Ritual Events at Mountain Temple Center (1533 E. Lupine Ave., Phoenix):

Jan 30 (Saturday) Candlemas / Imbolc at Mountain Temple. Feast to celebrate the return of light, focusing on the Triple Celtic Goddess of Rebirth. Imbolc, or the Festival of Brigid, celebrates the growing strength of the God still in his child form, as well as the return of the Maiden aspect of the Goddess. As their strength and light grow, we grow with them. It is a holiday of light and inspiration, a time when our path becomes more fixed and the seeds that will grow later begin to stir within us. Gathering to begin around 7pm, ritual at 9pm.
