What is Imbolc? Imbolc is a pagan holiday celebrated from February 1 through sundown February 2. Based on a Celtic tradition, Imbolc was meant to mark the halfway point between the winter solstice and the spring equinox in Neolithic Ireland and Scotland.

And while I can’t celebrate on the 1st due to the Hospital. We are going out into nature to celebrate on the 2nd and 3rd, do a nice walk, and look for signs of Spring popping up. The weather has turned and we’ve been treated with some sunshine.

I will be adding to the fireplace, my Rose Quartz, and Black and White Candles, a little blessing pot, and some incense I’m sure.

I’ve bought some Brigid Cross Charms to make some into jewellery, and maybe some into keyrings. But I need them to arrive.

If you can look outside for signs of Spring arriving, snowdrops and feel the energy of new beginnings stirring underneath the earth, up to new shoots on the trees. It’s like a promise of life returning and the earth is buzzing all around us, the animals are getting ready for the next lot of offspring to arrive. It’s an exciting time.

    The Brigid’s cross is beautiful. I was raised Catholic so knew about Candelmas, but did not know about Imbolc. I just read up some more on it. I will keep an eye out for signs of spring! 🙂
