IMBOLC CEREMONY: Clearing the Ashes from the Hearth

Imbolc Triple Flame Goddess.JPG

Prepare your hearth and home for the growing season by first sweeping clear the ashes of your heart from your phoenix renewal into the Wheel of the Year. We gather in ceremony over Zoom on the eve of Imbolc to celebrate, honor the triple flame Celtic goddess, Brigid, and sow seeds of inspiration with embodied healing rituals.

We will gather to clear, bless and prepare the ashes as compost for our dreams and seeds of intention, empowered by this cross-quarter Celtic holy day that marks the midway point between Winter Solstice/Yule and Spring Equinox/Ostara in the Northern Hemisphere.

Please register below to receive the Zoom link on January 31st to join at
4:00 pm PT / 6:00 pm CT / 7:00 pm ET / 2:00 pm HT.

One participant’s name will be selected from my purple silk medicine bag to receive an all new brew gem essence energy spray, “Clear Horizon”, that has been steeping in New Moon and Full Moon lunar energy with labradorite, black tourmaline, clearing prayers, mantras, and essences of protective and purifying plant allies.
