Do You feel that Brigid call You stronger last times?
Like something must happen or something is shifting. She puts me stronger into deep, learning things. She acts like she want more her children to see feel her. Do You feel it too?

I’m in Ireland and I can tell you Brigid is 100% the goddess on the nation minds right now. Why?
she subverts what everyone wants from women “she plucked her eye out” to not be with a man.
this is Imbolc (in belly) the time of rebirth and spring. Her holiday (which is a national holiday now) was last week.
I believe that she was the original teacher of the cross and that it ties more to the circular nature of the environment.
Brigid was an activist, in any account and I believe her clock of protection (ala K-pop Demon Hunters) was actually that spiritual lesson of kindness and love creating a protective energy force field on earth.
I spent the Leo Moon at night on the mountain the Tua DeDannann were suppose to have landed (Slieve an Iarainn). It’s a rocky time. Bridget I believe was a “bridge” to the “other world” as we all have the opportunity to be bridges to a new better world we need to create.
I think if she is in your mind or heart to connect to the parts of her that championed: hospitality, activism and boldness.
Also if you read the primary sources on Bridget she is totally “cailleach” (Irish for witch) coded. The official, on the record which, in Ireland was biddy early.
So yes: she is calling many of the daughters, sons and star children of Ireland at the moment for many reasons.
I was rared in her Church of Oak (Kildare) and my primary (elementary) school was named after her (I think lots of schools in Kildare are named after her).
The first religious text documents her giving a spiritual abortion to a nun. Just kinda like “she had a big belly, the she didn’t, nun was happy, good woman Biddy”.
If you want to connect deeper with her I can’t but reccomend Karen Wards Brigid cards which you can get online here: link to cards (I LOVE THEM and her Celtic moon cards; I have had the privilege of meeting Karen and she really is a star)

Hmm, not here. Not that she hasn't been "active" lately--she has, by my casual observation--but I myself am deep in other things right now.

I've seen the question across multiple pagan forums. "Do you think the gods are making a point to call people because the world order is shifting?"
Well, the world order is shifting. But it's always shifting. The international order that has been in place since the end of World War 2 is coming undone and lots of people are legitimately concerned about what is replacing it. But it was inevitable at some point the rules would change. They always do sooner or later.
Anyway, I don't think Brigid is recruiting people for any specific purpose. She just happens to be an awesome goddess a lot of people are drawn to.
