Brigid ~ one of the most cherished and revered Goddesses of all time. A pagan favorite, a christian saint.
We, as modern women, find it easy to identify with her- more so than any other goddess in antiquity. She is a healer, a mother, a gardener (of apples and herbs), a poetess, a midwife, a protector of children and livestock and a very sympathetic deity to the plights of her followers. A fire goddess. A giver of light and warmth but like fire.... volatile. A goddess that carries a hammer and commands the power of the flame, is not one that you want to upset.
We as women in today's society, are mothers, gardeners and healers. We are sympathetic but, unlike in generations past, we have a mighty voice! We are not afraid to speak up for what is right. We protect our children with the "might of the hammer", but nurture them in times of illness.
Modern women wear the many faces Brigid.
In my interpretation of Brigid...I tried to capture all of these aspects. The divine feminine, mother and hardened warrior.
May she bring you a light of hope during the dark and dismal winter months.
