About Isolt:  Known throughout Western Europe as the lover of Tristan, Isolt of the White Hands is a Celtic goddess who encourages devoted love and improves sexual expression within a relationship.  Close studies of her stories indicate three women who held this role, alluding to an ancient triple goddess whose role changed with time and bardic adaptations.

To Do Today:  In France, this is a time for women to come to a cave in Provence thought to be an ancient dwelling of the goddess (later attributed to Mary Magdalene).  They travel here from miles around seeking love and/or fertility, the cave acting like a creative womb in which the goddess's power grows.  If you're fortunate to live in an area with caves, take a moment to visit one today.  Sit inside and let Isolt hold you in her loving arms or fill you with an appetite for your partner.  Otherwise, create a makeshift cave out of blankets draped over a table.  Meditate inside, visualizing Isolt's white light filling your heart chakra until it all but bursts with devotion and fervor.

If you're seeking a mate, use this time to express your desires to Isolt, visualizing your ideal mate in as much detail as possible.  Then get out and start socializing, so the goddess can open the path to love.
