Beltane Imbolc Ritual Saturday, April 28th, 2018 "Weaving love, we remember the wisdom of our bodies" Join Northbay Reclaiming Community as we gather to celebrate Beltane(May Day). Beltane is the halfway point between spring equinox and summer solstice. It is a time of revelry, enjoying the warming season. Together we'll weave a maypole and reflect on how there are many forms of love(friendly, filial, compassionate, romantic, self-lvoe, etc) we can bring forth and celebrate. This is a ritual for all ages. Saturday, April 28th at Subud Hall Doors open at 3:30pm Ritual begins at 4pm Cost: sliding scale of $10 to $30 No one turned away for lack of funds All our rituals are clean and sober spaces. |

By Request, here is the song we were singing at Equinox:
“The Lord and the Lady cast a song across the plain the birds took the notes and sang them back again till the sound of Her music was the song of the sky and to that song, there is one reply: Chorus: Dance Dance wherever you may be I am the Queen of the dance said She I’ll lead you all wherever you may be And I’ll lead you all in the dance said She “The sun’s in the southlands and the days lengthen fast And soon we will sing of the winter that is past Now light the candles and rejoice as they burn We dance the dance of the sun's return Chorus: Dance Dance wherever you may be I am the Queen of the dance said She I’ll lead you all wherever you may be And I’ll lead you all in the dance said She The snow is slowly melting and the clouds bring the rain the Lady wakes for the Spring has come again. we dance in the meadows and we dance in the groves And rejoice in the Lord’s and the Lady’s love.” Chorus: Dance Dance wherever you may be I am the Queen of the dance said She I’ll lead you all wherever you may be And I’ll lead you all in the dance said She I sleep in the kernel and I laugh at the rain I dance in the wind and through the waving grain when you cut me down I care nothing for the pain In the spring I’m the Lord of the dance again Chorus: Dance Dance wherever you may be I am the Queen of the dance said She I’ll lead you all wherever you may be And I’ll lead you all in the dance said She I dance at the Sabbat when you dance at the spell I dance and sing that everyone be well When the dancing’s over do not think that I’m gone, To Live is to Dance, so I dance on and on. Chorus: Dance Dance wherever you may be I am the Queen of the dance said She I’ll lead you all wherever you may be And I’ll lead you all in the dance said She" verses used in the Spring Equinox Ritual.
