I have found a lot of stories that I especially like about Her recently. I also found a connection with her & the Morrigan that I am going to explore by reading the associated stories that hint at the relationship. So I’m excited to have something to dive into!

I made it to Friday! The family is home today & yesterday evening I got all the wrapping except for my husband done. So I’ll be sending him on an adventure today.
I woke up & went to the front door. I looked outside & it’s snowing! There is a good layer of big & thick flakes on the ground right now. It’s been a while since we had snow on Christmas.

YOU ARE HARMONY

It’s an interesting day for me. For the first time in 20 years (+/- 2 years) that I haven’t been Santa 
with my husband. My children aren’t little anymore. I’m going, to be honest, it hurts a little bit. Everything has changed & I knew it would happen sooner or later, but I wasn’t ready for it to be this year.
We have frozen patchy 
snow layers on the ground today from yesterday. Mostly a white Christmas 
It is also the 4th day of Yule! Since it’s Saturday, a good day to spend with the family & enjoy the time we do have.

Good morning, everyone! I hope everyone has had a great weekend so far.
The snow is gone & completely turned to rain. As hard as yesterday may have been at times, it still ranks as my top Christmas. All the kids were home, my husband was home, everyone was smiling & loving their gifts. We had prime rib that was delicious for dinner & after that we watched movies & they all played card games until it was time for bed.

Danu
- For Sacred in the Mundane
The goddess Brighid is a daughter of the mother goddess Danu, from whom the ancient Tuatha De Danaan are named.
Danu supports her people thru the sacred nourishment of the Earth. She reminds her people that the Divine exists in all things. Perhaps your life is filled with mundane routine, and you feel out of touch with the sacred. Today invite in the Divine. Give reverence and gratitude as you move through your day, creating sacred in the mundane.
YOU ARE DIVINE ALL IS SACRED
It’s funny, yesterday, well for a couple of days, I have felt my connection to the Divine slipping away. The only thing I could come up with is that I was so hyper focused on my family having a good Christmas, that I forgot to really take care of me. I gave gratitude to my deities, but as far as my daily sacred things that I usually do, I let everyone having a great Christmas keep me from doing my things. Meditation, journaling, anything in my room that has to do with candles or incense or witchy anything. I was out of balance for the weekend. I’m going to actively work on bringing the Sacred back to the Mundane again.

Good morning, everyone! Start of a new week! & subsequently, the last week of the year! Almost EXACTLY! That never happens!
The cold has officially settled in here. Time for me to find my compressions or my joints will be miserable this season, I can tell by how cold it is right now! That’s okay, warm is my thing.

Fox
- For Wildness
Brighid communes with both the flora and fauna of nature. She shares a special affinity with the fox, a creature representing the mystique of the wildwood.
Brighid recognizes that you need to connect with the wild. Spend time visualizing your favorite wild place. Visit this place in your mind, engaging all of your senses. Embrace this wildness within your being and allow this primal aspect of yourself to be unencumbered and free.
YOU ARE WILD
Apparently more wild is needed in life? Didn’t I recently pull this card? I feel like it was last week or a few days ago, anyway, this is the one that decided today was going to be it’s day. Make it a point to spend at the very least a few minutes being in the wild & engaging your senses to be there.

Good morning, everyone! Tuesday is here & it’s hopefully going to have some sunshine

I went to bed sort of early. Just felt that I needed the rest & there wasn’t much else going on really. I decided to start fresh on a new day!

Laughter
- For Hope
Infused with spirit and joy, laughter is one of Brighid’s favorite healing modalities. Laughter brings us into the present moment and fills us with optimism and hope.
Brighid invites you bring laughter into your life often. Recall an amusing event from memory that tickles your funny bone. Share this story with someone with whom you can laugh and giggle. At times when you are in need of hope, recall this experience. Allow laughter to heal the moment.
YOU ARE FILLED WITH HOPE
I’m going to spend some time on this one today. Laughing is a wonderful healer & I’m sure that my daughter & I can come up with a few things to giggle about today!

Good morning, everyone! Happy Thursday! My daughter went to work with my husband today. My oldest tested negative for Covid & can go back to work. So, the pups & I are going to have the house today!
On a side note, I have been able to talk to my Dad twice this week & I felt good after talking to him. I miss my family this time of year.

Tuatha de Danaan
- For the Ancestors
The Tuatha de Danaan are the ancient fairy race of Ireland. When the Celtic people arrived, some of this race mated with the humans. On this mystical island, the fairies are the ancestors. They are one within us.
You are asked to call upon the ancestors (and the fairies) to guide you. What area of your life calls upon the wisdom of ages? Be specific in your question and ask with a pure and open heart. In the silence and the stillness, believe and receive.
YOU ARE ONE
I hope everyone has a great day!

A lush grassy expanse, interminably covered with Brighid’s green mantle, the curragh offers you the gift of freedom.
Visualize laying on this sweet and verdant plain, arms and legs spread. Allow release. You are Free. You are unencumbered by life. What does this mean to you? What does it mean to live free? Allow yourself to remember what freedom feels like. Know that you can live free.

Good morning, we have the leftovers of overnight rain outside, so everything is wet & still kind of dark & gray. The birds are talking though, so they are enjoying the lack of rain while they can this morning.
I don’t have any major plans for the day. I do have to check our fire pit to see if it stayed dry enough over the last couple of days. I just would like to have a fire before it gets to into January & the snow covers the pit.

Maiden of Spring
- For Birth
Brighid appears as a young maiden in the spring, leaving snowdrops in her wake as she moves across the land.
Now is the time for you to consider what metaphysical seeds you have been germinating. The newness and rebirth of spring has arrived in your life, bringing the opportunity to nourish and tend to these seeds. Allow yourself to give life to an idea, a dream or a new venture.
YOU ARE GIVING BIRTH TO A DREAM
I’m hoping for another easy day. I do have a couple of errands to run, but other than that I should be around all day.

Good morning, we have a snow warning. 1 – 5 inches along ‘The Cape’ starting at 10 AM. However, tomorrow is going to be sunny & in the ’50s.
My daughter is back to school 
& the men are back at work. Between Covid & the Holidays, we have some catching up to do. In MA the state will reimburse the company for up to 40 hours due to Covid. Of course, a little bit later than when my son had it, they changed the rules to only needing to be out 5 days if you show no symptoms or 10 days if you are positive. If you are vaccinated & been exposed/in close contact then you have to wear a mask for at least 5 days (& whenever required by the area/facility requires) as long as you are not showing symptoms. It’s all highly confusing because the state has rules, schools have their rules, & workplaces have their rules along with medical facilities. & they are constantly changing. Especially where each rule differs for vaccinated & unvaccinated people. 3 out of 5 people in my house are vaccinated. The other 2 are not vaccinated. So it’s like an experiment in my house with Covid rules changing all the time.

Imbolc
- For Awakening
Brighid’s Day, also known as Imbolc, is celebrated on February 1 to rejoice in the promise of spring and Brighid’s blessings.
Brighid asks you to consider what has lain dormant in your life that now needs to be (re)awakened as the Earth renews under the waxing sun. Visualize this emergence in your life, holding the vision for at least 33 seconds. Allow yourself to repeat this visualization often and feel the rekindling in your life.
YOU ARE AWAKE
I’m taking it slow today, it’s my mother’s birthday today. So I think I am going to write her a letter & just let myself feel what I need to feel to get through today.

Thank you @BryWisteria As it is my oracle card draws whether from Brighid or the Celtic Tree are so in tune with what is going on with me each day, it’s a little unsettling 
I really hope that they assist others in the coven, but just 1 other member is a blessing & well worth it each day!

Good morning, as per usual, New England weather does what it wants, especially when it pertains to Cape Cod. Our end didn’t anything worth mentioning, but lower Cape… they had the plows, sanders, laborers out until midnight.
It is however in the 20s, so compressions it is for today. & much to my daughter’s dismay, a hooded winter coat. Her argument is that the only time she needs it is if she is walking or sometimes on the bus, but she is not going to put a hat or gloves in her pockets or sleeves. They take up too much space.
