'The Gathering' will be held in a quite wooded area in Portarlington to welcome Brigid and Imbolc. Traditionally women left their Bhrat Brides outside on a tree or a bush on Jan. 31st as it is believed Brigid passes over the land to imbue everything with healing energy. This free event includes a beautiful evening of healing with shamanic healers, ceremony of Cacao, music and lore by campfire. The Bhrat Brides will be hung together to invoke healing energy to be imbued on them.
