CW: gardening; neopagan
My prayers have been listened to. It's hard to tell because they're a tangled mess and who knows which branch belongs to which root, but by my count six out of seven birches planted on my balcony are now sprouting living leaves.
Praise Marzanna, who listened to my plea to let them be. Praise Mokosz who graced them with fresh growth.
And gods aside, I'm happy my own work has paid off as well. As well as my wife's work when I was away.
I am thinking how to properly honour the Goddesses for their gift.

Addendum to the above:
* Frigg probably is the best alignment to the Mórrígan as Mother, Prophet, Weaver, and consort of the Fionn-type (Ódinn), even if the traits of Harvester-Of-Slain-Warriors instead aligns with Freya.
* She is probably also then the Goddess of May-Day if calendar customs were aligned between Germanic-Norse and Celtic in this way, as I would guess them to be.
* Frigg is the origin of Friday: Frigg-Day. I have no lore to suggest any day-association for the Mórrígan.
* May Day this year falls on a Friday (and a Full Moon)So, make of that what you will - It's probably an especially auspicious day for all you Frigg peeps, as it always would be for Mórrígan peeps.

17 years ago on this day Kathryn, my second wife, exited this world. She was an award winning feline health writer, middle eastern dance and yoga instructor, Arabic hand drummer, neopagan witch, an artist and music community leader. I had the privilege of her presence the last ten years of her life. She struggled with bipolar II, PTSD, anxiety, agoraphobia, Lyme disease, and chemical dependency. She gave much love, and needed more love than any one could give her. I am still wrecked how her health challenges distorted her views, how she treated herself and how she chose to leave this world, but ultimately I am grateful for all the love she gave me and others, helping us be better, wiser people. I miss her. Love hurts and love heals. Blessed be. #memorial #grief #obituary #death #companionship #love #music #neopagan

The Irish whiskey is what provides that fire. I'd like to say it's like the mead of inspiration, so crucial for poets, but... no, that'd be mead. Whiskey isn't mead. But it's Irish, and you can light it on fire.
The cinnamon reinforces the fire symbolism, both by being a "fiery" spice (e.g., in Red Hots candies or Fireball liquor), and also by providing pretty sparks.
8/8, end

There's symbolism in this drink, natch:
• it has 3 ingredients, befitting the famously triple goddess, Brighid
• one of them is dairy-based, connecting with the name #Oimelc, "ewes' milk", for the holiday
• the hazelnut liqueur connects with the usual Celtic symbolism of hazelnuts as bringers of knowledge and wisdom, necessary for a smith, a poet, or a healer
• then we set the whole thing on fire, as is only right and proper for a fire goddess 7/8 -

You can drink it all down in one shot, or sip it, or stir it around and then sip it. Any of those three options should be enjoyable.
I'd never drink one without saying "Hail Brighid!" either before or afterward, but I suppose it isn't an ironclad requirement.
For that matter, the plate isn't required, either, but it catches the cinnamon sprinkles and makes cleanup easier. 6/8

Light the hot whiskey. As the flames flicker, sprinkle cinnamon over them from about 30–40 cm up (12–16 inches). It'll make pretty sparks.
You can blow out the flame after a few seconds, or let it burn out on its own. Especially if you choose the latter, *carefully check the temperature of the glass before you put it to your lips!* 5/8

Layer the whiskey on top of the Bailey's. This part is a bit more delicate than the first float was, but the heat of the whiskey should help.
Dim the lights so you can see the flame better. (Alcohol flames are dimmer and bluer than you're used to in movies. Yes, Hollywood's been lying to you.) 4/8
