You mentioned your joints not always working. Mine used to flare up to the point I couldn't write. Gave up gluten and ALL joint pain went away in a matter of days. If I accidentally get gluten, my hands stop working next day.
Did you Crochet your altar cloth?! I hadn’t thought to do that... 🤦🏻♀️ Thank you for sharing this! I’m new at this and have had no less than three signs pointing me toward Brigid as a focus of my devotions. Your video was both helpful and enlightening. 💜
Yes I did! It is one of two that I use for myself right now and I've got another one in the works -- well, the plans laid out in my head. I'm glad you found my video! I have a few more videos on my channel relating to my work with Brigid and how I honor Her in my life if you want to check them out ❤
There are two books I recommend starting with when learning about Brigid. One is the Pagan Portals Brigid book by Morgan Daimler. The other is Brigid by Courtney Weber. Both books are a great resource to help you learn more about Brigid but they also have wonderful bibliographies to give you more places to go for information.
Deeply serene and beautiful glimpse into elements of your daily practice. TYFS. 💓 What you said regarding not checking your phone in the AM really resonated with me. While I do use SM, I do not have notifications turned on for any site, and make a point to carve out blocks of time in my week (when possible/desired) to use SM, as I rarely hop on and off it throughout the day. Doing so just doesn’t feel organic or productive to me personally. Plus, when it comes to the AM, I derive so much more by beginning my day outside, at my altar, crafting, meditating, exercising, or otherwise doing something calming + meaningful. ✨🕯✨
Sometimes I wish I could just unplug from all social media for a week and detox but I'm trying to build a community 😆 and I can't do that if I don't use social media. The next best thing for me is to just not use it in the morning. It does help that most mornings after my coffee are reserved for my daughter's homeschooling, but I don't always follow this rule. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, too 🌺
@@RoundtheCauldron Hand on my heart, I get that big time and can sincerely relate to where you're coming from. I like to set aside at least one day a week when I don't go online at all. Does this always happen? Realistically, no. But, frequently it does and I find that even just that relatively brief breather can do one's psyche, soul, and energy levels alike a world of good. 😃 Thank you very much for your reply. It's a pleasure to connect with you here. May you have a serene, beautiful, and abundantly blessed Imbolc season. 💛
Absolutely 🥰 I think I can probably do a day a week, for sure. I might try to get that into my schedule lol and I'm always happy to reply and chat and I wish you a blessed Imbolg season as well 💝
@@RoundtheCauldron Thank you so much! Likewise all the way (re: chatting). I'm following you on IG now as well and look forward to checking out your content on that platform, too. That's great! At first, a day sans internet (or at least SM) can seem a bit alien, but I found it got easier and felt wholly natural in no time at all. Honestly, a lot of weeks, I now strive for 2 (or even more) days, though that isn't always possible. If it isn't, I'll try to schedule a weekend (or other block of 2 - 3 days) in the not too distant future to take off from the web/tech in general. Long weekends in particular are often excellent fits, I find, for doing this. 😃
@@WhisperingWitchASMR awesome! I'll follow you back and I'm always up to chat! I'll probably do a Sunday sans social media. That would probably be the best day for me lol
From what I've read, Druantia is an archetype created by Robert Graves in his book The White Goddess. There aren't any historical records of Druantia worship in any Celtic country, and it seems she wasn't a historical or ancient Goddess at all, rather a modern creation by a problematic author.
This is going to depend, actually. In my practice and belief system, there is no real judgment for good or evil. We just live our lives and then we're done with it. It's a bit more complicated with the Otherworld stuff, the transition for life to death, and what's on the other side, but there is no concept of Heaven and Hell in my belief system. Other traditions will have differing opinions and mythology surrounding the afterlife. For example, Norse beliefs have the different realms. Valhalla is reserved for those that died an honorable death in battle, Hel is reserved for those that died of old age or just regular ol' people, etc. You'll have to figure out what you believe and what tradition you follow ❤️
I’ve been wondering, what do you do with the offerings when you’ve offered them? I don’t really know how to formulate myself but can I just throw it out after a while and put something else in?
It really depends on what it is. Usually, food stuff gets thrown out unless it's safe to leave outside (that's rare). Anything I make stays on the altar. Anything written down either stays on the altar or gets burned. And then anything I do I just do. I can do a video on offerings if you're interested!
@@RoundtheCauldron Water or especially milk would be my question. I'm assuming it would be considered more respectful to pour it down the drain after a period than leaving it. I'm fairly new to all this
@@matthewmorris5893 Liquid offerings, unless unsafe or given other instructions from the spirit the offering is for, usually gets poured down the drain or given back to the Earth. I leave water on the altar for up to a week, sometimes less depending on if it gets stagnant quickly or if bugs get into it. Living in Florida, this happens sometimes lol anything else I try not to let it go back. So, if I were to leave milk as an offering, I would try not to let it spoil or only leave it on the altar for 24 hours. I hope that helps!
As a Blasian let me say this. Im one of the very few Black men in the world who has NOT got a single drop of Roman Catholic blood in me. But many Irish people have told me that the essence of being Irish is to be CATHOLIC. Many Irish people have told me the following: There's no such thing as an Irish born-again Christian - because one is the opposite of the other. Theres no such thing as an Irish Muslim - because one is the opposite of the other. There's no such thing as an Irish Jehovah's Witness - because one is the opposite of the other. There's no such thing as an Irish Buddhist - because one of the opposite of the other. So following their own line of logic its therefore obvious that there's no such thing as an Irish pagan - because one is the opposite of the other. This lady should do a video on what exactly it means to be Irish/celtic in terms of ESSENCE. After all the Irish and Scots were the Original Celtic peoples of Britain.
Hi there. First off, "this lady" has a name and I would appreciate if you used it. Secondly, I can't do a video on what it means to be Irish because I'm an American. What I mean when I say I'm an "Irish Pagan" is that my pagan practice and the gods I worship are those from Ireland where I have ancestral, but not cultural, ties. I can very clearly tell you that anyone that says to be Irish is to be Catholic is incorrect. While it is impossible to separate the Catholicism from Irish culture (I mean, to say "Hello" in Gaeilge is Dia duit. This literally translates to, "God be with you,"), Catholicism isn't the marker of being Irish. An Irish person can have whatever faith or religion they like! To be Irish is to be born/raised in Ireland and in Irish culture. That's it. Also, I'd just like to point out real quick that polytheism, the worship of many gods, came before Catholicism in Ireland and it is apparent when we look at Brighid the Goddess and Brighid the Saint. I can point you in the direction of native Irish polytheists and pagans if you'd like. They would be able to give you an answer, if they're willing, to your question of what it means to be Irish. I cannot.

Absolutely beautiful! It's wonderful to see other people's daily routines, especially when it comes to working with deities. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you ❤ it can be helpful to see the practices of others! I'm glad you liked it.
This was lovely. I've recently started working with Brigid. I keep a bottle of Irish whiskey on my altar so I can pour out offerings to my deities.
I enjoyed this video quite a lot I mainly leave offerings to the morrigan and i have an altar space set up for her
This was so inspiring and lovely to see your routine thank you so much for sharing xx
I'm glad you liked it Beverely!
Thank you for sharing part of your practice with us. It really is beautiful.
Thank you ❤
Thank you for this gentle and focused sharing; and i absolutely LOVE your coffee cup!!
Aww thank you! I'm glad you liked the video -- and coffee cups are one thing I will collect if I'm not careful 😂 I can't resist a cute or funny one!
You mentioned your joints not always working. Mine used to flare up to the point I couldn't write. Gave up gluten and ALL joint pain went away in a matter of days. If I accidentally get gluten, my hands stop working next day.
Interesting! Mine is caused by a combination of things. I'm glad you've found the cause for yours 😊

What would you recommend for a beginner? I’m felt called to Brigid, and am planning to set up an altar for her this weekend

Thank you for sharing. A daily practice can be very helpful.
I definitely agree!
I have that oracle deck! It's the first ever deck I bought for myself, and I had an immediate feeling of connection when it arrived.
I'm happy you connect with it! It's not my favorite deck to use but the imagery is beautiful!

No problem! ❤
Pagans are so awesome...
Nice video
Nice to see other people of the native faith still honouring the true deities of these lonely but lovely isles
Are those willow trees?
No, they are oak trees with Spanish Moss hanging from the limbs.
Does the Druantia worship still exists? I just learned about her and she’s very interesting.
From what I've read, Druantia is an archetype created by Robert Graves in his book The White Goddess. There aren't any historical records of Druantia worship in any Celtic country, and it seems she wasn't a historical or ancient Goddess at all, rather a modern creation by a problematic author.
Lovely
I am a Pagan but struggling with this question.....do we believe In end of the world and reward for good and punishment for evil?
This is going to depend, actually. In my practice and belief system, there is no real judgment for good or evil. We just live our lives and then we're done with it.
