Title: Nov 15 - Einherjar Blot
Post by: DeilenMor on October 04, 2009, 06:12:12 PM: I would like to hold an Einherjar Blot to honor Odin, Freya, and all those veterans that have passed this year.

Nov 15 at 6 PM please. Nothing is schedule for that Saturday evening on the calendar.

It will be a dry rite so that all who would like to attend are able. A horn filled with Sparkling cider will be a fine offering :)

Post by: DeilenMor on November 11, 2009, 08:25:26 PM: Crystal, I checked out witchvox to see how many people have looked at the announcement.

Good News: over 500 have checked it out
Bad News: it has Nov 15 which is sunday.

Please as soon as time permits in your busy schedule, make a note on the announcement that the ritual is saturday night Nov 14 and to please check the CLG website. It would be bad to have a bunch of folks show up on sunday night looking for a ritual. ???

the CLG website has the correct information. thanks so much.

Since it is supposed to be raining today and all day tomorrow, I am thinking that the Saturday Ritual will be inside. So folks are not sloshing around in the mud potentially slipping and making a mess of the sanctuary.

to try to make it. How late can I make it to the Grove and
still be a productive participant?
