    I look at the origins of what is now a Public Holiday in Ireland. Imbolg is one of the four Gaelic festivals, Brigid a Saint & Goddess.

    I'd be very grateful for RTs!

  4. The #dandelion is one of nature’s quiet teachers: resilient, generous and deeply connected to the land.

    On St. Brigid’s Day, we take a moment to highlight this Imbolc symbol, and Brigid’s legacy as a carer of the Earth.

    As nature reawakens, let’s recommit to protecting the fragile ecosystems that sustain us all.

  5. The feast day of animal-loving St Brigid coincides with an animal cruelty festival in which Irish hares are terrorised by dogs. Read John Fitzgerald's letter in the Avondhu and please join calls for a ban on cruel coursing banbloodsports.wordpress.com/2 #stbrigidsday #BanHareCoursing

  8. Lá Fhéile Bríde, Imbolc at last. That was one extra-long January. Glad to get to the Bank Holiday. And breathe … for a couple of days at least 🌱⛅️

  9. 'I am the dream of awakening. I am the returning of the light. I am the tough green shoot pushing up through the pavestones, I am the first kiss of sunlight on the unfurling petals of the snowdrop...' ✍️Imbolc by Caroline Mellor #BookWormSat #Poetry #Imbolc #StBrigidsDay #Nature 🌿
