On Tuesday 1st February we are celebrating the festival of Imbolc - one of the four fire festival and dedicated to the Celtic Goddess Brigid. She is a triple Goddess and patron of artists, craftspeople and healers. Famous for helping others and for transformation.
This is a time of purification, to wash away the winter leaves so that new green shoots can appear. In our garden the snowdrops are putting in an appearance and bulbs are beginning to break through. We welcome the return of spring. Personally it is time to commit or recommit to our spiritual growth, a time to show love as we do on Valentines Day, and to focus on peace and hope.
On the 1st you can light white or gold candles to signify the suns' power and place yellow flowers around the house for the return of spring.
Find time to meditate and send peace, love, hope and joy out into the world.

Celtic Rowan Tree Month
On Friday 21st January we start the Celtic Rowan month. The Rowan tree symbolises action and energy and is a tree of powerful magic, with the berries called "food of the gods".
It is time to put your energy into your goals with a passion to succeed by manifesting your desires from thoughts to physical reality - drawing your power down.
Have faith in your ideas and trust your insight. This coming month sees much creative energy and also being able to overcome problems, you do though have to be aware of becoming too driven and aggressive!
Find a Rowan Tree (sometimes called the Mountain Ash) and sit with the tree and connect with its magic and energy.
Have a fantastic and magical month.

Wishing Moon
On Wednesday 19th January we have a Full Wolf Moon which is also a "Wishing Moon". During a Full Moon we are at the height of our power, fertility and creativity and things come within our reach. As this is also a Wishing Moon (there are 8 Wishing Moons in a calendar year) it is a good time to make a list of wishes, hopes and aspirations.
So you create your Wishing List, add a drop of Jasmine or Sandalwood oil to the list as this will help align your intentions with the right mental, emotional and spiritual state. Then create your own ritual by lighting white candles, wrap your list around a moonstone and bury this in the earth or put it in a secret place until the next full moon. Say what ever feels right for you in this ritual and feel the energy of the Wishing Moon.
Wishing you abundance, peace, joy and love in 2011.
