About the event
What is Imbolc?
Imbolc is a traditional nature festival on February 1 in the Northern Hemisphere, halfway between the winter solstice and spring equinox. It marks early spring signs, earth's wake-up from winter, and is one of four fire festivals in the wheel of the year, focusing on growing light after dark months.
The Significance of Imbolc:
☀️ Light Overcoming Darkness: It notes longer days and first spring hints, like budding plants, signaling warmth's return.
🌱 Renewal and Growth: A time to prep for new life, honoring earth's stir and the shift to growth season.
