Brigid - Goddess of Flames, Healing and Creative Arts - Celtic Mythology

Brigid was the Goddess of Flames, Healing and creative arts. She is also known as "Brigit" and is asociated with Kildare Town. Today, many pagans honor her on the 2nd of February, a holiday known as “Imbolc” or “The Welcome of the Lord”, or “Saint Brigid's day”.

Imbolc is Celebrated on February 1st. For me, her Celtic and original version is better and more accepted by me :-)

You completely missed that she is the goddess of smithing and crafts, in particular blacksmithing. Her tri face is healing, poetry and smithing.

So weird really that the christians just came in and distorted her like that to fit what they wanted for power and control. They even had her getting baptised by St Patrick, thus ensuring her being secondary to a man of course. Glad many Irish only half bought it. Interesting to hear what men did trying to take away control of st brigid too... who was in charge of the monks for awhile, the bishop couldn't have that! oh dear
