I went on another Urban Nature Walk this morning, led by [livejournal.com profile] urbpan. This month, we met at Cedar Grove Cemetery in Dorchester (Boston). What's notable about this cemetery is that it's the only one in the country with a trolley running through it.

Last night, I went to the public Samhain ritual put on by the SEF. It was based on the Norse myths, and they did a fabulous job. We walked through the woods on a path lit by luminarias, and met various gods and other spirits on the journey, who asked questions and gave gifts. It was simple yet powerful. I'm very glad I went.

How was your weekend?

I have the feeling that it's going to be a long afternoon. The person who usually lays out the classifieds is out, as is the person who is the usual backup. I'm hoping that the person who is laying them out doesn't wait until the last minute, so that we have time to fix things if need be. *fingers crossed* I really don't want to be hanging out way past 5:00, waiting for them to be done.

I went and did errands on my break, then sat in the park to read for a bit. I had to stop, because my eyelids were suddenly very heavy, and I was afraid I was going to fall asleep. I had one good night's sleep this week, but the rest have not been great. I'm starting to feel run-down, and that's not good. I'm thinking that I might have to stay home tomorrow night instead of heading out to the coven Midsummer, which I'd like to go to, but I also don't want to run myself into the ground.

Perhaps I'll just do a little private ritual, maybe at the park with the spirits of the trees, instead. I find that rather appealing. Midsummer is a time of faery magick, and I think the local sprites have been woefully neglected. I try to leave them little gifts (chocolate, whisky fudge, the occasional cookie) and let them know they're not forgotten.

And, hopefully, I'll get some sleep tonight. With all the faery magick abounding, that's not assured at all.

Today begins a whole week of Beltane celebration, with the SEF ritual at the farm in Grafton. The pic is last year's maypole (and what a great job we did, weaving the ribbons!). I'm looking forward to seeing lots of friends, and dancing 'round the maypole. My church rocks. Hopefully, the weather will hold out, and we won't get rained on. Not that that would stop us. *g*
