Not Brigid but the magnificent cairn of another Irish woman of strength and resilience...Queen Maebh who is said to be buried here upright with a spear in her hand aimed at her enemies in Ulster. #Knocknarea #stbrigitsday

Happy #stBrigitsday and #imbolc blessings to you ✨❄️🌱

Two hands each holding up a completed Brigit’s Cross (Crosóg Bhríde) against a white wall. The cross on the right (made by OPs partner) is slightly larger and neater than the one on the left (OPs), with less gaps between the woven rushes. The crosses have a square centre with 4 points coming out from it, with the loose ends of the rushes on each point tied together with twine.

OPs hand holding a miniature Brigit’s Cross (Crosóg Bhríde) with a white and brown coffee table in the background. The cross is woven with a square pattern in the centre, and 4 points coming out from it. The loose ends of the rushes on each point are tied together with twine.

Our Brigit’s Crosses for the day that’s in it! Got some fresh rushes from a pond not far from us so they were pretty easy to work with
Here’s to Spring 🌷🏞️🐣
