Notes: One of the tools of the weaver is a beater that looks rather like a sword, hence "fight of women." This image brings forth an association, for me, with Scáthach, the famous woman warrior of the Isle of Skye who taught Cú Chulainn the martial arts, and from this the association with women's power. Establishing peace was one of the tasks of the brehon or judge, and so the obscure Bríghid of the Judgments seems appropriate for this fid. It also leads to the concept of choices, which must be weighed before proper judgment can be rendered. Letters and writing in combination with peace and judgment could lead to the idea of treaties, contracts, and agreements. The overall references to weavers and looms leads to associations with weaving and harmony, with the support of a fork in a branch for the frame of a loom.
