    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.
    cheers

    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 santa

    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 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
