Also known as AENGHUS, OENGHUS, MAC-OG

AONGHUS: God of Love, the Celtic answer to CUPID.

As a love child of DAGDA and BOANN he carried on the tradition to become a love God, learning to play the harp and lulling the ladies with his smoochy lyrics.

To sustain his reputation as a Romantic Rascal he ran off with ETAIN the wife of his stepbrother MIDIR.

Pursuing the loves and doves side, four of these lovebirds were often to be seen circling above the curly head of this holy heartthrob. These are the symbols used for kisses at the end of love letters. xxxx. More than four and they will go to waste.

Something to think about...the name...not sure on that one.

ArthurPendragon

I think it may be the same one and perhaps I was given an improper spelling. Wouldn't be the first time.

Blessings!
