Where Samhain asked what are you ready to lay down, Imbolc asks something different.
What are you ready to begin?
What has been quietly gestating through the long dark of winter, waiting for the right moment to move toward the light?
What intention are you ready to plant, to tend, and to trust across the turning of the year ahead?
This is also the season of clearing. Of opening the windows and letting the fresh air move through. Of making space in our homes, and in ourselves, for what is coming. Gently setting down what no longer needs to be carried. Freeing our hands for what is new.
At the heart of this evening is a simple and meaningful ritual of intention and renewal.
Together we will open sacred space, call in the energy of this threshold, and create room for each woman to get clear on what she is calling into being for the year ahead.
You may arrive knowing exactly what you want to plant. You may arrive with only a feeling, a direction, a quiet pull toward something you cannot yet name. Both are welcome here. The circle itself has a way of clarifying what the mind alone cannot reach.
Imbolc offers a threshold to cross consciously, held, witnessed, and connected to the season and to each other.
It asks us to honour new beginnings, while also acknowledging that every beginning requires us to first make space.
In this circle we gather in the ancient way of women.
We will open a gentle and grounded space to plant our seeds of intention, to feel the rising energy of spring beginning to move through the land and through our own bodies, and to step across the threshold of this new cycle with clarity, with companionship, and with the quiet courage that Imbolc asks of us.
