In this workshop participants will learn about the sovereign Irish goddess Brigid, some traditional folkways for Her holiday on Feb 1st, and begin informed personal ritual preparations in the Dianic tradition. The holy day of Brigid takes its name from Bride, the great Celtic goddess of poetry, healing, divination, childbirth, and smithcraft, a perfect matron for this holiday upon which we mark the rebirth and renewal of the goddess. As the solar cycle begins again with the waxing light returning, Brigid inspires us to create our lives anew in this season of new beginnings. With eyes open, we choose our spiritual path to walk this year, understanding that this choice is in fact, a commitment.
