Saturday 30th January 7 pm Earth Spirit Circle – Imbolc (Zoom)
Join the Unitarian Earth Spirit Network for our celebration of Imbolc, the Celtic fire festival of awakening. At Imbolc we clear away the debris of winter, preparing the ground for the first ploughing and sowing. We welcome the returning light and the stirrings of Springtime, as the first green shoots and the snowdrops push through the soil, giving us encouragement and confidence to light the fires of hope and inspiration in our hearts. The festival honours Brighid, Celtic Goddess and later Catholic Saint, patron of poets, healers and smiths.
Our celebration will include words, music, meditation, and the opportunity to share in small groups our sources of inspiration. All welcome.
