Plans: REN FEST! http://www.greatplainsrenfest.com/
pray to Fro/Freyr, and to Sibba/Sif, lighting green candles (for
fertility):
Fro/Freyr, you are the god of “Ar”, the good harvest and prosperity: you are indeed the lusty enlarger of life. When the day to day wears us down, remind us of pleasures and joys. Help us recall the wonderful excesses that brought our lives into being and which sustain the human spirit during good times and bad. Without you, there would be no life and certainly little delight. Thank you, Fro/Freyr, for the rushing life spirit and the eternal play of passions that make our lives fruitful. FRO/FREYR, HAIL!!
Sibba/Sif, let us see you in all the growing things that sustain our lives. Help us look
beyond the packaging and promotion, to the richness of the Earth from which all
bounty comes. When ordinary eyes see only corn, let us see your golden hair hid
in its silk. When others see only bread, let us see the grain, beyond that, your
smile and laughter. Feed our might and main, Holy Sibba/Sif, that we may do our
work in the world. HAIL SIBBA/SIF!!

Outcome: Yesssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss…
Ya know, the drought and heat have been pretty serious this summer, and it has continued into this Fall season. Today, however, MY GODS DID IT RAIN, but
that could not have dampened my/our spirit for Ren Fest! Audrey spent considerable time at the beer tent taking pictures of characters as they sauntered in. I was out and about renewing old friendships. We took $150 and I split some off for Audrey. No matter the weather WE had a blast, as Audrey attested to several times; however, the rain typically get gate Admission down. For her gift I bought her a Celtic knot heart necklace. For me, I obligated myself for a case of Helgi’s mead and I MAY get a sheepskin. This Ren Fair, to me, is more than your typical Ren Fair; it’s a family reunion. The Wunjo Rune this morning couldn’t have been more apropos. Tomorrow is another Ren Fair day!

PM Prayer: Forseti:
As the son of Baldr and Nanna, we call out to you in our time of need. You
are the god of justice and reconciliation. We know that justice is a double-edged ax. On the one side, if our argument is right, grant us the proper conclusion. On the other side, if our argument is fraudulent, meat-out justice accordingly. Whether in the court of legal proceedings or the court of public opinion, grant us the justice according to the rightness of our deeds. HAIL FORSETI!
