Hello dear friends, Imbolc is the ancient Celtic holiday that marks the beginning of Spring. The holiday was traditionally celebrated by the lighting of fires to honor the sun goddess Brigid. Imbolc this year was February 1, so our set this week honors the Divine Mother, the source of the life force behind the awakening of Spring. For more chants to honor the Divine Mother, here’s a link to ‘The Fires of Imbolc’, a New World Kirtan Podcast from February 2020.
