Join Three Flames Kindred as we Hail the height of Summer by pushing our eldest kin (Gregor and Nicole) off a cliff… Just kidding, we actually will give honour to the Earth Mother, Nerthus, at the peak of her abundance in a cart procession where we sacrifice a part of oursELVEs to she who makes our lives, and deaths, possible.
-We will be at the Scout Ring at Historic Stagecoach Park in Buda, TX, which is a stone circle, with a fire pit in the center, and the cardinal points marked in stone as well, perfect for a Pagan ritual!
-Please bring your own camp chair, if needed (though you can sit on the stones around the circle too). BringING some extra firewood is also always greatly appreciated. Sun hats, parasols, long sleeve shirts and/or sunscreen and hand fans are also recommended to beat the heat and sun.
-For Blot please think of something in your life that is dear to you that you want to share with the Earth Mother and give to her as a sacrifice. We will have a time before ritual to write these things down on a piece of paper that will be stuffed inside an effigy of weeds during ritual that will be taken by the attendants of Nerthus to be offered to the river at a later time.
-After the ritual we will have a picnic at the circle with sandwiches and sides.
