So what did you all do for Imbolc?

I ask as my celebrations have been set back a few days ... and I'm still a bit unsure what I'm should do.

My wife got some bulbs today, perhaps I should 'ritually help' her plant 'em!

i did most of it in my head and kept it short cas i had to go to london to work.
at sunrise i greeted the sun with a bit of a morning salute thing. i meditated on the whole imblc thing. i lit a white candle dedicating it to the god and his mother and carried it deosil 3 times around my living space inviting them into my home, i then left the candle to burn out in the open window. i faced the east, to therising suyn for most of the ritual.
thats a crap explanation but its kinda hard to explain the thinbgs going on in my ether

Helloooo!

I had my little celebration on Thursday night...well..Friday morning (just after midnight), cos it was the only time I was on my own..

I used the ritual from Scott Cunninghams Wicca:Guide For the solitary prac....& added my own bits where I felt the need!..it was all very enjoyable anyway...lots of candles (I do love my candles!)

All day Thursday & Friday I was thinking about the whole "Imbolc" thing & what it meant...so I suppose you could say I was celebrating for a few days really!

I hope you all enjoyed it

Bright blessings...

Well, I packed my kids off to school and dashed home coz my youngest only stays til lunch time. I prepared my living room and gathered all my tools. (nosey neighbours means I have to do it indoors unfortunately)
Borrowed abit from Doreen Valiente, and went round the room like a mad woman with my broom sweeping away all I could think of. Then I sat down and meditated a while and closed the circle. Felt good!
I just kept finding bits of twig lying around for a few days but it was worth it.
