Happy Imbolc! I did something I’ve never done before, I took the day off for a pagan holiday. The whole day has felt sacred. I hiked to a waterfall this morning (listened to your post on the drive there) made a “Brigid Cross” with grasses I gathered on my hike, and started working on a painting of what I saw in my underwater room in the last full moon ritual. Today has been a gift. And you are a gift to us all Amanda.

Thank you for this post. It was really informative and I like all of your suggestions for honoring Brigid. I especially love the song you posted; I haven't heard it before, but I am excited to play it while we light our candles tonight. I put fresh flowers on my altar this morning for Brigid and decorated our front door with flowers from our garden. :) My wife and I did a really big spring deep clean over the weekend to prepare for Imbolc and we have our Brigid's cross on our altar. We are both super ready to welcome in everything that Brigid is! Happy Imbolc, everyone!

Today I started my subscription here, because really what better action to take at such a time? Looking forward to more of your wisdom and mysteries! Brigid bless!

Thank you thank you for this! It was wonderful to have something simple (light a candle, sing along with the YouTube track) I could do this morning to sort of fix the ideas in a practice. Also, I just really love your writing. 💚💚💚

I found it! Episode 26 of strange magic. It is “Lady of the Beasts.”

Is this Brigid the same as Brigid of the Beasts?
