Sinless x the goat witch and the sinner Once upon a time, in a remote village nestled amidst towering mountains, there lived a peculiar trio - Sinless, the goat witch, and the sinner. Each character had their own unique attributes and quirks that set them apart from the others. Sinless, a young orphan girl, possessed an irresistible charm and goodness that radiated from within her. She was adorned with an ethereal beauty, with her porcelain skin, eyes as blue as the clear sky, and flowing golden locks that cascaded down her back. Sinless had a captivating aura that drew people towards her like moths to a flame. The goat witch, on the other hand, was a mysterious creature with a twisted sense of humor.
I am burning the past
on its last remaining day:
Unsent letters
in unaddressed envelopes
Old journals,
pain pressed between pages
like dried flowers
Outdated bills, lists, memos
emptied from their files—
Time's linearity seared.
Whether you identify as a witch or pagan yourself, or if you re merely curious how this festival can support your mental and emotional health, Imbolc is a wonderful time to get in tune with the natural rhythm of the seasons and start nourishing yourself with intention and compassion as we step into the season of new beginnings. Forge and anvil, grove and well, we invoke Brighid of the bright knowledge, triple Goddess of midwifery, smithcraft and healing to help us stay grounded and find our balance between savouring and protecting the Earth.
The goat witch, on the other hand, was a mysterious creature with a twisted sense of humor. She had the body of a woman but with the horns and hooves of a goat. Legend had it that she possessed ancient powers and could communicate with the spirits of the land.
Imbolc, Candlemas or Candelaria:
A Celebration
of Returning Light
Here we are in seed time, dream time, looking for the cracks of light that tell us to stretch out and grow. We are invited to consider this possibility: What if there is nothing wrong? What if there is no "too slow"?
What if we live a miracle every single day,
and we don’t have to earn it?
As the first shoots of tentative growth begin to lift, and we sense the beginning sparks of possibility, of new ways of being, we may feel the itch to create a lengthy to-do list for a new year. Resist and sit, curled and waiting.
Uncover what is enough.
Not in the sense of playing too small, but the kind of enough that allows our hearts to expand and our shoulders to loosen, that allows creativity to blaze and joy to bloom, the kind of enough that opens space in our lives to hold ourselves and our seed dreams. Darkness and silence can hold both the sparks of our dreams and the embers of our hopes. We are our own seeds of promise.
