"No one can achieve good fortune by force, but it can be gotten without any difficulty at all." Good fortune, rath in the Gaelic languages, is bound up with how one lives one's life, though it is not just a function of obeying the rules or living up to any pre-scripted expectation. Cleverness, loyalty and bravery, the qualities symbolized respectively by the raven, the wolf and boar in both European and North American mythologies, were key to unlocking a good and abundant life - the root of one's rath. None of these qualities should be placed above any other. They must be kept in balance, a task at once easy and difficult, but from their balance flows rath.
