Artist’s Comments: The Lady of February draws inspiration from Saint Brigid, whose feast day falls in this month, and from the Celtic goddess of her namesake. The goddess patronizes healing, poetry, and smithcraft, with many leaving offerings and ribbons at wells in her honor.
It is this month that many bless wax candles for prosperity in the new year. This Lady’s low-burning crown signifies winter’s end, a carryover from Lady of December’s crown of candles which are glowing strong to endure winter’s darkness.
