Awakening Brigid: Oak Morganite
A capture of part of our Imbolc Ritual- invoking, embodying, honoring, awakening Brigid- The Goddess of Fire, the Coming of Spring, Healing, Poetry and Smithcraft. The Cailleach drinks from the sacred well and melts into her renewed form- Brigid. Death as transformation.
Maintaining the balance of darkness and light.
Imbolc Blessings.

Copper electroplated Oak branches (protection, strength, wisdom), Morganite stone (healing, compassion), steel chain, lobster claw clasp, wild tag. OOAK.
All metals are nickel, lead, cadmium free.
The patina on the metalwork is caused by oxidization. The patina that has been applied is not permanent- but also the development of a new one is unavoidable. As you wear your adornment, it will transform you and with you! Patination helps tell the story of an item and adds value.

Each Amulet comes with a Brigid's Wheel, handmade by Nessa Lee @song.of.the.selkie
The Wheels are woven from the native grasses, oats and grains of the land where she is currently living in Northern California, far from the green shores of Her Emerald Isle. Her followers would have used whatever materials they had on hand to make their wheels, Brigid being a resourceful domestic goddess. Her wheels/crosses would have been crafted the eve before Imbolc (roughly Jan 31st-2nd) and hung about the home to invite the Goddess and Her blessings inside, as well as for protection.
