Nos Gwyl Fair Imbolc

What I tried to do with this film, and to celebrate imbolc was to make the whole film in one day. I shot the photos late evening and I was lucky with the weather has it had been bad. Set up a small alter to make an offering and later filmed it, I manage to get the film up loaded on the YOU TUBE just before midnight few minutes to spare. So it can be done SHOT FILMED EDITED But I don't think I would do it again...to much like hard work!!!
BUT TO SEE THAT SKY TODAY WAS FANTASTIC..
and great timing for Imbolc,,, talk about divine inspiration. /|\


Imbolc focuses on the Goddess, both as Mother - as she gave birth to the Sun God at the Winter solstice, and as the Maiden. Brigit was originally considered a form of the Triple Goddess.
Imbolc is a feast dedicated to the Goddess in her maiden aspect, in her guise as Brigid, Bridget, Bride, Brighid, Brigit or Brig - goddess of learning, poetry, prophesying, craftmanship, agriculture and healing. Imbolc is considered a traditional healing time and it is a good time to consider ways to improve your health.

Imbolc is still a special time for Pagans. As people who are deeply aware of what is going on in the natural world they recognise that there is strength in cold as well as heat, death as well as life. The Horned God reigns over the Autumn and Winter and and although the light and warmth of the world my be weak he is still in his power.

Many feel that human actions are best when they reflect the actions of nature, so as the world slowly springs back into action it is time for the small tasks that are neglected through the busy year. Rituals and activities might include the making of candles, planting spring flowers, reading poetry and telling stories.

Some Pagan history page. Interesting

YEAR CHART YOU CAN PRINT
The Pagan seasonal cycle is often called the Wheel of the Year. Almost all Pagans celebrate a cycle of eight festivals, which are spaced every six or seven weeks through the year and divide the wheel into eight segments.
