Curses and Hexes: Welsh Enchantress Rhiannon In Welsh folklore, the mention of curses and hexes often brings to mind the enchantress Rhiannon. Rhiannon, whose name translates to "great queen" in Welsh, is a fascinating character known for her magical abilities and the curses she is said to have cast. Legend has it that Rhiannon was a powerful sorceress who possessed extraordinary beauty and captivating charm. However, her enchanting allure brought her both great acclaim and great suffering. She was married to Pwyll, the prince of Dyfed, but their happy union was marred by a curse that prevented them from having a child. The curse was believed to have been placed on them by an enemy of Rhiannon, jealous of her beauty and desiring her as his own.
The drums are beating the rhythm of your heart
You better hurry up because the dance soon will start
Take her cold hand and spin round and round
Your body starts to burn you can't resist the sound
A distant fire burning for the feast This is the gathering yjay celebrate the beast You got an invitation from the shadows in your mind Now waiting for your answer that you must find. Bring out the brave tonight And line them up before me Join in the secred fight The battle that will set you free Bring out the brave tonight And let everyone see The rise of the holy light The light that will set you free.
The curse was believed to have been placed on them by an enemy of Rhiannon, jealous of her beauty and desiring her as his own. Frustrated by the curse and her inability to bear a child, Rhiannon took matters into her own hands. Using her mastery of magic, she conjured a spell to lift the curse.

A distant fire burning for the feast
This is the gathering yjay celebrate the beast
You got an invitation from the shadows in your mind
Now waiting for your answer that you must find
God have mercy give me strength
Pleasure and pain will unite
When all the witches dance on the burning field
You will fall in trance this night
All the witches dance under blood red skies
Whe the sun she rises
You will know who dies
In the witch dance
The drums are beating the rhythm of your heart
You better hurry up because the dance soon will start
Take her cold hand and spin round and round
Your body starts to burn you can't resist the sound
God have mercy give me strength
Pleasure and pain will unite
When all the witches dance on the burning field
You will fall in trance this night
All the witches dance under blood red skies
Whe the sun she rises
You will know who dies
In the witch dance
Getting louder getting hotter getting faster all night long
Getting deeper getting darker getting higher all night long
The earth shall bellow their feet
Faces with hungry smiles
No intention to let you leave
This dance gonna hurt
God have mercy give me strength
Pleasure and pain will unite
When all the witches dance on the burning field
You will fall in trance this night
All the witches dance under blood red skies
Whe the sun she rises
You will know who dies
In the witch dance
See the footprints in the sand
They will soon disapear
Made by the messenger from the other world
Crossing deserts and seas
Valleys and mountains
Carrying his burden without a world
You never wanted me to know
You never wanted me to feel all your pain
Now you're bringing me the answer
Master lead me to your
Messenger! I'm waiting for your sign
Messenger! You got something that is mine
He's getting closer
With every step he takes
He won't stop and rest before his mission is complete
He knows that you are waiting
He has known for many years
Don't be scared he'll find you he will hear your call
You never wanted me to know
You never wanted me to feel all your pain
Now you're bringing me the answer
Master lead me to your
Messenger! I'm waiting for your sign
Messenger! You got something that is mine
04. Bring Out The Brave
Waiting with closed eyes
Waiting for the dark to fall
Smelling the danger
Listening to the final call
We are the ones who waited all our lives
We are the ones who searched in all times
Feeling the darkness
Feeling that our time has come
Choosing my weapon
Knowing this night will last long
We are the ones who waited all our lives
We are the ones who searched in our dreams of things that ain't
Just what they seem
Bring out the brave tonight
And line them up before me
Join in the secred fight
The battle that will set you free
Bring out the brave tonight
And let everyone see
The rise of the holy light
The light that will set you free
Feeling the strong wind
Feeling your tears dry up
The waiting is over
This is the time to unite
We are the ones who waited all our lives
We are the ones who searched in our dreams of things that ain't
Just what they seem
Bring out the brave tonight
And line them up before me
Join in the secred fight
The battle that will set you free
Bring out the brave tonight
And let everyone see
The rise of the holy light
The light that will set you free
05. Wash Your Sins Away
There's something dark inside
Blood is rising you can't hide it
See a flash of something scary
The burdens heavy cross
Your memories refuse to fade
Feel the pain increase in time
Sense the time of new day coming
Reveal the truth confess your guilt
And wash your sins away
Bring it all out let nothing stay
Wash your sins away
Feel how your past is slipping away
Reflections in your mind
Watching secrets your own mirror
A conscious black and filled with shame
Hollow words of fear
Your bleeding heart just want to heal
Covered in dust you cough in tears
Sense the time of new day coming
Reveal the truth confess your guilt
Sense the time of new day coming
Reveal the truth confess your guilt
And wash your sins away
Bring it all out let nothing stay
Wash your sins away
Feel how your past is slipping away
06. Behind Your Eyes
They are asking all these questions
You don't understand a world
Seeking the future with lies
Still hiding from the truth
When you are sleeping and wander in your dreams
His awake and ready to control your destiny
Who's that behind your eyes
Let him out now to show his face
No more of your disguise
Will fool me ever again
But there is someone else
A voice inside your head
A healing hand of your soul
Giving you peace and comfort
When you are sleeping and wander in your dreams
His awake and ready to control your destiny
Who's that behind your eyes
Let him out now to show his face
No more of your disguise
Will fool me ever again
07. Wake Up The World
Your longing for answers won't go away
Burning inside your heart
Your wounds won't heal if you stay
It's time for your mission to start
Night after night and year upon year
You've been praying on your knees
But who's gonna listen to your voice
When the falls are you're disease
Leave the pain forget the past
A new journey will come
The darkest hour just passed away
Don't think of what you've done
No more fears to keep you away
No more tears will make you stay
Wake up the world
Let them all know
You are not beaten yet
Leaving the evil far behind
Heading for the golden sign above
Wake up the world
Let them all know
There is still more to say
Words that will change the universe
Scream for your life until everyone is awake
Your longing for answers won't go away
Burning inside your heart
Your wounds won't heal if you stay
It's time for your mission to start
No more fears to keep you away
No more tears will make you stay
Wake up the world
Let them all know
You are not beaten yet
Leaving the evil far behind
Heading for the golden sign above
Wake up the world
Let them all know
There is still more to say
Words that will change the universe
Scream for your life until everyone is awake
08. Man Of Peace
Don't dig your own grave
There is a life to save
I'm loosing my control
I am a righteous man
I only kill by hand
Save your own soul
I'm trying to keep myself from
Showing my dark deep inside
I believe in the healing rain
Pouring down on me
I believe in the quiet mind
Making me try one more time
Trying to be a man of peace
Behold the power
Of my beast inside
I can't hold it back much longer
A boiling anger
Beneath the surface
That keeps growing stronger
I'm trying to keep myself from
Showing my dark deep inside
I believe in the healing rain
Pouring down on me
I believe in the quiet mind
Making me try one more time
Trying to be a man of peace
09. The Eternal Curse
I know you can hear me
Don't you try to run
I know that you fear me
You gonna pay for what you've done
You tried to fool me
Now your punishment will come
There are no rules here
Feel it in your body and bone
Eternal curse
The spell that makes you blind
Eternal curse
Unforgettable pain that twist your mind
And make you mine
I'm not a preacher
I will only say this one
It's too late fore prayers
Welcome to your new world
I am your nightmare
The last dream you ever dream
Don't try to make up
Your journey has just began
Eternal curse
The spell that makes you blind
Eternal curse
Unforgettable pain that twist your mind
And make you mine
When all your wishes have come true
And you think there's nothing left for you
Take one more look and look real hard
Can you see it now?
Can you feel it now?
It's all there in your. dreams
Give me your hate
Give me your sorrows
And I will show you the other side
Give your pain
Give me your secrets
And I will take you to paradise
The never ending search for a life that you can't see
There is one more door to open and you have the key
Dreamer catch your own sun
You don't know what you got till it's gone
Dreamer it's not the time to run
You are almost reaching your own sun
Give me your fear
Give me your visions
And I will show you what's beyond the dark
Give me your lies
Give me your anger
And I will guide you to the light
The never ending search for a life that you can't see
There is one more door to open and you have the key
Dreamer catch your own sun
You don't know what you got till it's gone
Dreamer it's not the time to run
You are almost reaching your own sun
Dreamer catch your own sun
You don't know what you got till it's gone
Dreamer it's not the time to run
You are almost reaching your own sun
The spell included offerings of food and drink to the gods, as well as a promise to care for a child presented to her. The gods accepted her offerings and granted her the ability to conceive. Rhiannon gave birth to a beautiful son, but tragedy struck once again. The child was stolen from her while she slept, and Rhiannon was falsely accused of killing him. As punishment, she was forced to sit at the gates of the kingdom, telling her story to all who passed by. This curse, known as the "Curse of Rhiannon", was believed to bring bad luck and misfortune to anyone who heard it. Despite her hardships, Rhiannon eventually reunited with her son and regained her position as princess of Dyfed. She became known for her wisdom and fair ruling, as well as her continued involvement in magic and witchcraft. Her fame as a sorceress grew, and she was often sought after for her ability to cast curses and hexes. The curses and hexes attributed to Rhiannon were said to be incredibly potent and difficult to break. They were believed to bring ruin and misery to those who incurred her wrath or crossed her path. Rhiannon's spells were said to involve intricate rituals and incantations, often requiring specific ingredients or items to be used. While Rhiannon's curses and hexes have become renowned in Welsh mythology, it is important to remember that these folktales are just that - tales passed down through generations. The power of curses and hexes is a subject of belief and skepticism, varying from person to person. Nevertheless, the legend of Rhiannon and her magical abilities continues to captivate and intrigue to this day..
