Imbolc is a moon festival.
Rarely the moon shines brighter than the February full moon. He awakens the trees and plants, the human. He is the mysterious power of the feminine, the hopes and dreams, hopes and plans wakes.
It is a celebration of Mother Earth and the Great Goddess, it marks the beginning of spring.
Imbolc means "in the belly" - the life in your stomach begins to become ready to move and to break through. The nature and we also renewed. At least we should try.
it to the goddess Brighid is dedicated
the "Light Bringer"
Brighid's night
The power of the East has ignited
Frozen stand all bare, black trees
order to heat their dreams gurdy
but reduces the clatter frosty night
The east wind sharpened his blade
blowing ice particles, sharp as steel
well behind hat, scarf behind
The storm tears at the roof gutter
It is a lonely cold gear
But at home, in den Schein der Kerzen
Streb´ich,mit hellem,frohen Herzen
Und vorwärts treibt mich dieser Drang
Ich werde heut´den Kelch erheben
Aufsteigen wird der Segens-Rauch
So ist´s an Imbolc guter Brauch
Auf neues Licht und neues Leben!
Schon ist es abends länger hell
Die Krähen sind weit fortgezogen
Nach Norden hin,in schwarzen Wogen
Weg von des Südens warmem Quell
Noch kalt und know the arable soil
the wind whistling through glitzernd'Furchen
see only snow vertebrae are
Where soon stalks weigh are
hör'ich But even a song, so softly is at it, return
Give the new - familiar way
It tells of the light power
Das: Sung
with the wind, softly
So strange, and yet force
upgrade the lifeblood
can in everything as living on Earth
Displaces now is the shadow realm
A new beginning, new life!
The light has returned!
I welcome want it now - the same!
A 'every time has its rights
There is a hold, not waiting
We walk in the time of the light
In circuit with its festivals

| last year at Imbolc |
Candlemas is the Christian conversion of the Celtic Germanic festival lights and the
devoted mother Mary.
Sun:
saw it this morning from when looking out the window.
And this gives us hope so.
For if today the sun shining brightly, would. would say a long winter ahead.
For if the bear with us, or the roof in Kentucky or the groundhog in Pennsylvania is blinded by the sun, it creeps back into the building, and sleeps a little longer.
