I've recently joined a new Brigit Flame-Keeping group for Celtic polytheists, Nigheanan Brighde, Daughters of Brìde, and thought it might be of interest here.
groups.yahoo.com/group/nigheanan-brighde/
Its goals are as follows:
1- To create a flame keeping order for Celtic Polytheists firmly rooted in the traditional Celtic cultural worldview;
2- To tend the Sacred Living Flame of Brìde through keeping vigils over our portion of the flame in shifts;
3- To tend the Sacred Healing Well of Brìde through stewardship of the waters of the world by tending a watery location such as a section of a river or lake where each of us lives;
4- To forge deep communal bonds between Flame Keepers/Well Tenders through sharing our vigil experiences with each other, holding regular Chat sessions, and extending community-building beyond the bounds of the internet;
5- To explore the aspect of Brìde which has a special connection to women and women's wisdom (and it is women only).
The water-tending component makes it unusual and I'm looking forward to this aspect of it. Also to forging bonds with the other flame-keepers.
It would be good to have some people from the UK!
