February 1st is the Wiccan festival of Imbolc, or Candlemas. Even though the days are finally growing longer, we still need courage and inspiration to see us through until spring. Imbolc is traditionally a time for initiation, but it’s also a good opportunity to tap into hidden vibrations and release blocked energy.
Imbolc Candlemas Ritual to Release Blocked Energy
If you need an Imbolc ritual, my Wheel of the Year eBook Simple Wiccan Magick Spells & Ritual Ceremony has a spell to help identify any trapped energy and release it for your benefit. The spell takes one and a half days to complete, as you will freeze a small crystal in moonwater overnight before the ceremony.

If you live in the southern hemisphere, (Australia, New Zealand, South America, etc.) you should read my posts on Lammas, the Wiccan festival of appreciation for prosperity. There is a wonderful ritual to generate more good fortune in your lives.
Blessed be and Happy Imbolc or Lammas!
