Event Information
About this Event
WHAT IS IMBOLC?
I invite you to take a journey with me into the Celtic seasonal calendar to mark the beginning of the lambing season, the awakening of spring and the new spiral.
TIME TO AWAKEN YOUR SPRING GODDESS AND LET HER BURST FORTH!
Imbolc symbolises the 'quickening of the year', the entrance into the new spiral.
The original word 'Imbolg' means 'in the belly'. All is pregnant and expectant - and only just visible if at all, like the gentle curve of a 'just-showing' pregnancy. It is the promise of renewal, of hidden potential, of earth awakening and life-force stirring. Time to welcome the growth of the returning light and witness Life's insatiable appetite for rebirth... AHO!
Imbolc is traditionally the great festival and honouring of Pagan Goddess Brigid (Brighid, Bride, Brigit) She is a Goddess of healing, poetry and smithcraft. Her name is often translated with the meanings of “The Exalted One”, “The Bright One”, “Bright Arrow”, “The Powerful One”, and “The High One.”
TIME TO BRING BACK THE FEMININE DIVINE POWER IN YOU!
SO WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?
As the darkness diminishes and starts to fade away, the light begins to increase and shine a little brighter. You may feel a building of imaginative, flowing, creative energy. You may feel as though you have a new spring in your step! A lifting of the fog and heaviness and a dropping of the sleepy blanket that you have been cocooning under for the past few months of winter.
In the darkest months of 2020 (and those days were definitely dark), we are invited by the energies to go within and be in the silence of inner darkness or death.
Did you fear that your inner world went dark and that the light would not return?
Just as the world turns on its axis and brings about the return of the light turn after turn, you can rely on the return of your own light, and allow your internal garden to bloom, grow and flourish into the New Dawn.
Join your sisters in sacred circle for this SPRING IMBOLC AWAKENING and light the fire within to step boldly and beautifully into the SPRING LIGHT!
