Grand Sabbat 2015

our encampment altar

Grand Sabbat!

My spiritual bucket is not only full, but my PSG trauma is healed. I know it seems silly but there was so much build-up in preparing for PSG and to hang out with good friends there that when we were evacuated it just seemed a huge wound left on our hearts.

Grand Sabbat was amazing though. Weather was perfect, the site was amazingly beautiful, and everything seemed magical.

This event is hosted by Steven Posch and by invitation only (the site being small and limited in how many campers it can accomodate). It is not a festival, but a long weekend event that focuses on one ritual, the Grand Sabbat. The ritual harks back to traditional witchcraft lore and the ecstatic celebration of the Horned God.


Call: Blessings be with our ancestors!
Response: May it be so!

C: Mother of Witches, lady of the moon!
R: I adorn my King!

C: Lord of the Forests, King of the people!
R: Lord of Life and Death!

C: Life to the Horned God!
R: Life to us too!

C: Worthy of worship!
R: Worthy of praise!

C: He is rising!
R: He is coming!

C: Shin-ing!
R: Ri-sing!  

Lyrics for the Women's procession of the God, by myself and Alana.
