It happens the last Saturday of April (sometimes May 1st) and is a great place and time to get ready for spring with your friends and family... or even just for yourself.
 
This year, while we look for better accommodations, we will host a tiny pop-up in an accessible location. As we will be smaller, there will be a max of 6-8 vendors and 1 speaker or entertainer. There will be no ritual for 2024.
 
We love cosplay! Dress up for this fair and have fun with us!

Ostara Public Ritual

Date: Tuesday, March 19th

Time: 6-10pm

Location: Centre Communautaire Marcel Giroux (4501 Bannantyne, Verdun)

What does the springtime, the Norse Goddess Idunn, and delicious apples have in common? Welcome everyone to our Ostara ritual!
 
As the equinox approaches, we gather to celebrate the coming of spring, the fertile ground for new projects and ambitions, and the hope for a productive and joyful time ahead!
 
The ritual will consist of a presentative dance between two pagans, a reading from one of our hosts, and the handing out of apples to participants in celebration of Idunn. Afterwards, we will eat the food brought for the potluck, and mingle until we have to leave the venue.
 
The event is open to anyone, but we ask that you bring $5 (or more if you wish) to contribute to the cost for renting the space, as well as any food you'd like to share for our potluck.
 
 
If you have any questions, feel free to leave a post on the event page, and we will respond to you in short order!
 
Blessed be, and we hope to see you!

February Full Moon

Saturday, February 24th at 3pm

At Thesaurus Therrarium (383 Rue de l'Église, Verdun, QC H4G 2M5)

There will be a small workshop on making blessing water for the Full Moon. February is the Snow Moon. It is also the Celtic Willow Moon. The focus is on spiritual healing and caring for hearth, home, and family during a time of the most snow of the winter season.

You must RSVP for this as there are only 7 places available.

Prepay this event $5 to cover the cost of supplies and secure your place. Contact the school via facebook to arrange your RSVP.

Please note that because we are holding this in the teahouse, you need to make a purchase of tea and some kind of treat as well when you are there.
