Imbolc...St Brigid's Day this is the first I ever heard of it. Looked it up in Wiki very symbolic and interesting. Is this a common celebration in Europe?

St Bridget's day is an Irish Catholic Feast day.
not as big as St Patrick's day alien

or
Christmas day santa

It is also a pagan holiday

Imbolc, February 1st or the first Full Moon in Aquarius, is a time of cleansing and newborn lambs. The name, Imbolc, comes from the word 'oimelc' or sheep's milk. It is a festival of the Maiden in preparation for growing and renewal.

Thanks Bridget. Not being Catholic I never heard of it. Might be because I live in the US?

Different cultures honor certain
saints some get more recognition
than others. flower

Here in the Boston area and many
big cities throughout the US they
celebrate St Patricks day in a way
that I being Irish find insulting. scratch

The upcoming feast of Valentine is
more light hearted non-politicial

In Boston's Italian Northend they
begin to celebrate Italian saints
from June to September a great
tourist take in flower

I know about St Patricks Day celebrated in NYC but it's a big party, green beer, and everybody's Irish (for the day). Laughing

I don't think the druid's will be
joining in celebrating St Patrick's
Day or at least the feast day part
maybe the drowning of the sharmock sunny
