Blessed Imbolic

Have a Blessed Imbolic

Celebrating Imbolic Aka Brigits Day or Candalmas
Not common to all Pagans, this is very popular with Wiccans and various Celtic sects. Brigid is the Celtic goddess of fire and inspiration (Poetry, smithcraft and healing) as well as yet another representation of the Fertility of Femininity and Love. Brigid had such a strong following among the Celtics that the Christian church decided it was easier to assimilate her into their own system, and so there came about the making of Saint Brigit and all the stories they created about her so that her followers would leave their old beliefs enough so they would not side with the Druids, who were known at that time as 'the snakes' because of their tendency to have tamed snakes that were used to help produce various healing mixtures via their venom, and who were violently opposing the Catholic church. In History, of course, the druids lost against the overwhelming odds presented by the church, led by a man who would then be himself sainted by the church, their Saint Patrick (who was no clergyman but a warrior). Thus Christian rule of various sorts came into Ireland. Handcrafts are often sacrificed to Brigid or dedicated to her as they are started on this day. Its celebration is done with many candles and as usual much feasting. The Christians also took, moved slightly and used this date by creating St. Valentine and using the day for one of chaste love reflections. Imbolc marks the recovery of the Goddess after birth of the God. The warmth of the power of the God fertilizes the Earth and so the earliest beginnings of spring occur. This is a sabbat of purification, a festival of light and fertility. Tis also a traditional time for initiations into covens and self-dedication rituals. Also known as: Feast of Pan, Feast of Torches, Oimelc.

New Items and more

Greetings everyone!
We have been busy adding new items up on the website! We are excited over a new line we listed up yesterday! These are resins, hand rolled incense and attar oil! We tested the products first to make sure they would be a great add as well keep all our friends happy. And they will!
We tested the scent strength, burning times, and linger times. And they do meet our satasfaction of the companies claim. They are a line from Ramakrishnanda and all Resin, Incense and oils are hand made/mixed and blessed by Swami Ramakrishnananda and followers. These are a wonderful addition to our shop and we do hope you enjoy them as much as we do!
Some answers to frequent questions about this line: Are they strong? Yes very one incense stick will fill the whole house for at least 2 days! A teaspoon of the resin on a burning charcoal berquet will fill the whole house and last for days!  just a few drop of oil in a burner will fill the house for days, just 3 drops on an oil pad for oil lockets will keep for about a week.
Do you use them with the incense you make? Yes it complements very well!
Are there sample kits i can get? Not yet but we are working on that! We are compiling and working the the supplier to see if we can do this, It might take some time but we really believe in these products otherwise we wouldn't have put them up on our website!


We have added calenders, almanacs, Athems, magnets, scrying bowls, Posters, and lots more! And guess what we still have tons more to add! Remember we need your votes on the species poll! Vote and share it we need your help! Have a wonderful week everyone BB!
