About Imbolc

'1st February - IMBOLC is the time between the Winter Solstice (emptiness) and the Spring Equinox (beginning growth) when inspiration for the seed to be sown is given nurture. If we focus on what we intend to bring about in our lives over the following cycle of seasons we can let quiet contemplation bring forward the next aspect of life's need.' Kaaren Whitney
