    Freyrfest(?)

    I believe that tomorrow is Freyrfest, or Lammas, a day of thanksgiving for bread/the harvest.

    Anyone celebrate it? Any particular way of celebrating it? I'll be attending a wedding so I guess I'm also wondering what I might be able to do then. Perhaps just a silent prayer over some bread? They're bound to have some bread rolls at an event like this.

    Hmm, I think I will have to honor my grandfather too--he was in the french bread business back in his day; it just seems right.

    I'm going to a 50th anniversary party with a Hawaiian theme, so there will be much fun and feasting!

        I did too until someone said it was the 1st... google says 1st too.

        I will probably just be honoring it with a thought. Maybe baking some bread.

            I celebrate it as Lammas, and it's Lammas for me now (well, unless you celebrate from noon to noon.. it's 4am). I'm working, but I'll be doing a short ritual before work tomorrow. It's 3 significant days for me, because it's the blue moon, then Lammas, then my birthday! It feels like I should acknowledge this somehow.

              For me its Lughnasadh. I work dinner service tomorrow evening so I believe I shall get up early and do some baking, and have a small ritual. The fall is my favorite time of year. Also Happy Early Birthday Jem!!!!

                For some reason I was thinking of this separate from Freyfaxi, though I'm very surprised that my Daily Asatru app isn't showing it yet.

                  I have a necklace with Jera on it. Just found it, that seems kind of fitting to wear.
