I am sorry to hear that. Its really hard to find a job right now and those that are hiring are asking for some ridicuous requirements that are not even necessary to do the jobs that they are doing.

My imbolc is going to be busy. Saturday, I will be with one of my friends we will be shopping for seeds, because I will be starting my first container garden on my balcony.
Then sunday, I am going to lancaster and we are going to be having a imbolc get-together . We will be eating, doing crafts and a ritual. I am excited about this one

Imbolc was a Celtic festival that took place on 1 February. It was probably associated with the goddess Brigit, a goddess of fertility, learning and healing. In Christian mythology the Celtic Brigit became a saint and her festival is still widely celebrated in Ireland on 1st February.

There is many things you can do without having to do a huge ritual of sorts. You could leave out milk as an offering outside and various other things to honor this holiday. I will try to post some here soon.

Thank you for telling me, though.

callmebutterfingers >.< Any milk left outside around here would be a frozen block by morning... Thank you for telling me, though. The point is that you left it outside for an offering and the "essence" of it is gone. So the fae, or brigid took it.

I'm not exactly sure what I'm doing yet. I have to work that night. So I might just do a little ritual that afternoon.
