Imbolc Ritual

Island Willow Protogrove, ADF will be holding it's Imbolc Rite on February 2nd, 2008. The pre-ritual briefing begins at 7:30pm and the ritual itself will begin at 8:00pm sharp.

Imbolc will be done in the Celtic tradition and the main working of our rite will be devoted to the Goddess Brigid. We ask that everyone prepare an offering of poetry for her [and yes, we expect you to recite it... but you get judged on effort not ability]. The offering of poetry should be something that has meaning for her, you can write it yourself or choose something already written.

As for food, please eat supper before hand, although as part of the ritual some snacks will be provided.

We will also ask a small anonymous donation from those attending the Rite as a contribution to offset the costs of running the ritual, it can be anything from two cents to a million dollars... although most people just donate pocket change... whatever you feel comfortable with is fine with us.

The Rite will be hosted at Raven's place in the West Island. Please email us at islandwillow@gmail.com to RSVP and/or to get directions.
