Imbolc has arrived and so has the next installation of Sabbat Habits. This two night event will take you through the history, craft & ritual of Imbolc...with a heavy emphasis on brigid mythology, garden protection & seed blessing.

Tonight is night one and we’re joined by our friend Karen (@pineshadowpagan) to hear about some traditions & origin stories of Brigid. Then we’ll jump into our craft where we’ll build a garden protecting ButzeFrau (a take on the PA dutch traditional Butzemann). You’ll make this little scarecrow out of sticks and materials from your own garden, then use it throughout the growing season and BURN it on Samhain to close out it’s cycle.

As usual, Karen and I have put together a 10+ page e-book all about Imbolc. You’ll find materials list & step by step instructions for the Butzemann craft as well as a seed blessing ritual. Come back tomorrow for more on the naming conventions and information on poppet magic + our collective seed blessing ritual!
