The festival is closely tied to \u003cstrong\u003eBrigid, a Celtic goddess\u003c\/strong\u003e of healing, poetry, and the forge, whose associations later carried into the Christian feast of \u003cstrong\u003eCandlemas.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTraditionally, Imbolc is marked with \u003cstrong\u003epurification\u003c\/strong\u003e and the lighting of candles or hearth fires, a small act of \u003cstrong\u003ecleansing\u003c\/strong\u003e to welcome the first stirrings of light back into the darker half of the year. This piece brings that quiet, hopeful mood to life through fantasy artist Anne Stokes' Imbolc dragon design, part of her wider '\u003cstrong\u003eDragons of the Sabbats\u003c\/strong\u003e' collection: a wintry dragon encircled by a ring of runic symbols on a wooden-effect card, finished with a fresh pine fragrance to echo the still, crisp air of early spring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHang it from a rear-view mirror, doorknob, or anywhere air can circulate, and let the pine scent fill the space around it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7cm diameter \u003cem\u003e(All measurements are approximate.)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScent\u003c\/strong\u003e: Pine\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUse\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hang in a car, room, or wardrobe to freshen the air.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis is not a toy — keep away from children and pets.

Her love of fantasy took root in childhood, sparked by her father reading her \u003cem\u003eThe Hobbit\u003c\/em\u003e, and grew into a full-time career from the early 2000s, including illustration work for Wizards of the Coast's Dungeons \u0026amp; Dragons line. She's since become especially recognised for her dragons, and her art is now licensed across prints, jewellery, gothic apparel, and giftware around the world — including this 'Dragons of the Sabbats' collection, which pairs her artwork with the eight Pagan festivals of the Wheel of the Year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDisclaimer\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe information provided at inspiremeonline.co.nz, including AI-assisted product descriptions, is for educational and informational purposes only.
