Feb 3rd - St Blaise's Day, the patron saint of wool combers. In many English towns processions were held in honour of St Blaise and Jason of the Golden Fleece. The fete was conducted with considerable state and ceremony.

The
#Mermaid of#Galloway loved to sit on a rock by a deep pool in the mouth of Dalbeattie Burn. But a devout woman upset by the 'heathenish visitant' pushed the rock into the water. The next morning her only child was found dead in its cradle.#folklore Image: Syquia Mansionpic.twitter.com/1B2PYcH5Ii

February 1st is
#Candlemas Eve. It was at one time customary in the villages bordering on the#RiverTrent to decorate not only churches but also their homes with branches of box, and to light candles in the evening.#folklore#imbolcpic.twitter.com/UPCjuOOamO

With love to you all at
#Imbolc. Here are some pics of our celebration last year in#Pigwiggen Wood. Candles. Cake. Swan Feathers. It was extra special in 2019 because the snow revealed the source of a spring, thereafter dedicated to holy#StBrigid.#ReEnchantmentIsResistancepic.twitter.com/T9JUlM5wug

A
#Manx custom: On 31st Jan stand with a bundle of green rushes on the threshold of your home. Invite holy Saint Bridget to come and lodge for the night with these words: "Brede, Brede, tar dyn thie ayms noght." Strew the rushes on the floor as a bed for the saint.#folklorepic.twitter.com/NJ7HXgI98C

There is an ancient stone preserved at Kingston-on-Thames upon which our
#Saxon Kings were crowned. The#coronation stone is a#block of sarsen, the same stone used in the building of#Stonehenge and#Avebury.#folklorethursdaypic.twitter.com/viVcrPGu6s

The
#Scottish#CrownJewels were hidden from Oliver#Cromwell here in this magical castle thanks to one brave noblewoman. Katherine Drummond of Moneydie audaciously smuggled them through occupied territory hidden in sacks of#wool.#DunnottarCastle#Aberdeenshirepic.twitter.com/1ldgJiTsJ5

A cradle must never be made of, or mended with, elder wood. For the
#elder is associated with#witchcraft, and to do so would give witches power over the child.#treelore#folklorepic.twitter.com/2Gym3f8hnT

How to see
#fairies “We can make our minds so like still water that beings gather about us that they may see their own images. Thus they live for a moment with a clearer, perhaps even with a fiercer life because of our quiet.”#WBYeats Image:#ArthurRackhampic.twitter.com/tXHk2RKDex

“I am certain that the water, the water of the seas and of lakes and of mist and rain, has all but made the

“We gave ourselves up in old times to

“If we could love and hate with as good heart as the faeries do, we might grow to be long-lived like them. But until that day their untiring joys and sorrows must ever be one-half of their fascination.” -

A wise precaution Always put a silver sixpence in a gun when shooting a hare. For if the hare is a shape-shifting witch (as is often the case) the gun will backfire and kill you or cause some other grevious harm.

Evil spirits can enter into human beings, and so completely gain a despotic control over them as to render them perfectly helpless. This
#superstition exerts a pernicious and baneful influence on the credulous and ignorant.#folklorepic.twitter.com/q458Ecf6Yh

#Ghosts are sometimes enjoined to walk by way of penance. "I am thy father's spirit, Doom’d for a certain term to walk the night, And for the day confined to fast in fires, Till the foul crimes done in my days of nature Are burnt and purged away."#Hamlet#folklorepic.twitter.com/SRhpjpWIic

A few years ago a
#witch died in the village of#BoveyTracey,#Devonshire. She was accused of "overlooking" her neighbours' pigs. Her son, if ever betrayed into a quarrel with her, used always to say before they parted— "Mother, mother, spare my pigs." (1879)pic.twitter.com/XVcqiJcu1f
