Drawn by horses, across the snowy drifts in her slay, the Imbolg/Valentine Goddess Brigid (pronounced Br-ee-d) has arrived on our altar.
Sweetly hand stiched of wool felt, face and body stuffed with 100% pure cotton batting, she smiles knowingly as the light grows in strength.
Look for my upcoming SageWoman column, titled, B is for Brigid, Imparting Brigid’s Virtues of Unity, Peace, Healing, Poetry and Craftsmanship to Our Children.
Here's a snipet:
I am drawn to Brigid in particular because of her strength of character and the assets she brings to my family’s practices in faith. I am a home schooling mom, some pagan parents have their children in public or private schools, but whatever your child’s academic path it is up to us as parents to cultivate wisdom in the hope of developing within our children a strong sense of worth and an ethical fortitude rooted in our faith system. Brigid therefore is the perfect Goddess to aide us in the bestowing of what I like to call “Brigid’s Virtues.”
