CANDLEMAS is the midpoint between the Winter Solstice and The Spring Equinox.

Join me and my dear friend and ritual queen Deborah Roth to learn about the power of rituals for Candlemas.

We have come to midwinter - the halfway point between the shortest day of the year (the Winter Solstice) and the Spring Equinox. This was originally celebrated as a festival of light and fertility.

In women’s spirituality circles, the Crone now transforms into the Maiden. And in Ireland, the goddess Brigit - goddess of smithing, poetry, and healing is honored by lighting candles and bonfires.

 It is a perfect time for self-initiation into our authentic power. Also known as Imbolc-fire in the belly-we will celebrate the quickening taking place at this time that will ignite our actions to bring more purpose and passion into our lives.
