Date: Friday, May 23rd
Time: 7 - 8 pm

This is the first moon after Beltane—a time when nature flourishes in much of the world. But here, the sun begins to assert its dominance, ushering in the oppressive heat of summer. The last flowers bloom as we stand on the threshold of the season’s intensity. This is a time for vigilance and preparation, a moment to brace for the full weight of the summer sun.

SPECIFICS:
- Located at Dittmar Park. We'll be on the west side of the park under the huge oak tree.
- Within ritual, we will be calling Celtic deities to aid us in our working.
- There will be a time for everyone to individually give to patron deities, passed loved ones, spirit guides, etc. (Need not be Celtic)
- Ritual ends anywhere from 7:30 - 8pm
- Kids of all ages are welcome. We only ask that you remove them from the circle if they are being disruptive. Some kids are super entertained by ritual and some are bored to tears; first-timers should definitely be aware of this. Occasional Q&A whispers between you and the child during ritual are not considered disruptive.

WHAT WE DO:
We're performing Indo-European folk magics in preparation for the month to come. We perform charms, poetry, divination, spells, chanting, and worship pacts with spirits and gods. You can come as you are and observe or bring a charm, poem, or offering to an otherworldly entity, be it god, spirit, or honored dead.

WHAT TO WEAR:
Most are in casual dress but ritual dress -- kilts, robes, cloaks, etc. are welcomed.
