Columbia Grove will be doing something different for Beltane this year!On May 5th, the folx of Columbia Grove will be hosting a Pagan Anglo Saxon blossom festival ritual to celebrate the beginning of summer. Growing light, life, and blossoms are all about us, and we will honor Anglo Saxon deities during this time of growth and beauty. Come celebrate and connect to the wondrous flowers of the Anglo Saxon world and as one community we shall meet each other between the worlds once the gates have been opened.
-------------------------------------
Everyone is welcome!
No experience in Druidry is required as we are far more than just a group of Druids. We are a community of pagans who are excited to celebrate all 8 major Pagan holidays! Our community is diverse and we welcome all the different spiritual branches on the big Pagan and Polytheist tree.
If you want to participate actively, we have a portion of our ritual where it is appropriate to give offerings for your Sacred Dead, Nature Spirits, and/or Deities. Feel free to bring your own personal offerings to give to them during our rite. Offerings can vary, but are typically, food, drink, and/or flowers.
We also will be drinking the "Waters of Life" during the rite. These are beverages poured out of carafes (alcoholic an non alcoholic options available) into little shot glasses for everyone. If you feel more comfortable bringing your own beverage and/or cup, please do so.
For our Saturnalia rite we will assemble at 2:45 PM and the ritual itself starts at 3:00 PM sharp. Ritual will last about an hour to an hour and a half, followed by some socialization for those who wish to stick around.
Location: West Hills Unitarian Universalist Fellowship 8470 SW Oleson Rd, Portland.
We politely request a $5 donation per person to help cover the rental space and offerings costs but this donation is not required to attend.
See you soon!
