Imbolc/Charming of the Plow.....

[mdehners]

What are you planning for the next holy day? I start my planning for The Charming of the Plow about mid January by making an anointing oil. Previously, I've used Rosemary but last Summer my plant succumbed to our hot and humid Summer and died so I'll be using Lavender.
The last week of January I take out all my gardening tools to clean and sharpen them. During the Rite, after Offerings to the Ancestors I Anoint the tools while asking the God/desses, Disir and Ancestors to Bless them.
Cheers,
Pat
