| Imbolc or Candlemas Imbolc is a Fire Festival and we invoke the Irish Fire Goddess Bride who we call "Brigid". This marks the coming of Spring. This Sabbat represents new beginnings and spiritual growth. At this time the Goddess changes from Crone to Maiden with hope and promise of what is to come in life. We celebrate her return with Candles, hence the name "Candlemas". The tradition colours of Imbolc are white and yellow for the Goddess and light green for the God, who is once again young and spirited. The traditional foods of this Sabbat are; lamb, young fresh vegetables, poppyseed cakes and breads and herbal teas, dairy products.
