Interested in connecting with others to feel the pulse of the land and to honour the goddess Brigit?

Then join us in a public ritual to mark the coming of Spring and honour the association between the goddess Brigit and this time of year!

Where? Car park at The National Stud/Japanese Gardens, Tully East, Tully, Co. Kildare, R51 KX25 (parking is free).

After meeting at the car park, we will walk to the Wayside Well for our ritual.

Feel free to bring a drum, bodhrán, castanets or other noisemakers/musical instruments - we will include these in our ritual. You could also bring a Bríd's Brat, or other piece of material - the ritual will incorporate a cleansing/blessing with the well water. 

Please dress appropriately. This gathering is weather dependent.

Who Is Brigit? We find Brigit described in the medieval text Sanas Chormaic (Cormac’s Glossary) as:
 
“Brigit: a female poet, daughter of the Dagda. She is Brigit the female sage of poetry, or woman of poetic skill … Brigit, a goddess whom the filid (learned poets) used to worship. For very great and very splendid was her application to the art. Therefore they used to call her goddess of poets, whose sisters were Brigit the female physician and Brigit woman of smithcraft, daughters of the Dagda, from whose names almost all the Irish used to call Brigit a goddess.” 

If you would like to bring a piece of material with you, to bless in the well water, please do so. 

Our gathering is open to all. PLR is inclusive of all Pagan paths.
We are a LGBTQIA+ friendly organisation.

There is no charge for this event.

Children are very welcome but must be supervised at all times by parents or guardians.

If you would like to be actively involved in the ritual, please let us know. Vinnie Woods, Paula Flanagan and Fionnuala O'Regan will be co-ordinating the ritual.
