Autumn Equinox Ritual to Epona
28 people attended our Autumn ritual to the Celtic Goddess of Horses
and Dreams. Kerry did a fine job as Druid-in-Charge, helped by Hillary and
Nora and Alex. Hillary led a journey meditation that took us on horses,
and had us riding in and out of the invocations. We had to perform the ritual
indoors, due to rain. Still, our indoor altar was beautiful, with saddle
and saddlebags, riding helmet, roses, apples, curry combs, and horse tack.
There was a lot of amazing praise, songs and poems and stories and memories
of horses. Jen did a fine job of barding, Norma was kitchen witch. Omens,
from several dream interpretation books: Rain... when you dream of rain
it means blessings, but rain in the autumn is bad for the harvest; Ambush...when
you dream of ambush it means challenges; Playgrounds... and rain on playgrounds...when
you dream of playgrounds it means memories of childhood, or acting like
a child.
