We come together at Imbolc, the midway point between the deepest darkness of the year and the return of light, to honor the inner landscapes of winter—the slowness, the stillness, and the spaces where life grows unseen. Like a seed buried in the earth, transformation happens in darkness. What is dying, what is decomposing, what feels heavy—this is the soil from which the new arises.

This is a time to hold all of ourselves, including the melancholy, the endings, and the depths we might be touching in these slow days. It is a time to recognize the death of who we once were and to welcome the emergence of who we are becoming. In the non-dual awareness of winter’s stillness, there is no separation between shadow and light, loss and growth, death and life—they are all part of the same unfolding.

Brigid’s Flame guides us here. She is the spark of inspiration, the creative fire, the Muse, the living symbol of transformation. Her flame is not just light—it is the inner fire that burns within the darkness, illuminating the unseen currents of the psyche, the dream-symbols, and the mythopoetic threads that weave our lives. It calls us to bring awareness to what is alive beneath the surface, to speak to the unconscious, and to honor the deep, sacred work of becoming.

In this two-hour global ceremony, we will enter a liminal, ritualistic space where we can:

• Set intentions to honor what has been dense, difficult, or shadowed.

• Receive the new life sprouting quietly from the winter’s soil.

• Connect with the inner artist, the Muse, and the spirit of Brigid, inviting creativity, insight, and transformation.

We gather not just to mark a season, but to bear witness to the life emerging in the silence, to the dreams and symbols that guide us, and to the fire of transformation that burns in every ending and beginning. Brigid’s Flame lights the way—reminding us that even in darkness, life is always gestating, always becoming.
