In February, the nights are cold and we begin to feel a bit
of cabin fever. We're tired of being cooped up in the house, and there's a part
of us that's just longing for a bit of warmth. This is the season of Imbolc, the
days when we know that if we can just hold on for a few more weeks, we might
get lucky and see little green shoots peeking out through the snow and slush.

This is a month when new life is beginning, but still lies
dormant. Pregnant animals, due in the spring, begin to feel the quickening of
their unborn young. The earth itself is quickening, as seeds and bulbs far
beneath the soil begin their journey towards the light. We know these things
are coming -- and we know also that this is a good month to make plans for the
future. We can dream and hope, and set goals for ourselves. Accept
responsibility for mistakes you've made in the past, and move on. Magical
workings this month should focus on personal achievements and advancement.
