Imbolc, Authoritarianism, and the Need for Priestesses (VIDEO)
Explore how the Pagan holiday of Imbolc calls us to clarity in turbulent times and why being a priestess matters now more than ever.
In this video, we hold a space for deep reflection on Imbolc, the sabbat associated with Brighid — the goddess of fire, illumination, and clear seeing. As snow melts into spring, Imbolc invites us to cultivate inner light.
Amid current events in Minneapolis and across the United States, this video invites spiritually attuned people — especially those who feel called to the archetype of the priestess — to offer grounded presence rather than frantic reaction.
What does it mean to hold space for clarity, to feel our feelings, and to stay anchored in our center while the world feels chaotic? How do we let truth and compassion guide us when stories are contested, when fear and rage swirl, and when human beings are suffering on all sides?
I also drew some oracle cards to bring deeper insight into how we can approach this moment — not with denial, but with awareness, resilience, and purpose. Whether you resonate with the mythic language of Brighid or you simply want support staying clear and soulful in a noisy world, this video is an invitation to stand as a witness and clarifier, to tend your inner flame, and to care for yourself as you care for the world.
Please share with others who are seeking spiritual grounding and clarity in uncertain times.

I see your necklace, to protect you from the haters. Your wisdom is inspiring. I’m going out on my patio to listen to your wisdom circle for the week…Getting my Imbolc vibes together.
I’m a Hospice nurse. It’s been a challenging week, I helped a little boy who’s been suffering with a brain tumor for years. I helped him pass on, and his family to accept. You help me do what I need to do. You help me gather strength from the right places. Thank you so much.
