NOTE: When you send your descriptions, often we do not have time to edit them. In fact, we will not be editing entries. We really do need short, sweet, submissions about a couple paragraphs long with full contact info including (where possible) web addresses, snail mail addresses, phone numbers, email contacts, names, dates, locations, etc... Please help us out! It's hard to edit information when we don't know what is crucial and what is not!

Covenant of the Goddess Beltane ... (Saturday, April 29th, 2006)

---

Hosted by Circle of the Phoenix

"The Sun is Wine
The Moon is Cup
Pour the Sun into the Moon"

At Imbolc, you gathered and awakened the flame in the heart of winter. It has grown since that time, reaching out and caressing our Mother Earth. And she responds, bathing the world in the waters of her living womb.

Please join us in celebrating the Waters, the imperative for all life. Lend your energy to helping us heal the waters of the world, the gifts of the Goddess that our world has taken for granted. The Earth has gifted us with her fertility; will you give your energy back to her in order to help ensure that abundant gift for future generations?

Where: Crosby Regional Park, ritual to take place in the field next to the picnic shelter. Feast to follow in the picnic shelter.
When: Gather at 2:30 PM Ritual to start at 3 PM, on Saturday April 29th, 2006
What to Bring: Food and Drink to celebrate and honor the fertile community and Earth that we are all part of. If you wish to take the Waters we create back to your home or local community, then bring a small vial or bottle for them. If you are able to donate firewood for a community hearth fire during the feasting, it would be much appreciated. Music instruments and a joyous voice are also encouraged and welcomed!
What to Wear: Wear clothes that let you feel alive and festive, as well as let you move and keep you warm.

Please look out for yourself and your possessions. CoG is not responsible for bad things that may happen to you and/or your stuff.
