Any of my GaelPols (or other pagan/polytheist/magical folks) know much about Tonja Reichley? I just picked up her book Wild Irish Roots and her Way of Brighid Oracle cards – so far I’m impressed with both. Her website doesn’t ping any negatives for me, and really I’m just wondering how I haven’t heard of her before.

These cards?

If so, I’m familiar with the cards, but honestly don’t know much about the person behind them. I didn’t realize she had a website or a book! 

I’m not sure why I haven’t heard much about her either if she’s got a website and a book and whatnot? 

Yes! Those cards exactly! I’m really looking forward to using them in my Brighidine work, they’re very different from other things I’ve seen.

The book is newer, I think she just published it last year. It looks extremely interesting. It sort of follows the format of Kindling the Celtic Spirit where it goes through the year by month and includes herbcraft, some ritual, and other bits of Irish mysticism. From her website, it looks like she is an honest to goodness herbalist, and facilitates pilgrimage to Ireland and conducts classes in Irish spirituality. I’m honestly wondering how this is the first time I’m hearing of her given that she seems to be doing so much work.

Oh sweet mercy I found a new book and deck I am DYING to get 🙌🏻

The book looks sooooo good! I’m going to dive deeper into it later on tonight, but just skimming it, Reichley looks like she really knows what she’s talking about.

This makes me so so excited to get it!! I have been soaking up any book on Brigid I can possibly get. I just love her so much ❤️

I know exactly what you mean! ❤️🔥

To me, Brighid in wintertime (from Samhain to Imbolc) is the Brighid of the hearth fire. In this dark hour, she sustains us. She nourishes us. She provides us with strength, comfort, and inspiration. She reminds us to slow down, to appreciate this seasons, but to remain mindful that spring will come again.
