The Quickening: Imbolc and the Fertility of the Land
The Quickening: Imbolc and the Fertility of the Land
Sunday, February 4 at 7:00 pm ET with 30-day recording available
At Samhain, blessing and fertility flowed down from this world into the Otherworld, beginning the dark season of the old Irish year, that will end at Bealtaine when life comes flowering back into this world, flowing upward from below. The festival of Imbolc marks the midpoint of the dark season, when the lengthening sunlight reaches down through snow and earth, and, often invisible to us, life begins to stir – like the moment of "quickening" when the mother first feels the child moving in the womb. Weaving together folklore and spiritual ecology, we will explore the meaning and the blessings of this ancient holiday.
