The symbolic imagery: The three personae of Brigid stand behind a well in which their reflected faces are merging. An infant reaches out for flying luna moths; a hedgehog strolls among spring flowers. A knotted border entwines the cycles of the moon, the sun, an egg, cattle, geese, capricorn, acorns, bells, and various other symbols.
Scrolls may also be ordered separately. To learn even more about Brigid (saint & goddess), visit our Brigid pages.
