Wir fahren zum Mond! Also, genauer gesagt zur Kuffner Sternwarte, wo wir an einer Führung durch das historische Gebäude teilnehmen und vielleicht auch ein bisschen durchs Teleskop auf den Wiener Nachthimmel spähen werden - vorausgesetzt das Wetter spielt mit. **Treffpunkt um 18:30 in der Junction - dann fahren wir gemeinsam zur Warte, um 20 Uhr ist eine Führung angedacht, wenn diese fertig ist fahren wir - beziehungsweise wer möchte - noch einen kleinen Umweg retour in die Innenstadt.** **Wichtig:** Bitte nehmt Lichter mit, der Rückweg wird auf jeden Fall in der Finsternis statt finden. Hier die vorläufige Route: https://www.komoot.com/de-de/tour/2877175533 Es sind keine Stops entlang der Route geplant - natürlich werden wir die Aussicht genießen, es ist wie immer kein Rennen!

**In Wicca and other Neo-Pagan traditions the "Wheel of the Year" is central: Eight yearly festivals that echo the seasonal rites of our ancestors.** **This month's celebration is BELTANE!** **Beltane** is a festival of fire, fertility, and the wild joy of life unleashed. Celebrated as the turning point between spring and summer on the Wheel of the Year, Beltane honors the union of Goddess and God, the sacred marriage of earth and sky, and the fecund power of life at its peak. The fields are green, the flowers have opened, and the air hums with enchantment—this is the season when passion, creativity, and desire awaken fully. In Wiccan tradition, Beltane is a time to celebrate **love, union, and the fertile pulse of nature**. The Maypole, crowned with ribbons, dances with the spiraling energy of divine polarity and joyful community. Fires are lit to bless the land and the people, and to call forth protection and prosperity for the season ahead. It is a celebration of sacred sensuality and the magic of embodiment—where we honor life in all its beauty, warmth, and wild abundance. As we cross this threshold, we are invited to open ourselves to connection—between self and other, spirit and matter, intention and manifestation. Beltane is a call to fully *live*, and to do so with courage, clarity, and an open heart. 🔥🌸🌿💕 **TICKETS: You can pay cash at the door (EUR 20) or buy a ticket online HERE (EUR 15):** **[https://www.eventbrite.com/e/fellowship-of-the-western-mysteries-open-ritual-tickets-1979108345337?aff=erelexpmlt](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/fellowship-of-the-western-mysteries-open-ritual-tickets-1979108345337?aff=erelexpmlt)** **(Online tickets are non-refundable.)** **The event and the ritual will be held in English** unless otherwise noted. We sometimes do have other groups host rituals, and sometimes they work in other languages. If that is the case it will be noted here. **Doors open at 19:30**. Ritual talk-through will start at 20:00 or so and the ritual will start soon after the talk-through. Ritual length varies but the ritual itself should be over by 21:30 to 22:00. Afterwords there will be time for socializing and merrymaking, so plan to stay longer if you're feeling social and you can. If not of course you can go when you wish. :-) There is an open bar on-site. :-) **Attire:** Street clothes are fine but try to come dressed as much as possible in a single colour- black and white are best. If you have ritual attire (robes etc.) and would like to wear them, feel free. Beginners and experienced practioners alike, as well as the merely curious are welcomed. We will explain everything you need to do before the ritual- it's possible (and completely fine) to jump right in. The environment is friendly and welcoming and newcomers are welcomed! We do a full talk-through before the ritual, explain what the ritual is about and what everyone needs to know and understand, and we'll guide you through the whole thing, so there is really no problem coming if you have no idea what to expect. Run in partnership with our friends at The Hexen/Heiden Stammtisch [Feuerkreise.at](https://feuerkreise.at/forum/index.php)/ [https://www.facebook.com/groups/271329456233561](https://www.facebook.com/groups/271329456233561). **Feuerkreis Verein members receive a discounted entry- EUR 5.** This must be paid at the door and in cash.

You don't have to have social media, though. ​After we meet, we first get to know each other and then create stories, improve them, record them for social media, edit them right there, and post them. ​What do you need? * ​Motivation, and ideas for stories for social media * ​A mobile phone or camera * ​All equipment you have at home for filming: External/bluetooth microphones, prop, ... * ​Editing software like CapCut or Filmora directly on your phone. ​​The event starts at 14:00 and lasts up to 2 hours. ​We'll meet at Tiergarten at the following spot: [https://maps.app.goo.gl/dzXw9NXMLAjBqBUE9](https://maps.app.goo.gl/dzXw9NXMLAjBqBUE9)
