RE: Brightly Burns the Flames of Inspiration - Brigids Hearth
Brighid was the first Goddess who ever really spoke to me. And in ancient times, it wasn't just the animals who were birthing around Imbolc - people in Celtic cultures were, too, because it had been nine months since Beltaine. So a lot of Celtic babies were born close together! 😊
gives you the secret druid handshake ;)
Ehh yeah that makes sense. In the celebration of Imbolc it was a whole courting affair. It was a maiden centred celebration and the young men would come and court the maidens during/after the Imbolc feast. I suppose they got to know each other by spring haha. The celtic people were really accepting of sexuality and motherhood and women and I think its lovely! At least before christianity they were, but St Brigit continued to protect womens rights too.
Heh let us be druid friends yes, thanks for stopping by!
