Tending the Ancestral Flame of the Beloved Celtic Goddess

Cairelle Crow & Laura Louella

"Brigid's Light is a bubbling cauldron of wisdom and inspiration, and it absolutely belongs on your shelf. I'm sure I'll be coming back to this one for decades to come."
- Tess Whitehurst, author of You Are Magical and Holistic Energy Magic

"A truly special, appropriately illuminating, and richly diverse collection of writing from some of the most respected figures in contemporary witchcraft and spirituality, this sparkling anthology is a gift, both to Brigid and to the reader. Nurture your inner fire with this book, and tune in to Brigid's bright energy - not only at Imbolc, but all the year around."
- Zoë Howe, author of Witchful Thinking

This anthology celebrates Brigid, an ancient and mysterious Celtic spirit who ranks among today's most popular modern goddesses. Venerated in many forms, not least as a saint and a goddess, Brigid has traveled the globe alongside her devotees. Once a goddess with a narrow territory, she is now an internationally beloved presence. While acknowledging her origins, this book also explores Brigid from the perspective of those outside her original Celtic homeland.
Packed full of art, poetry, stories, spells, rituals, recipes, and traditions, Brigid's Light pays homage to the worldwide influence of Brigid's magic and lore, especially among the descendants of immigrants to the Americas.
In compiling these individual works, editors Cairelle Crow and Laura Louella have given voice to those traveling ancestors by showcasing a rich and beautiful heritage manifested through embodiments of devotion by their descendants, as well as others touched by Brigid.

Featuring contributions from Amy Blackthorn, H. Byron Ballard, Courtney Weber, Laura Tempest Zakroff, Annwyn Avalon, Nancy Hendrickson, Dawn Aurora Hunt, and many others.
