The Irish Triple Goddess Brigid (also spelled Brigit, Brighid, or Bride) is the Goddess of poetry, healing and smithcraft. She is the flame, the physical fire and heat of the sun, the spark of inspiration and creativity, as well as spiritual transformation. Holy wells are some of Her sacred places. Brigid’s festival is Imbolc – February 1 – 2 and is celebrated in Ireland to current day. Brigid made the transformation from ancient Goddess to beloved Christian saint (Saint Brigid of Kildare) and Her Sacred Flame continues to burn at Kildare.
