crone, the three stages of a woman’s life cycle.
