We can count on St. Stella to set things right! You simply needed a sacred paws before posting. Never mind; scratch that! Oh dear…too many catastrophic puns!

Your words are a balm to my soul...as always. What a lovely post ~ while I've been aware of Imbolc for a long time, I've not done much to celebrate or be *in* it. Years ago, I did spread my mother's ashes on this day...I appreciate your gentle words, your steadfast grounding...it helps us all. I truly believe it's the small acts of love, kindness and awareness that keep the world tethered in difficult times. xoxo

{{{Juls}}} You are incredibly kind and generous. How special that you scattered your mom’s ashes at such a sacred time. Your sharing here is a balm to me as well. I wish I could break through my energetic limitations enough to be more regularly connected with people. It’s always a gift to communicate with you and feel the goodness of your soul. Sending you so much love, respect, and gratitude!!!

You brought the magic of this feast into my heart this morning, Cheryl Anne. I love these traditions I hadn’t known of. I’m going to copy this (with your permission) and put it in my calendar, so I might be ready to incorporate them next year on the eve of St. Brigid’s feast day.

Thank you, Sweet woman.

You have so much beautiful Brigidine energy! I imagine those celebrations will be a wonderful experience for you! You are always in my heart, and most magical thoughts! πŸ’šβœ¨

So grateful for your words this blessed morning my friend. For a brief moment, while reading your verse and prose, I was touched by the magical mystical beauty of this morning. Thank you and much love to you.

Oh, goodness! I love you! I hope you noticed that the oblation was offered in the cup that you gifted to me in Berea! You had to be part of my celebration! πŸ’šβœ¨
