About the Caim and Brigit

A caim, from the Gaelic for a loop or circle, is an encircling prayer found in Celtic Christian and folk devotion, in which a person traces a circle around themselves while invoking divine protection as they turn. This print joins that practice to Brigit, the Celtic figure honored both as a goddess of fire, poetry, and healing and as Saint Brigid of Kildare. The surrounding symbols carry their own long-held meanings: interlaced Celtic knotwork for continuity and interconnection, the Triple Spiral or triskele for sets of three and the cycles of life, and the woven Brigit's Cross, traditionally made of rushes and hung in homes for protection.

A print like this is a way to keep that prayer and its symbols close. Some hang it on an altar or by a threshold; others simply value the Celtic art. How you read it is up to you and your own path.

How to Display the Caim of Brigit Poster

1. Choose a spot where you will see it: above an altar, by a doorway, on a wall, or propped where you keep meaningful things.
2. Frame it in a standard 8.5 by 11 inch frame to protect the paper, or pin or tack it directly if you prefer an unframed look.
3. Keep it out of direct sun and away from damp so the parchment-style paper and print stay crisp.
4. If it suits your practice, recite the printed caim when you set up the space.
