IMBOLC – The Festival of Lights – February 1st and Katy Carr’s Birthday!!!

Tuesday, February 1st, 2011

IMBOLC – The Festival of Lights (February 1st or 2nd)

Like the other main Celtic holidays, Imbolc is sometimes celebrated on it’s alternate date, astrologically determined by the sun’s reaching 15-degrees Aquarius, or Candlemas Old Style. Imbolc, also known as St. Brigit’s Day and February 2nd in the Catholic holidays as Candlemas, marks the midpoint between the Winter Solstice and the Vernal Equinox. It is tradition, after sunset, to light every lamp or candle in the house to honor the Sun’s rebirth. ‘Imbolc’ literally means ‘in the belly’ (of the Mother). It signifies the stirring and quickening of new life in the Goddess.

John Duncan’s St. Bride

The holiday is also known as ‘Brigit’s Day’, in honor of the Celtic fire-goddess Brighde, “the Bright One” (more…)
