Brigid Cross

Brigid is the Celtic Goddess of fertility, childbirth, creativity, fire, arts and crafts.

In Celtic tradition, Brigid Crosses (otherwise known as Sun Wheels) were hung above the entrance of dwellings at Imbolc, which marks the midway point between the winter solstice and spring equinox.

It is believed that Brigid would bless the homes with Sun Wheels; bringing protection, good health and fortune, and warding off disease, bad spirits and hunger.

I have some available to buy in my studio. You can also learn how to make your own at a workshop I’m running as part of a yoga retreat with Jackie Yoga Let's Flow: ‘Renewal and New Beginnings’ on 26 January, 2-6.30pm at Coalport Village Hall. Tickets are available to buy here and further details about the retreat can be found below.
