Yule Omens 2019

January 19, 2020 By lonnie Leave a Comment

Yule Omens 2019

Ancestors – Jera / The Harvest
This is a good time to end long projects. The Ancestors are there with you to help. Think about what you’ve been working on with family and close friends. Call on your Ancestors at your own altar or in your own way to seek their specific help at this time.

Landspirits – Jera / The Harvest
Hey! Second verse, same.ad the first. Kinda. This is also another nod towards ending long projects. This time with nature spirits. Our Grove has focused on doing more work on their behalf. Part of this is saying thanks. Another part is saying the journey on some of those are ending. Please check with Creel to find out more going on with our work with nature spirit projects.

Shining Ones – Gebo / Gift
A true blessing from the Gods and Goddesses. What form may the blessings take? Good luck and a divine touch on your heart, mind, and soul. Healing hands, guidance and wisdom. Dark cold days lay ahead. We now know the Shining Ones see us, and honor us with their blessings.

These were good omens!

Mabon Rite to the Earth Mother

September 14, 2019 By lonnie Leave a Comment

Join Prairie Sky Grove, ADF in a ritual focusing on the abundant gifts of the Earth Mother.

As part of the offerings each attendee will have the opportunity to boast of an accomplishment, share their joy, toast someone they’re particularly grateful to, or just brag about their awesomeness.

Yes, really, we want you to gloat, boast, brag, and generally share what is making you happy, or excited, or grateful lately.

Following the ritual we’ll have a potluck; please bring a dish to share.

Additionally, we’ll be collecting donations for the Amazon Conservation Team, a charity that works with indigenous people to protect the Amazon rainforest. You can find more information here: https://www.amazonteam.org/our-work/our-strategies/

Prairie Sky rites are always family friendly (kids WILL be present), open, inclusive, and we try to be accessible to all abilities. If you need accommodations please contact us in advance and we’ll do what we can.

We’re trying to find the right balance between daylight and accommodating work schedules. Gathering time is 6:00pm, and ritual will start promptly at 6:30pm. Apologies if the timing can’t work out with you; our next several rites will be indoors and back to our usual time.

Ritual Date: Friday, September 20th

Location: Crystal Lake Park North Pavilion

The easiest way to find the North Pavilion is to take Broadway north and enter the park at Stebbins Dr. Follow Stebbins around a ways until you come near the County Fairgrounds; the North Pavilion faces them. There’s plenty of parking and two port-a-potties present, as well as ample space for kids (or grown ups!) to run around. If needed, please bring a camp chair or blanket to sit on for the ritual. If it’s raining we’ll be under the pavilion for all festivities.
