If Candlemas be fair and bright,
Come, Winter, have another flight;
If Candlemas brings clouds and rain,
Go Winter, and come not again.
According to German lore, if the hedgehog saw his shadow on Candlemas Day there would be a “Second Winter” or 6 more weeks of bad weather.
Leave it to us crazy Americans to see a groundhog and think, “this will do”.
Happy Groundhog Day!
I hope the little critters don’t see shadows. It’s been exceptionally cold here in Florida and this southern belle doesn’t like it.
Light & Love,
Lori
