Close up the Hallows Shrine (L) and Offerings Table (R).
Rivergrove I (or Chestnut Shelter), longtime home to our Imbolg Rites. We held our first Imbolg here in 1992. The price hasn't changed much since then and they've added heating.- not that we needed any on this glorious day.
The pre-Ritual briefing being held on the east side of the building (seen through our Brighid Hoop).
Liafal and Ian lead this years Celebration of Light.
Besides Brighid (and the rest of the Shining Ones), at this time we also make offerings to the Dagda. Here, Ian offers a descriptive Invocation.
The Gove Omen for Imbolg 2002.
Ritual attendees made Brighid's Crosses, which were blessed during the Rite.
