Imbolc is an ancient Celtic festival associated with the goddess Brigid, celebrating the beginning of spring and held on or around 1 February. The celebration of Imbolc originates from the Celts. Imbolc symbolizes the halfway point between the winter solstice (Yule) and the spring equinox (Ostara). The word "imbolc" means "in the belly of the Mother," because the seeds of spring are beginning to stir in the belly of Mother Earth. #imbolc #irishfestivals #privatetourofdonegal #privatetourofirelan
