We will be celebrating Spring Equinox at Trout Lake Abbey on Saturday, March 23, 2024, at 6 pm. This will be a Hellenic (ancient Greek) pantheon rite. Esto!

This is the rite when the days and nights are of equal length, and with the return of Persephone, Spring returns to the land.

We will be honoring the ancient Greek deities Demeter and Persephone. Appropriate offerings for Demeter include tubers, whiskey, grain, food, oil or butter. Offerings for Persephone include flowers, whiskey, butter, food, songs or poetry. As usual, praise offerings are always welcome.

We will hold this rite indoors in the Sanctuary. The room is heated but do dress warmly for the procession. Do check the weather beforehand since it can be very changeable this time of year.

There will be a potluck following the ritual, held in the Fireside Room in the main house.
