Lammas 2013 - anyone have plans?

My first Heathen Lammas this year. Very excited as harvest festivals seem to resonate deeply with me. Will be making a loaf of bread for "sacrifice" and one to eat.

So as I'm the only Heathen I know... In fact only pagan I know, I'd love to hear how you celebrate Lammas, if you do Grin

No formal plans this year. We will probably raise a toast to John Barleycorn at some point over the coming days. I haven't seen my first harvested wheat field yet - when I do, I know Lammas is here.

Waes Hail!

Nice to know there's someone else out there Grin

I've not yet seen a harvested field yet, but I suspect it wont be long!

I'm waiting for the IL's to start the first harvest before I do anything, should be this weekend if the weather improves. Am not doing anything formal, a loaf to share and my FIL will put aside a handful of the first cut for me.

I took my eldest to a corn maze today and we talked about how today is the 1st harvest day of the old english traditions. I will be drinking the tiny bit of honey liquor i have left tonight with a piece of courgette cake. My own harvest from our garden Grin

DP and I usually celebrate together at home.

Ritual Circle, nice food, thinking of how to make positive changes.

This year a friend joined us as we had been on a workshop earlier in the year and realised our Paths have much in common. It was very interesting to feel the change in dynamics.

I really enjoyed it, though we will celebrate the Harvest Moon on Wednesday just the two us again.

I can't wait for Samhain, going to Spiral Dance in San Francisco. GrinSmile
