Lughnasadh Open Ritual

Join us on Sunday August 3, 2025 at 4:00 pm for our Open Lughnasadh Ritual !

It's the first harvest!!! Welcome to the feast of grain! Let us gather for ritual to celebrate the bounty and abundance of the Earth! We will call upon Rosmerta the Celto-Roman Goddess of the Bountiful Cornucopia, and Lugh, The Many Skilled One, for whom the feast day is named. We will break bread together in honor of the feast of grain, and create corn dollies (it's easier than it sounds) to honor our own spiritual harvest along side the sacred harvest of the Earth.

It’s a high feast day! Following the ritual we will enjoy a pitch-in meal. For the sake of ease, if your name begins with the letters A-N please bring an entrée dish, if your name begins with O-S please bring a vegetable or fruit dish, if your name begins with T-Z feel free to bring a dessert or snack food. Beverages will be provided (water & soft drinks).

Gathering and social time begins at 4:00pm. Pre-Ritual Intro's begin at at 4:15 pm, ritual starts at 4:30pm. Once the ritual has begun no late comers will be permitted to enter the room until the doors are opened again at the end of the ritual.
