German: Anmerkung für meine deutschen Leser. Das Brigids Cross hat keine Verbindung zum Hakenkreuz und ist in Irland ein fester religiöser Bestandteil.

Wer mich kennt, weiß, dass ich bekennender Antifaschist bin.

The weather forecast for today was great, so we visited Inchydoney Beach this afternoon. While it looks like the beach isn’t busy, cars were parked all the way from the hotel down to the public car park at the other end of the beach. It would be easy to think it was the middle of the summer, as there were so many vehicles!

Yesterday was St. Brigid’s Day in Ireland, so it was nice to see St. Brigid’s Cross drawn on the sand, but I’d forgotten about IMBOLC. You can read more about it on Wikipedia.

On this clear St Brigid's day — at the outset of this Year of the Wood Snake — the January installment of Polylith arrives.

Consider the number seven as a mythological entity:

An excellent piece on the history of the 'other' Irish saint, Brigid, whose life is commemorated on February 1 each year.

"In Kerry, as in many other parts of Ireland, the eve of St Brigid’s Day was just as important as the day itself. ‘Biddy Boys’ went from house to house with an effigy of the saint, a doll made from old rags or a butter churn dressed up. They would mask their faces with pieces of cloth, using straw or rush hats to keep the veils on."
