Interesting Article About the Origins of Groundhog Day

As you may or may not know, Groundhog Day is actually an off-shoot of the original Pagan holiday of Imbolic. One of my Facebook friends passed along this interesting article about the origins of Imbolic and how it led to later holidays both Christian (the Feast Day of St. Brigid) and secular (the aforementioned Groundhog Day). It’s worth a read, especially if you want an alternative to giving a damn about whether Punxsutawney Phil sees his shadow or not.
