As the Horned Goddess she leads us back in time, towards the first trackways, following the migratory paths of the reindeer, and later, the forest paths of the red deer. Although her sacred pathways can be traced back to the primitive tracks of both the Reindeer and the Elk, she is also a guardian of mans prehistoric footways. She is especially concerned with the balance of energies within the earth, the cycles of nature & the fertility of the land itself. Symbolic of the spirit of nature, she appears as an antlered female, something usually only found within the reindeer. In Bulgarian, severen elen actually translates as reindeer. Ellen is also a patron of roads and the sacred gateways between the worlds. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/588cf45a1b631b0e7cf14deb/1490617151004-RVVCN9Q0SMTC85LZIF0I/Satyrsmall.jpg Portfolio - Myths - Satyr: €240 (Copy) Satyr: €240 One of many ithyphallic male companions of Dionysus, drawn to wine, women, song and music!
