Imbolc/Candelaria 🔥

[judyconda]

#FolkloreThursday: Imbolc 🕯️🌞 The celebration of Imbolc originates from the Celts. Imbolc symbolizes the halfway point between the winter solstice (Yule) and the spring equinox (Ostara). The word "imbolc" means "in the belly of the Mother," because the seeds of spring are beginning to stir in the belly of Mother Earth. 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 winter solstice and the spring equinox in Neolithic Ireland and Scotland. The holiday is celebrated by Wiccans and other practitioners of neopagan or pagan-influenced religions. Imbolc is just one of several pre-Christian holidays highlighting some aspect of winter and sunlight, and heralding the change of seasons. The celebration of Imbolc dates back to the pre-Christian era in the British Isles. The earliest mentions of Imbolc in Irish literature date back to the 10th century. Poetry from that time relates the holiday to ewe’s milk, with the implication of purification. It’s been speculated that this stems from the breeding cycle of sheep and the beginning of lactation. The holiday was traditionally aligned with the first day of spring and the idea of rebirth. After months of turning inward, of hibernation & of rest, life is beginning to stir again. Depending on where you are, you may be seeing the first spring flowers beginning to show signs of life. Spiritually, this is a time of new life coming into manifestation. We may only be seeing the tiniest hints of life above the surface but things are really beginning to stir in the darkness. Just like nature is beginning to awaken after its dormant period, we are also reawakening with new dreams & exciting new plans. #imbolcblessings #imbolc2023 #spring #springseason #spring2023 #summer #summerseason #summer2023 #mystique #spiritique #mindfulness #spiritual #spirituality #blessedimbolc #mysticalsummers #mysticalsummer #februaryblessings #firstdayofspring #pagan #paganism #mystical #mysticisim #mystic #folklore #folkloreflash #folkspirits #imbolc2023 #blessedbe #Brigid #brigidsday https://www.instagram.com/p/CoKMEZFyipg/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Today is Imbolc a pagan holiday representing the midway point between the winter solstice and the spring equinox! This marks the beginning of the end of winter. Now the energy starts to shift to moving up from the earth preparing for spring. The days become longer, the sun shines a little brighter, and pretty soon you start to see signs of spring on the way. I’m already seeing the tips of my daffodils protruding from the earth. Even though it’s going to be bitter cold this weekend we know that before long the warmer days will return. Take some time to go within. Find those seeds of intention that you are looking to plant this spring. Today the process has begun, the work that is unseen but we know that it is happening just underneath the surface waiting for the time when spring has sprung 🌱 #imbolc #imbolcblessings #midway #midwinter #springiscoming #gowithin #setintentions #plantyourseeds #chiforhealing #gaiacentricliving (at Middletown, Connecticut) https://www.instagram.com/p/CoJJigxOOyn/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

In anticipation of Imbolc on Wednesday and halfway point between winter solstice and spring equinox, please enjoy this wee bunch of snowdrops on the spinney down the lane. You can’t see quite yet in my photos but these will carpet the ground of this little wooded area over the coming weeks making way later for a flourish of daffodils. #springiscoming 😊 . . . #imbolc #imbolcblessings #saintbrigidsday #snowdrops #carpetofsnowdrops #springday #spinney #lincolnshire #weatherdivination #springofferings #wiccansofinstagram #wiccanlife #mothernature #hedgewitch (at Harrowby, Lincolnshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/CoAS6cvI75c/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#FolkloreThursday: Brigid the Goddess Brigid, Goddess of Fire "The EXALTED One" Brigid, or the Exalted One, was the Irish goddess of spring, fertility, and life. Beloved by poets, she was the master of both healing and smithing. Her holiday, Imbolc, was held on February 1st and marked the midpoint of winter. Many of Ireland's wells and waterways were devoted to her. Brigid, or the Exalted One, was the Irish goddess of spring, fertility, and life. Beloved by poets, she was the master of both healing and smithing. Her holiday, Imbolc, was held on February 1st and marked the midpoint of winter. Many of Ireland’s wells and waterways were devoted to her. Imbolc celebrations took the form of a festival in honor of the pagan goddess Brigid, who was evoked in fertility rites and oversaw poetry, crafts and prophecy. Brigid was worshipped by the Filid, a class of poets and historians among the Celts of ancient Ireland and Britain. Brigid was considered one of the most powerful Celtic gods, the daughter of the Dagda, the oldest god in the Celtic pantheon Tuatha du Danann. She had two sisters also named Brigid (though it’s speculated that these sisters are meant to symbolize different aspects of the same goddess.) Brigid appears in the saga Cath Maige Tuired and the Lebor Gabála Érenn, a purported history of Ireland collected from various poems and texts in the 10th century. Myths about Brigid’s birth (Brigid's Cross) say she was born with a flame in her head and drank the milk of a mystical cow from the spirit world. Brigid is credited with the very first keening, a traditional wailing for the dead practiced at funerals by Irish and Scottish women. 2nd digital photo credits to © Aurélie S. #imbolcblessings #imbolc #imbolc2023 #spring #springseason #spring2023 #summer #summerseason #summer2023 #mystique #spiritique #mindfulness #spiritual #spirituality #blessedimbolc #mysticalsummers #mysticalsummer #firstdayofspring #pagan #paganism #mystical #mysticisim #mystic #folklore #folkloreflash #folkspirits #brigid #brigidsday #brigidthegoddess #imbolc2023 https://www.instagram.com/p/CoKOD3DyHFR/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Imbolc blessings! This Mantra is part of my Fashion Therapy course which has a Mantra to support each week of focus. Today happened to be the day a Client experienced this Mantra and she told me all about Imbolc and how appropriate this Mantra is for the celebration of today’s #CelticHoliday for which both seeds and fire are powerful symbols. This is the Mantra to support the week of designing Rituals for #FashionTherapy Clients - also quite aligned! Today represents the halfway point between Winter and Spring for the #Gaelic tradition, a time when Mother Nature’s seeds begin to stir and this new beginning is often celebrated with a fire - it is also known as #BrigidsDay who is among other things known as the #GoddessOfFire. I love learning from my Clients and I love how magnetic and activating this powerful work is. There are no coincidences!
