Brigid: History, Mystery, & Magick of the Celtic Goddess, by Courtney Weber
Brigid bridges us from winter to spring. She is honored by St. Brigid's Day on the First of February each year, which is also Imbolc, the halfway point between the Midwinter Solstice and the Vernal Equinox. Her day marks the first day of Spring in Ireland, and most certainly the very first stirrings of Spring.
Brigid is many things to many people. In this enticing book, Courtney Weber offers up a wide-ranging exposition and celebration of all things Brigid, who is arguably the most popular figure in Celtic mythology and religion. Meet Brigid in her various incarnations: Celtic pagan goddess, Christian saint, and Caribbean Voodoo deity. Each chapter ends with guided meditations and exercises that help readers tap into Brigid's healing powers.
"A gorgeous history and a journey with the goddess herself: a journey through ritual, meditation, and magic. Weber does a masterful job. If you are a fan of Brigid this is the book you¹ve been waiting for." —Jason Mankey, managing editor, Patheos Pagan
