We prepare to gather together for the SEVENTH annual Boulder, CO celebration of Ostara on Friday March 21st at Pagan Ritual (dance) Party #24! With an opening Norse Asatru Ritual Circle followed by 5 hours of music featuring , Balance, Teaflow, Rune/Herb Magick from Brigitte Mars, sound healing from Soulstice, and Rune Reading from Freya Aswynn, at night’s end.
On private property just outside Boulder, CO, expect to enjoy a night with Indoor dance space, Three Outdoor Fires, Fire Spinning, organic eats, chocolate bar, elixirs, and community revelry abounding at the Pagan Party. Costumes are welcomed, and perhaps, many often feel free to embody their true nature as Elves, Sorceresses, Fairies, Wizards, Vikings, Gods and Goddesses
Idunna, the Norse Goddess of Renewal and the Spring is of special significance during this time, as are the Light Elves (Ljosalfar). She is the keeper of the Golden Apples that renew the life of the Aesir and Vanir. Idunna is ancient and powerful, perhaps older than the Aesir and Vanir both — daughter of the Star Hero Ivaldi, who’s sons are also famous for forging many of the mighty weapons of the Gods including Mjolnir, Gungnir, Frey’s boar Gulldinbristi, his ship Skíðblaðnir, Sif’s golden hair, and Odin’s barclet Draupnir.
Idunna is said to emerge from the branches of Yggdrasil and assist with the regrowth and renewal of the realms and the Tree after the Ragnarok. She is known for healing and renewal, a gentle nature, with great power underneath her demure demeanor. She is representative of the Divine Feminine Power, specifically the renewing and rejuvenating Feminine aspects of Love.
The Pagan Parties began on Spring Equinox, 2019, and we are so happy to celebrate this anniversary together with Drumspyder! (https://drumspyder.com/music) “Drumspyder weaves a web of percussive rhythm, melody, and line. Framedrums, tambourines, and low whistles mingle with bass beats and ethereal atmospheres, bringing the Celtic and British Islands traditional music into vital contemporary expression. A Drumspyder live set is a dance journey through the realms of Celtic electronica, fantasy soundscape, and pagan forest revelry, guided and energized throughout by virtuoso live percussion. An ecstatic dance experience ranging from meditative ambience to high-energy tribal dance and back.”
Hail to the coming of Spring! Hail the Ljosalfar! Hail Idunna!

Ubbe MacLean (event creator/organizer) (https://anchorthelight.org/#about) is a practitioner of Asatru, clinically trained psychotherapist, educator, life enhancement coach, reiki master and author of the guidebook -- Healing From the Tree: Using Runes & Herbs for Emotional, Physical & Soul Healing (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CVQWJVR7) with renowned authors Freya Aswynn & Brigitte Mars.

One of his goals is reinvigorating the spiritual and shamanistic traditions of the Northern Ancestors in their descendants in the West, and create an understanding that we all have the ability to anchor the Divine Light of the higher realms, both individually and as a community in ritual and conscious celebration.

Ubbe, who studied the Runes under Freya Aswynn for 3 years, is the great grandson of Ubbe Ragnarson (see his family's book “1000 Years of Hubbard History, https://archive.org/details/onethousandyears00daye, where his more recent grandfather, George Hubbard, one of the founders of Hartford, CT, his son George, and grandson George are written about) and his family proudly flies the "Black Raven Banner” of Ragnar Lothbrok at various homes across three states in the US.
