Imbolc, pronounced "IM-bolk," is a pagan holiday that is typically celebrated on February 1st or 2nd, marking the midpoint between the winter solstice (Yule) and the spring equinox (Ostara) in the Northern Hemisphere. Imbolc is one of the four Celtic cross-quarter days, along with Beltane, Lughnasadh, and Samhain. These cross-quarter days fall between the solstices and equinoxes and were important markers in the Celtic calendar.
