Brigit

[firebird]

Her sabbat is Imbolc. She is the Goddess of feminine aspects, home, hearth, fertility, smiths, warriors, and poetry. Because of all of these aspects, she is often considered the "Triple Goddess". She is the bride and she is attributed to growth and fertility in the Spring. In the beginning of the year she is the maiden, and by the closing year she is the crone. Baskets, or "bridal beds" are often made for corn husk figures of her dressed in white are made on Imbolc. Her mother is Dana, the Earth Mother. Both are Celtic goddesses.
