Uploaded on St. Brigid's Day 2024 😊❎️
The Irish bank holiday is on 5th Feb 2024
Japanese historian Mayumi Tsuruoka explores some traditions and places related to Brigid. The
well she visited was St. Brigid's Well in Liscannor, Co.Clare, Ireland. Mayumi also visits a family and helps with making St Brigid's crosses, the symbol woven from reeds/rushes. ❎️🌾
The footage is taken from the 5th episode of the Gaia Symphony documentary, which features Enya. 🤗

A lot of what was mentioned in this 1992 documentary still rings true today. People may have abandoned many ancient practices, but this one for St. Brigid (the crosses, leaving out a cloth to be blessed) is still recognised by many Irish people. 💡 It is nice to see the respect for Brigit continue, and that she is getting noticed almost as much as St. Patrick as a patron saint of Ireland. ❎️☘️😌
St. Brigid's was a 5th-6th century lady from Kildare in Ireland, known for her generosity towards those less fortunate, devotion to her faith, and some also note her creativity. 💖🎨
This video seems to explain her story well: • St. Brigid of Ireland HD
I also slightly edited the video (colouring adjustments, and some extracts of Enya's Evening Falls music video from 1989). Hope it turned out okay ☺️⚙️
The thumbnail/closing image is from a stained glass window of St Brigid., supposedly from 1901, in Germany. 🎨
(This article also tells of the story and credits the image accordingly https: //www.smithsonianmag.com/history/meet-st-brigid-irelands-only-woman-patron-saint-180979726 ).
I hope you enjoyed getting to see or revisit this interesting clip. 🌟 Thank you for watching and if you are reading this! 😊
