✋Stop! Think first, then act!


I'm so sorry. I knew today was Thursday. I knew today was 1st May. I knew today was Bealtaine.

I completely forgot how irresponsible it is to recommend buying anything today!!

According to Irish tradition, butter stealing has strong effect on May morning. So don't spend anything (i.e. give away your wealth and prosperity for the year) between sunset May eve and sunset May day. Which is a pain in the neck cos today is pay-day and I've had my eye on some workout gear for weeks!!!

But I'm not risking it and neither should you.

So, please - don't buy anything from me til after sunset tonight 😏

Bríd libh

P. S. But, y'know, once sunset hits tonight, you can go back to consideration of the Brigid's Forge Collective for 2025!

Hi, I'm Orlagh, of Brigid's Forge

A black and white picture of the RMS Carpathia, with steam coming from her chimney and 4 sail masts evident to the lay eye

I read a post on Facebook earlier and it's been playing on my mind, since. It's about the ship, RMS Carpathia, the one that rescued the survivors from the Titanic. And it serves as a teachable moment I think, given the state of the world, and various states within that world. The Carpathia was about 4 hours away from the Titanic when they received the distress call, by any reasonable engineer's estimate. But they shut down all other power to the ship except for engines and dining rooms to...

I'm getting a lot of questions around the time commitment for this program. And I get it, I really do. You have a life. A job. Kids maybe. Parents. Sick relatives. Caring responsibilities no one else is aware of. It's not the right time to devote six months to your spiritual growth. Can I let you into a secret? It's never the right time. Seriously. And if you leave it too long, Brigid has been known to take things into her own hands and create said time for you. Which is less than pleasant...

(Yes, my name is meant to be in the subject line, not yours!) I'm getting a lot of questions about if this program is for you if you are or used to be: ✝️Christian ☦️Orthodox ✡️Jewish ☪️Muslim ⚛️Science-oriented 🕉️Ayurvedic 🛕Hindu ⛩️Shinto ... or indeed any other religion, spirituality or creed. And ok, I'm going to be honest. I talk a lot about Brigid during the Brigid's Path Collective. So, at the very least, you need to be comfortable with that, before you join. But then, my whole thing is...
