Candlemass

Half-way out of the dark?  So The Doctor proclaimed on Christmas day, now we are half way out of the dark, Candlemass marking the halfway point towards the spring equinox.  Always a time for celebration and an appropriate time to make a promise for the year,  much better than at the turn of the year when bellies are full of purkey and tooding.  With St. Brigit just over our shoulder shedding a spirit of poetry, writing and creativity, Light a candle, write your promise to yourself and seal it in an envelope.  Open it when the sun is high in the sky and talk of frost is a distant memory.
