Celtic Spring 2026

 

This year

spring greets us

with a blanket of snow.

May it nourish the earth

and soothe our aching hearts.

Samhain Greetings 2025

 

May we hold the golden light 

of the witch hazel leaves 

in our hearts as the days shorten 

and we welcome the new year.

In the Celtic calendar, Samhain (pronounced sow-in) is the first day of winter and the first day of the Celtic new year. The seasons begin on the cross-quarter days, the midpoints between the equinoxes and solstices.

Autumn Greetings 2025

 

May the tender days 

of autumn bring us 

comfort and calm.

Autumn (Celtic) Greetings

 It is Lammas, Lughnasadh, the first day of Celtic Autumn.

Let us open our hearts to nature’s beauty and nurture the light within.

Summer Solstice 2025

 

The Celtic calendar helps us understand

 that light and dark are intertwined,

that the longest day begins

the journey to the longest night. 

Let us circle through the year

in communion with nature and each other.
