Join us for an evening of reflection and new beginnings as we honor the growing light of the sun and the Celtic Christian tradition! February 1 is St. Brigid's Day, about halfway between the winter solstice and the spring equinox. It marks the feast day of the female patron saint of Ireland, and is a time when people traditionally made candles to honor the light. We'll gather under the new moon to observe the night sky, then head inside for a story and guided meditation, journaling, setting intentions for the next month, decorating and blessing beeswax candles to take home, and finish with a shared snack. This circle is a wonderful opportunity to connect with others and the season.
