Traditional Meaning

Communication, unity, and courage in voice. Stand among the trembling; let truth move through you; harmony is found in shared song.

Éabhadh is the feda of the spoken story. It represents expression that carries wisdom forward. It is the voice that connects generations. Where Muin opened the throat, Éabhadh refines the craft, transforming raw emotion into enduring tale.

Historically, Éabhadh was added to represent new sounds that emerged in the evolving language. Its creation reflected the adaptability of the Ogham itself, showing that sacred systems grow as human understanding grows. Spiritually, Éabhadh echoes the bard’s gift: the power to speak truth in forms that survive the speaker.

This feda asks us to remember the responsibility that comes with words. Every story shapes the world. Éabhadh teaches that language, when wielded with care, can heal what silence cannot.
