87: Selkies - Bodies of Water

Are you drawn to the sea? Do you love dancing under the moon? Are you capable of transforming into an actual seal by putting on a magical seal skin? If so, we’re pleased to report that you’re a selkie, and you need to be our friend. 

Selkies have featured in Celtic and Norse folklore for centuries, for good reason. Join us as we learn all about our favourite aquatic shapeshifters, and trace traditional selkie legends and beliefs into the modern day.
