🌾 Rhiwatton of the Yellow Hair: A Gŵyl Awst Story of Healing and Light

© Andrew Smith

In the stillness before sunrise, legend says the Lady of the Lake stepped from the waters of Llyn y Fan Fach—but only once a year, and only on Gŵyl Awst. One year, she stayed long enough to fall in love. From that fleeting union was born a child of light: Rhiwatton of the Yellow Hair, a healer taught by a goddess, destined to pass her wisdom into the bloodline of the Physicians of Myddfai.

This short story draws from fragments of Welsh triads, folk memory, and Gŵyl Awst traditions—reweaving them into a tale of healing, ancestry, and the eternal return of light.

May this season bring you abundance, peace, and connection to the cycles that hold us all.
