"In The Belly" ~ A Cleansing + Purifying Imbolc Tincture
Imbolc, the Gaelic festival on the wheel of the year calendar speaks of the
promise of spring, even as winter lingers. Its a wonderful time to begin an early spring cleanse and purification of the body. Imbolc literally translates to "In the belly" in old Irish.
In the belly of the Earth - the Goddess - an awakening is stirring. Think
of the goddess as if she is stretching her arms out wide as she stirs from
her cozy earth winter bed. It is time for the earth – and us, to rise and to
enliven from the winter dormancy and create life anew. It’s a time of The
Goddess who is pregnant with hope, light, love, rebirth and purification.
What is dead is reborn, and what is old becomes new.
The herbs in my Imbolc IN THE BELLY blend help this process to cleanse and enrich the blood, promote circulation and help spiritual awakening.
ORGANIC INGREDIENTS:
Orris Root, Angelica Root, Holy Basil, Chamomile + Hyssop in grain alcohol. Made in ceremony and infused with reiki and crystal energy.
Take 1 dropperful per day in water or tea for the first month of Imbolc season, which starts around February 1st in the Northern Hemisphere. But can be used anytime of the year cleansing and purifying calls out to you.
Many Imbolc Blessings to you all.
