✨🍃 Imbolc oil is perfect for renewal, creativity, purification & new beginnings.
Making your own Imbolc oil is a beautiful way to honour this threshold and call fresh energy into your life.
I like to decorate my bottles with handmade trinkets that mean something to me. In this case a pendant my son bought me and beads and thread plaited in a combination of teal and purple. These colours signify a powerful, balanced blend of emotional healing, clear communication, and higher consciousness. 🥰✨

Items I’ve used here ~

A carrier oil, in this case, jojoba.

1 small glass jar or bottle
Optional herbs (use dried / less moisture):

🍃• Rosemary – clarity & purification
🍃• Basil – new beginnings & growth
🍃• Bay leaf – intention & manifestation
✨• Chamomile – peace & gentle renewal
✨ • Lavender - calming & protecting
🍃• Nettle - dispel negativity & strength

✨ • Clear quartz – amplify intentions
✨• Amethyst – spiritual clarity

Welcoming Imbolc ✨

💛

The first day of the year arrives like a quiet pause in the turning of time—a moment suspended between what has ended and what has not yet begun. The hours feel stretched and unmeasured; the world holds its breath, and even the smallest movement seems to echo.

Shadows of the old year linger in frost and still air, while the new year waits—unseen but present—just beyond the horizon. Some call this the Day Between Breaths: a gentle in-between where possibility pulses slowly, tender and alive.

On this day, the world itself seems to listen. Rivers move more quietly, trees hold their frozen branches in stillness, and even the wind softens to a low murmur. If you wander through the woods at dawn, you might notice faint impressions in the frost—paths never taken, chances not yet arrived—and tiny glimmers of light hovering just above the ground.

The first day of the year is not a starting line. It is a pause—a soft exhale between what has been and what is quietly forming. In these earliest hours, the veil between what is and what could be feels thinnest. You may glimpse the shimmer of an unwalked path, hear the faint voice of intention, or feel time slow until it matches your own breath.

Here, there is no urgency. No resolving. Only noticing. Let your thoughts drift like snow settling on bare branches, like light resting on a frost-lined windowpane. Allow your heart to remember its own rhythm. The air itself feels alive, carrying subtle guidance, gentle encouragement, and the hush of hidden magic.

Step slowly, or remain still. Breathe with the day. Listen for what stirs within. The first day is not about doing—it is about being. And in being here, you honor the unseen, the tender, and the quietly waiting possibilities of the year to come.

Silence has a voice..

When someone tells you that they want to be alone, honor this.
Don’t take it as an affront on you (that is ego) -
They need space to reconcile, to grieve, to unfold some personal pain.
Our only job is to support and respect that space.
Forcing the situation is dangerous.
They will come to you when (and if) they are ready.
If not, loving them from an arms distance is all we can do.

Sunrise at the Retreat ☀️❄️

The longest night is here. 🌙🖤✨❄️

And just like that…the sacred cycle begins again.🌀
From this point forward, daylight will slowly begin to increase as we begin the slow march toward spring.

Light cannot exist without the dark, the dark only exists because of the light.

Ebb and flo, yin and yang, wax and wain.

Light your fires and burn your candles.

The Winter Solstice is here. ✨✨✨
