Imbolc
Anyone celebrating the upcoming holiday? If so, what will you be doing? I'm in a coven (at least for two more weeks - then I'm moving 700 miles away) and agreed to write the ceremony for Imbolc this year. I'm doing workings based on the Scottish stories of the Cailleach becoming Brigid after drinking from the well of…
