Also known as the hound of Ulster, Cu Chulainn is an Irish figure whose stories are told in the Ulster cycle. Cu Chulainn was the son of Deichtire, sister of king Conor mac Nessa, and Lugh of the tuatha de danann, he is well-known for the exploit of protecting the province of Ulster on his own against the army of Connacht led by the quee Maeve. In Celtic mythology, Cu chulainn defended Ulster on his own because his countrymen were struck by the curse of Macha each time they are under attack.
    As he is first called Setanta, the hound of Ulster Cu Chulainn gained his more familiar name after he accidentally killed a hound belonging to a smith named Culainn, In order to make amend of what he has done Setanta swear loyalty to Culainn and promised to find another hound but he would in the meantime protect the land of Culainn himself. From that time forward Setanta earned the name Cu Chulainn which means Hound of Culainn, this name point out what would be his task for the rest of his life.
    Unfortunately, Cu Chulainn would meet his death after breaking his Geis or taboo when he came across 3 old women who fed him dog meat. these women were the Morrigan in disguise whose love has been previously rejected by the Irish hero. After Cu Chulainn had offended the goddess of fate, death and prophecy. the goddess Morrigan swore revenge upon him, and death was the price to pay.

      The Irish meaning of my name is "Son of the hound of Ulster", my mother gave me the name Lewallyn, they say it's from Llewellyn, from the elements Lugh Belinus, meaning Like a Lion and lead, Rule, or "Rule like a Lion", McCullough sounds like the Hebrew word Makala, it means "Who is like God", but I go by Roger, means "Famous Spear", but Lewallyn Roger is not the name my father gave me, it was Weylyn Wyn it means Handsome, Fair "Son of the Wolf," his name was Lewis, that's where Lewallyn came from, she mixed all 3 names together just so she can get Roger in, funny thing is She didn't tell anybody what she did and I grew up being call Weylyn, I knew my wife before she told me my name Roger, at school they called me Llewellyn not Lewallyn; Lu-All-In Roger "Famous Spear" LMAO did oh Morrigan have her way, cut McCullough in half "lough" add an 'S' you have Slough, what snakes do, Grow into new Skin, from an Eel to a Wolf to a Lu Loagh a Little Calf, another spelling of our name.
      Who has a name like it, Mahakala, they call him Shiva, in Hebrew it means Seven, and Setanta means 70, the number of Days the Dog Star drops below the horizon before returning with a "Body Of Water" a Lough, that covers the land, becoming a sLough, getting ready for a pLough(Plow), and who rides the Plough around the Pole Star on a Babylonian star map? A Wolf, the head of the Dragon we call Draco, it comes from Dagon/Dagan, the Fish God of the sea, but it means Seed, and where does the Seed of a man comes from? His Roger, LOL, and they all think their Spear is Famous, LMAO again

      Shiva means Seven in Hebrew, play Seven backwards it says Novus, it means New. I call playing words backwards Echo, in Irish Macalla means Echo,, the Hebrew word for echo is Head, an echo in the head is Bat-Kol, Voice of the Daughter or some call it "Voice of God", Bat is from Bath meaning Daughter just as Mac means Son, and they say Allah is God, Macalla in Hebrew Makala means "Who is like God", they say Shiva is Mahakala, play the word "Makala" backwards it echoes "Awe Welcome",
      If that's not enough play the words "Eyes See All" in reverse you hear the echo "Eyes See All" Shiva's Eye See All, but what else is there for Shiva to say, "Eyes See All, Eye Awesome Makala" backwards you hear it echo "Awe Welcome Messiah, Eyes See All",. Look at that is someone else watching.
      That's not all, do you know where your Keen eye Sight comes from, a little golden spot on the back of the eye called the Macula Lutea, now play the words "I Too Will Come" backwards "macula Lutea", but who is the Other, in Norse mythology is a Wolf that eats the One Eyed Odin in the end. That little spot sits in a dimple called the Fovea, like a golden egg in a nest. Now let's add the echo for Fovea and see if it fits in "I Wolf, I Too Will Come" Sounds a bit like Ragnarok to me, but the say one eye is the Sun the other the Moon, in myth they are both being chased by wolves, a Wolf in each Eye , and each of your eyes sit in a 7 bone cup, and now we have 77, spoken backwards "Novus Universe" a New Universe, isn't that what Shiva creates, I hear he loves to smoke pot like I do, play the words "He Knows Dope" backwards it says ""420"" Time to get Stoned!!! LMAO
      If you want to try this yourself, I use "Say It Backwards" a free app from the app store
      Maybe next I'll show you the 7 and 77 in the cycles of the planets or maybe the design You because they are there to.

      Who be the Bad-Ass goddess, Lamashtu a dark goddess like the Shadow goddess Scathach and dangling from Lamashtu breast, a Hound & Boar, Son of the Hound, Son of the Boar, a McCullough
      The Ass is a Donkey and the slang meaning to Culo, and now Son of the Ass
      Must be a gift from the triple Goddess to have such a name and be Wyrd. Laughing My Culo Off, I'm only at 15:01(=7) and Enjoyed every minute of it.

      How Odd @20:59 (=7) "And Receive a Cup" play "Mother Cupps' backwards "Spiculum" means Spear, Mother Cupps would be my mother. Morrigan Celtic goddess is goddess Mari, goddess of the High Mountain

      Spiculum is a Little Bloody Red Spot in Sagittarius where you find Sagittarius 7 & 9(=7), known as the Lagoon Nebula, a Lough, a Body of water that the Sun/Son must cross every Winter Solstice, when the Sun/Son Dies for 3 days.

    my family ancestry comes from Ireland and our family name is around half a syllable from cu cuchulainn. whats more is the fury much of my family carries and it still causes tragedy ha go figure

      I am a McCullough, "Son of the Hound of Ulster", the Name CĂș Chulainn, come from the Irish word "Hound Puppy", the Irish word for puppy is CoileĂĄinĂ­n, his name is Setanta, which means 70, the number of days Sirius the Dog Star drops below the horizon, Sirius rises and sits with the Sun for 40 days, calling it Canicula, lating for "Puppy Dog", known as the goddess Sopdet, the mother of Sopdu also called Septu, the planet Venus. The planet that spends 7 weeks behind the Sun and retrogrades 40 days, and both Sirius and Venus are known as the Morning Star. His name Sopdu/Septu, was written with the hieroglyph of a thorn and can be translated as “skilled man” or “skilled ones”. However, it could also mean “sharp ones”. The sign itself was called “the tooth” by the Egyptians giving his name a possible third meaning of “the teeth”. If you take 3 sevens (777), joined together they form a 60 degree Triangle, every 60 years the Dogon tribe celebrates Sirius for 7 years, 60x7=420, code for "Time to get Stoned" LOL. the number 7 in Latin is Septem. The wife of Sopdu is Chensit/Khensit, meaning placenta, pointing to Virgo, the Belly Button, ruling over September(7), your belly button is your First Scare, when you were cut from the placenta. Virgo is associated with the goddess Neith, whose symbol was the crossed arrows, McCullough also mean "Son of the Boar" the name Boar means "Bow Makers". It was Hermes who sent a Boar to slay Adonis, Hermes was the father of Anubis, known also as Wepwawet, the wolf headed god that rode the plow of Ra's solar barque.
      Weylyn Wyn Lewallyn Roger Cupps McCullough, or "Son of the Wolf" "Pure/Blessed" "Like a Lion/Ruling" "Famous Spear" (Penis), "Twin" "Son of the Hound of Ulster" "Son of the Boar".
      I live where the Sevens meet, in the 97 420 zipcode.
      Ur Zababa the wolf Warrior, Ur means Wolf in Akkadain, Zababa the God of War, associated with Pabilsag, father of Damu "The Child", the Swine Star, Pabilsag is Sagittarius, which is Shaped like a Teapot, the wife of Pabilsag is Goddess Gula, known as Goddess Bau/Baba whose symbol was a Mighty Dog, or a Cu.
      Do you need more proof, Irish word for reverse is cĂșlĂș, the word for echo is macalla. play McCullough in reverse and listen to it's echo, did you hear "All Welcome", play the words "Her Star" in reverse, it says Roger, meaning penis, play "Rog Genome" in reverse, it says "Morning Star" and "Rog Envy" will echo "Evening Star".
      The father of Sopdu/Septe was Sahu "The Hidden One" known as Orion, play the words "They All Rule" in reverse, it says "Orion", to the Irish he is Lugh.
