Mabon ritual

It went beautiful. My boys learned what it was really about. Mabon is the second of three harvest holidays. We had potato soup to honor the day. Baked potatoes as part of the ritual. Ate of bread, and drank of juice. (and rootbeer). Undisturbed and even a neighbor came to join in the festivities. The kids done drawings for a bit about it during school, and writing about it. Of course reading about it.

Feast of Lights

This is an Ancient Egyptian celebration. You have a fire (In our case candles) and go put them in front of graves. Use this time to meditate on the dead, and the God and Goddess in charge of the dead. It comes on September 14th. So tonight I will be going out with family and friends, and we shall celebrate this in our own way.
If you cannot go out and do this tonight, maybe plan for next year, and light a candle and concentrait on those who have passed on, and those who guide them there.
Love and Light to everyone!
Now would also be a good time to have a question and answer session with the kiddos about death and dying!

Practice Practice Practice

We did Pagan Pride Day this past weekend. What it consisted of with my boys was practice of their parts. Quentin being the West, and Ashton casting a circle. They worked really hard. Everyone was extremely impressed at our family based coven. The funny part was that while everyone was nervous, it all seemed to just fall into place. As if a higher spirit (Goddess maybe, lol) was watching over us all. It was wonderful!
