Gaelic/Celtic celebration
1st February marks the start of Imbolc.
Halfway between the winter solstice and spring equinox.
At Art for Wellness, we love the countdown to spring and celebrating the Celtic goddess Brigid.
Welcoming new beginnings in nature and warmer weather on the way
Awakening Creativity for Imbolc
As the days slowly stretch longer and the first whispers of spring stir beneath the frost, Imbolc arrives as a time of renewal and inspiration.
Celebrated from February 1st to sunset on February 2nd, this ancient festival marks the turning of the seasons, where winter begins to loosen its grip and nature awakens once more.
Traditionally honouring Brigid, the goddess of fertility, poetry, and craftsmanship, Imbolc is a time to ignite creativity and welcome fresh beginnings.
At Art For Wellness, we embrace this shift with open hearts and open sketchbooks. Just as Imbolc signifies light returning to the world, creativity flourishes when we allow ourselves to explore new ideas and artistic expressions.
It’s the perfect time to set creative intentions, experiment with new materials, and create artwork symbolising hope, growth, and transformation. Whether painting the first buds of spring, crafting candles to represent the returning light, or journaling aspirations for the season ahead, Imbolc is a powerful reminder that creativity and renewal go hand in hand.
