Time..... for Lughnasadh
Wow, sometimes it's just amazing how quickly time goes by! I was puttering around the house, getting ready for tonight, and I realized it's been a minute since I said anything here, so.....here I am! I'm sure summer is busy for everyone, and I'm no exception. Part of my summer is spent at a renaissance faire, being a Traveler and entertainer. We get to spend our weekends in the 1400s, antagonizing the townsfolks, avoiding the Queen, and dancing for patrons. It's great fun, and it's also quite warm! Because of the timing of that particular ren faire, my coven generally does Summer Solstice each on our own. We do try to come together for sabbats and esbats, but life happens, and we don't always manage to do it. But as we come towards the end of summer, we almost always get together for Lughnasadh, and as the director of a public Pagan entity, I also organize an open ceremony (we don't do formal ritual for open events). And tonight is our ceremony!...
