Imbolc

Happy Imbolc, everybody! Imbolc is a celebration of the early signs of spring. It is a time of purification and dedication. Brigid, goddess of healing, poetry, and smithcraft, is closely tied to this holiday. I'll be celebrating later today with a simple ritual, some wine, and a cleansing of my new apartment. Anyone else have any plans for Imbolc today?

That was informative. I didn't know there was such a thing. :] Hmm let's see. Spring isn't here as yet but we'll celebrate it with Basant i.e. Kite Flying as is common in India and Pakistan. A few people have already died because of carelessness but still. :D yay. :P
