Thank you Caitlin for this wondrous piece. I am interested when you say that Bridget was the knee woman of Mary? I have been writing about Saint Sara-le-Kali, both saint of the gypsies and goddess. She accompanied the three Mary’s on the boat to France. Please tell me what is a knee woman? 🙏
It is the literal translation of the Gaelic for midwife, who, if you know midwifery, spends most her time on her knees attending to a woman's lower half!
Ah yes, we all know that knitting bag where. the threads have become one large knot, eh? I had to untangle one yesterday, while looking for a ball of blue wool!
Thank you Caitlin, as we approach Imbolc I am looking forward to another year of nature unfolding and creating that space from those demands, your wisdom as always is very much appreciated.

As someone who spins, weaves and knits, Brigid as Untangler connects deeply. Thank you

So good to find you here, Caitlin.
I love the post the Bridgid the Untangler. She brings us to explore and heal in so many ways. Beautiful!
Ah, she does indeed!
Such a beautiful post! Thank you for this wonderful gift to us, Caitlin. Blessed Imbolc! xx
Beautiful writing as ever Caitlin. I love that you describe Brighid as the Untangler and I personally love her as the Spring aspect of the Cailleach.
Many thanks for these inspiring thoughts - pob bendith - and may her hearth flame brighten your days.
A perfect post about Brigid - huge thanks. The Untangler! Wonderful! All threads in her cloak - I love it!
Thank you, Xanthe. Sometimes we get stuck in the historical archetype rather than the living power of a divinity.
Just what i needed this morning,thank you Caitlin!
