What an appropriate card for today, the season of Imbolc. On the Celtic Tree calendar, the Willow is the fourth month, February. And, this is the time of Imbolc or Brigantia, Brigit's fire festival. This month is also sacred to the moon goddess. This tree also offers protection against damp diseases and modern chemists extract salicin from her bark to be used in the treatment of rheumatic fever.
Drawing this card today is telling us that we need to honor the feminine today. Take heed to our feminine side, listen to the lunar cycles, and prepare for the start of spring.
