Imbolc 2025

Celebrating halfway to Spring, and the Day of Bridget!

Well, here we are…8 days after Imbolc, and I am finally uploading my cover photo for the Sabbat. Typical! And how is your Winter Season holding up? We’re halfway through it!

As always, Imbolc is a very special Sabbat for me. It was my name that lead me to read up on this particular Sabbat, which lead me to realize that all the organic thoughts I’d had about spirituality aligned so very closely with modern paganism and modern witchcraft.

This year, I channeled the healing spirit of Brigid to help during a health emergency a stranger was going through at a restaurant I was having dinner at with my mother. I stayed on the line with 9-1-1 and helped the father and son with taking care of the mother until the ambulance came.

I do not know what it is, but somehow during an emergency I get a calmness-rush. Things for me get very steady, clear, slow, deliberate, and decisiove, and I manage everything within me and around me until the situation is under control.

Then I crash and I’m all kinds of freaked out and buzzed after the fact, but that’s a different story.

In this year’s Imbolc graphic, I’ve included the Sun & Moon at the center, a corn doll, a cross of St Brigid, a candle, a crocus, a bonfire, and sunbeams.

Stay warm with the rest of the season, Northern Hemisphere friends.
