Mother Earth remains still,drawing deep within herself for her winters rest, yet her children and creatures still stir above her~ At Imbolc, we begin to see the smallest stirrings of our Mother Earth waking from her sleep as the days slowly become longer. The earth is coming alive and once again, it is time to begin anew~ It is on this day that we can feel the return of the light and the heat of brighid's eternal flame. The land begins to bloom in subtle ways, Buds begin to grow on the barren branches and the first blooms reach up toward the sun. The Beauty of Fertility is becoming so clear now~
Here is a little blessing that you may use if you wish~
