I didn't really see a thread here that addressed Gaelic Polytheism of the Scottish variety. Irish Gaelic Polytheism tends to be the more common of the Gael-pols, it has a lot more information available, and a lot more in general. So! are there any Scots Gael-pols here? if so I would love to hear about your tradition, who you honour, what you do as a scots gael-pol, good information regarding Scottish polytheism, and anything you'd like to share.

That would be me, though I do have some crossover with Manannán and Na Morrígna, my main worship is Scáthach. I also worship Grandmother Beira.

Have you read the Carmina Gadelica? The first two volumes are free on Sacred Texts! It's all about the Scottish beliefs  |

Nice to meet you calluna, I have a feeling were going to be talking quite a bit in the future. It's really awesome that you worship Nana Beira, as I also honour her! Along with Brighid, Nicnevin, and a few others. Who imnoy going to name quiet yetas I'm still trying to build a relationship with. I'm actually very interested in scathach, and want to do some research and possibly build a relationship with her as well.  |

I'm not surprised that you'd be drawn to Scáthach, if you worship Nicnevin, since in some sources, Nicnevin is one of Scáthach's daughters. As far as sources, I like The Lore of Scotland: A Guide to Scottish Legends as a source for some things, you might find it helpful. Other than that, a lot of my practise is either flying by what I can research scholarly, and some pulled from family traditions, what I can pull away from the witchcraft anyway. |

I incorporate some Scottish practices into my own (waulking, Hogmanay, etc.) despite being of the Irish variety.
