  2. Brigid’s Cross Tutorial

    "In Ireland #Candlemas (or pagan #Imbolc) is celebrated as St Brigid’s feast day. It’s a holiday where the returning of the light and the nature after the dark winter is celebrated. A typical symbol for this holiday is the Brigid’s cross (or Brigit’s cross), a four-ended cross made of straw or rushes, with a knotted pattern in the middle. Traditionally the crosses are made on the holiday and set over doorways and windows to protect the home from fire or any kind of harm.

    There are many different variations of Brigid’s crosses. The Brigid’s Cross tutorial I’m showing here is the most common."

  7. Happy Imbolc, everyone! 🌟🌱🕯

    (Or Candlemas, or Brighid's Day, or whatever name you call it by.)

  8. I find it kind of confusing that everyone here is doing their #Imbolc stuff on February 1st; when I first got into #Paganism (via #Wicca), I was taught that it's February *2nd*. Yes, slightly offset, but also that's why Groundhog's Day.

    Am I the only one?

    When do you celebrate Imbolc or #Candlemas? (Boosts welcome, would love more input.) #Pagan #Brighid #Brigid
