Imbolc: A Six Week Guide to The Quickening of Winter

The Wheel of the Year continues to spin with Imbolc, also known as Candlemas in some traditions. This Greater Sabbat represents a light in the darkness of Winter. The lessons we can learn about perseverance and hope at this dark time can serve us throughout the coming year. And while we are still in the frozen grip of Winter, we are dreaming of what we could sprout in Spring. 

Falling on February 2nd, Imbolc is the halfway mark between Winter and Spring. Purification, honoring the dead, and reconnecting to natural resources are all sacred acts. Also at this Sabbat, many Witches will rededicate themselves to their path, or dedicate themselves to a new skill, rekindling their passion for life after walking through the stillness of Winter. 

Explore the deep Winter hope of this Cross Quarter festival and season marked by ceremonies and magical work dedicated to light & fire, timekeeping, purification and fortitude. Learn how to make the most of your Winter hibernation, clearing the way for the growth of Spring!

But the work isn't done after one night! We’ll take a look at what we can expect for the coming 6-7 weeks of Imbolc season. We will learn how to observe this time of dreaming and initiation for yourself or with your community. And get ready to Do The Work. Grab a friend, a journal or some art supplies, maybe make a pot of tea and a snack, and settle in. I also encourage folks to create sacred space for themselves by lighting a candle and/or some incense. You might also include magical tools like Tarot and your natal chart.
