Nov 15 - Einherjar Blot

[DeilenMor]

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 

[DeilenMor]

Duh?  It should be Nov 14 not 15.  thanks

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.   

[DeilenMor]

Thanks for the update Crystal!

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.

I have odds and ends to do on Saturday but I am going
to try to make it. How late can I make it to the Grove and
still be a productive participant?

Well, the ritual will start at 7PM.  It should at the most be 1hr 20-30 but I am thinking closer to the hour mark.
