Brighid and the Celtic Festival of Imbolc
This slideshow is dedicated to Brighid - archetypal symbol of new life and light, goddess of poetic inspiration, healing, midwifery and smithcraft; Celtic saint of wisdom and peace, bringing her light to the people of the world. Imbolc - or Candlemas - falls around the time of February 1st. Our ancestors would have looked to the earth and the sky, rather than the calendar, reading the language of nature to know when the time had arrived. Newborn lambs arrive and suckle at their mothers' breasts, snowdrops appear and the light grows.
The theme of the slideshow is a reflection of my personal experience of Imbolc, of new life and light, and places that I associate with Brighid, such as the Well of Eternal Youth on the Isle of Iona, which some of us also know as 'Brighid's Well'.
The music is an extract from the Harp Essence Music which was used to create the vibrational essence which is the Brighid Harp Essence. The CD of the music is currently sold out, but if you are a subscriber to the newsletter of the Spiritual Harp Community, you can download it as an mp3 track.
Blessings of the this season of light, life and joy to you.
with love
