Mothers of our Mother,
Foremothers strong,
Guide our hands in yours,
Remind us how
To kindle the Hearth.
To keep it bright,
... To preserve the flame.
Your hands upon ours,
To kindle the light,
Both day and night.
~ from a Celtic blessing upon the home asked of the goddess Brighid the Hearth-Keeper. Today is her feast day, Imbolc, February 2nd, a time for fire, water, purification, poetry and all creativity ... and for noticing the lengthening days and the promise of spring to come.
