I'm dedicated to helping women in particular develop their spiritual path in life. I'm focused heavily on Brigid in Ireland, although not all my followers are! I teach, speak, coach and mentor people to help them along their own individual path, based on what lore we have, but also allowing for each individual path to develop as it needs to.
🔥Awaken the flame - and yes, it is time to act!

I had planned to send this email yesterday, but honestly, my plans got completely derailed with the whole Manchester attacks thing. (No, I'm still not linking to a story) But since it's October, my mind is turning towards Imbolc. Yes, I know, that's the last thing you expected - although if you've been on the email list a few years, you'll know where this is going. Here's the thing. Samhain, for me, marks the beginning of the preparation for Imbolc season. It's also the time I spend dreaming and planning for the year ahead. Noting what's working, what's not, what needs to change, what can stay the same. And most years recently, I've brought a few of ye on the journey with me, on the Awakening the Flame course. (And there's a payment option as well) What do you get? 💚 A monthly class outlining the exercises to use during the month 💚 Extra resources and meditations to build around your preparation 💚 Whatsapp group - if you choose to join - to ask any questions or find any last minute information 💚 Small class, usually fewer than 10 people (if it's 12 or more, I break into cohorts) 💚 Practical help through the month, as any questions come up 💚 All classes recorded so even if the time doesn't work, you can still catch up OK, the Whatsapp is new, but the rest is the same as normal! Want to come along with me for the journey? Click here to sign up! Bríd libh Órlagh P. S. We start on 1st November, so don't forget to sign up! Payment plan available!

Hi, I'm Orlagh, of Brigid's Forge
I'm dedicated to helping women in particular develop their spiritual path in life. I'm focused heavily on Brigid in Ireland, although not all my followers are!

Yes, I'm still on about energy and things starting to grow today! I can't help it, I can feel the energy moving and shifting and it's fun! Plus, you know, it's that time of year when I get geared up for talking about Brigid non-stop, for 2 full months. (I know, you lot are used to listening to me all the time, but other people aren't!) Anyway, it's a quick email today, because I'm working on something very exciting. I'm putting together an Imbolc retreat. I did this last year, it was 6 hours,...
Today's blog post is about ascending into Imbolc. Now, I know - we don't usually think about ascending to Imbolc. We might consider descending around Samhain, but if there's a sense of descent into the earth for the winter, we really should counteract that with a period of ascent as well. And given Imbolc is about that period where we're looking at nature, new growth, rising energy in the world in general... it makes sense to me to link it to ascent. (It's also a great time to check out your...
Yes, I'm getting back into some sort of sensible routine now! Although I spent the entire weekend and my two days off last week on the couch, struggling with a cold. Or possibly flu and the vaccine was doing its job. (Yes, this is a pro-vaccine space, in case you were in any doubt!) But I've been having loads of conversations over the last few weeks over the guilt people feel around Christmas, and women in their 40's/ 50's in particular. So, that's what today's blog post is about. Guilt,...
