We certainly did! Was one of those moments where one thinks ‘Why can’t that go on forever?’ The energies of winter still clinging on with those of early spring clearly on the wax were so strong, you could practically touch them and put in your pocket to be with you for a long time!

It sounds as though you had an extremely beautiful ritual.

There is another version which includes Gwyn’s poem, but at present do not have the necessary permissions to include it. But we might have soon!

Wonderful video, something to be proud off. Just wish we could have had Gwyn’s welsh metered poem as well. But never mind, it does capture the feeling and the energies of the day very well!

I’d like to say how much I enjoyed our Imbolc/Gwyl Ffraid celebrations, and how much the day meant to me – I think it was one of our best ritual days for ages. Here are some things that made it special for me…

The waves on the lake and the wind in the trees…

Hauntingly beautiful poetry from Gwyn …

Everyone’s company in marking/celebrating Imbolc, but especially to Gillian for making it such a meaningful day!
