Episode 80: Imbolc - Groundhogs, Goddesses, and the First Hint of Spring
Episode 80
Thursday, 12 February, 2026

As winter loosens its grip, we explore two traditions that mark the turning of the season: the ancient Celtic festival of Imbolc and the quirky North American ritual of Groundhog Day. From Brigid’s sacred flames to shadow‑seeking marmots, we trace how different cultures have tried to predict—summon, even—the first stirrings of spring. This episode blends folklore, history, and a touch of whimsy as we look at why humans have always searched for signs of returning light, and what these midwinter rituals reveal about hope, renewal, and the promise of warmer days ahead.Sources: TBA Hosted on Acast.
