She is associated with sovereignty, prophecy, war, and death on the battlefield. She sometimes appears in the form of a crow, flying above the warriors, and in the Ulster cycle she also takes the form of an eel, a wolf, and a cow. She is generally considered a war deity comparable with the Germanic Valkyries, although her association with cattle also suggests a role connected with fertility, wealth, and the land.
Here's a link to a site with some good information about The Morrighan: http://www.sacred-texts.com/neu/celt/aigw/aigw01.htm
And you might also want to read the book "The Great Queens" by Rosalind Clark which goes in some depth into what is known about The Morrighan.
