Market Collective Moment

Even though I’m swamped as usual (papers! reports!), I did take the time to visit Market Collective today – and got there just in time to see Transit perform a couple of songs, including I’m So Indie. Don’t know what I’m talking about?

Market Collective runs tomorrow from 11-5 with many more artists on stage, not to mention all kinds of artisan’s tables and installations. If you’re in the neighbourhood, check it out!

Offering to Brigid

Blessed Imbolc!

Today marks 20 years since I was called to serve the Goddess, since I named myself Witch and took my place amongst those reclaiming, remembering and revisioning a new world into being.

In that spirit, I make the following poetry offering to Brigid on her sacred day, as part of the Seventh Annual Brigid Poetry Festival. The words are a scrap of poetry by Sappho, translated by Anne Carson. Blessed Be!

stars around the beautiful moon
hide back their luminous form
whenever all full she shines
on the earth
