 It is a day to walk in the woods
To wander between the cold trees As leafless branches clack their songs To hear the wild Trip of ancient strings of life humming Dripping boughs, grey bark and birdsong There is bounty in that which seems bare There is clarity, space Room for hope to spring Storms shed both shadow and light Rain runs to root as life to its next beginning Like seasons never ceasing Our cyclic steps sound on ~ Ciara Mulkerrins, Of Rain and Root  Imbolg means 'in the belly', which refers to the pregnancy of ewes. Today at this time we see the first new-born lambs in the fields amongst the snowdrops and early daffodils. The lightening of candles or fires represent the return of warmth and the increasing power of father sun to warm mother earth. We can ask for good health whilst walking in a deosil (Sun-Wise) direction around the fire. May the blessing of Imbolc be upon you.

He is originally from Dublin and trained as a scientist, where he gained a bachelors degree in Biotechnology and later a Masters in Integrative health science. Although he found his career very rewarding, he felt inexplicably drawn to the energy healing practices of eastern Asia. So, in 2001, he decided to leave his life behind and studied Traditional Chinese Medicine (which includes acupuncture and herbal training). He left Dublin and studied in Beijing, China and after that came back to live in Galway in the west of Ireland to set up his practice. Archives
