Imbolc 2009

Imbolc...

The mid point between the Winter Solstice
and the Spring Equinox...

This weekend, I dreamed...
that we were given all these pure white, fluffy bunnies...
with pink noses...

These weren't just your average white bunnies...
for these bunnies laid solid gold eggs...

fluffy white bunnies
and solid gold eggs on the eve of Imbolc...

How I love the symbolism of my unconscious...
tapping into ancient myths,
planting seeds in the fertile soil of my mind,
for the Spring yet to come... where life springs anew...
beauty birthed and received with joy...
