Celebrating sabbats -- in this case Imbolc -- is important to witches. Our power is natural and being in sync with the earth is essential.

Imbolc is one of the greater Sabbats, celebrated as the halfway point towards spring and lands, yearly, on February 1/2. Though not as famous outside of Pagan communities as Samhain and Beltane, this festival breaks up the winter season and helps point us towards preparing the fresh beginnings of spring.

Coming next in the Wheel of the Year after Yule, the return of the light, is Imbolc on February 2, the time of renewal and preparation.

Imbolc: Rituals, Recipe & Lore for Brigid’s Day is a small book packed with information for Imbolc and beyond.
