Imbolc

Merry Meet All,

In the midst of this blustery cold weather, I am reminding you that Imbolc is only three weeks away. Imbolc is the first of the three spring festivals. Have you started planning for your garden and reviewed seed catalogs? Now is the time to do so.

Imbolc is on the first or second of February. It is a fire festival in honor of the Goddess Brighid. Imbolc is an early sign of spring when it is still blustery cold. In the Irish Gaelic, it translates to “ewe’s milk.” This is when the ewes gave birth to their young. After enduring a hard winter, the farmers were most likely relieved to see the early stirrings of spring.

If you plan ahead, you should have time to properly celebrate Imbolc. I will post more on this later.

Blessings,
Lady Spiderwitch
