I've been looking forward to putting together this Treasury for weeks now... Inspired by the beautiful sunny weather and 80F temperatures today... I took the leap towards the sunbeam ! "Welcome Breed, ohhhhh Breed is come, Breed is Welcome !"
Brighid, Brigit,
Breed, Brit
... Brigid, a Celtic Goddess of many spellings highlights this Treasury dedicated to our upcoming cross quarter sabbat... a ceremony also known as Imbolc, Candlemass, the feast of St Brighid and the festival of lights.
Welcome Breed,
Ohhhh Breed is come,
Breed is Welcome !

Imbolc, St Brigid's day, Candlemass, the festival of lights is fast approaching !
Up here in the mountains of No. California, it is a magical time when we experience a spring in the midst of our rainy winters.
It is a time for reflection & a time to feel light renewing within ourselves.
I've been cleaning house, watering my gardens, pruning my apple trees & getting ready to make this year's apple wood Brigid Crosses...
The wood is carefully sewn together with colored hemp string... purple in the center and an elemental/directional color for each of the arms of the cross. There is a loop at the back for it to hang from.
This particular Brizel apple wood Brigit Cross measures approx 5.5" x 5.5" (14 cm)
If you'd like me to custom create a Brigid Cross for a specific household... please see this listing: http://www.etsy.com/listing/64974124/made-for-you-brigid-cross-imbolc-house"
