So tonight was the Imbolc ritual for my local CUUPS group. It was lovely. We were led in a candle meditation and encouraged to open ourselves to whatever message was intended for us. Then we actually made our own candles out of beeswax sheets, which was awesome. Mine's going on my altar along with all my other goodies for Brigid and Imbolc, which I'll be posting pictures of later this week.
My message was from Brigid, who has always spoken very directly to me. The message was three words, as I stared into the flame of my candle: Create...grow...become.
I still get a shiver thinking about it. I'm looking forward to seeing how this message manifests in my life in the coming year.
Hrafnsongir (Ravensong)
- Ravensong
- A Reclaiming witch with deep roots in Norse and Northern Appalachian folk traditions. Eternally bothered by Odin, Huginn, and Muninn, called by the magic of place, the songs of the Elder Futhark, and the spirits of native plants, particularly herbs. Runeworker, energy watcher, deep listener, healer, mistress of mead, and mother of cats. I strive to understand and to be understood. A born and bred Pittsburgh native, I find joy and peace in breath and in sinking my hands into soil, listening to the whispers of plants and the songs of birds, and watching the bees collect and carry pollen as they buzz with magic.
