Lammas is coming soon and approching rather quikly im excited and getting ready as quikly as possible!! Ahhhh
What is Lammas you may ask...
-July 31st - August 1st Lughnasadh / Lammas
At Lammas, sometimes called Lughnasadh, it's time to celebrate the first harvest of the year, and recognize that the hot summer days will soon come to an end. The plants of spring wither and drop seeds to ensure future crops. Grains are ready to be harvested and the fruits are ripe for picking. We can give thanks for the food on our tables.
Lughnasadh means the funeral games of Lugh (pronounced Loo), referring to Lugh, the sun god. However, the funeral is not his own, but the funeral games he hosts in honor of his foster-mother Tailte. For that reason, the traditional Tailtean craft fairs and Tailtean marriages (which last for a year and a day) are also celebrated at this time.
As autumn begins, the Celtic Sun God enters his old age, but is not yet dead. The God symbolically loses some of his strength as the Sun rises farther in the South each day and the nights grow longer.
The Christian religion adopted this theme and called it 'Lammas ', meaning 'loaf-mass ', a time when newly baked loaves of bread are placed on the altar. An alternative date around August 5 (Old Lammas), when the sun reaches 15 degrees Leo, is sometimes employed by Covens

wicca.com/celtic/akasha/lammas… lol as foolish as this sounds my two guinea pigs had a wedding lol. Now i know what your thinking "Seriously a wedding for two rodents? She has to be kidding!"
Well im not and theres a good reason for that. When we first got Willow we had planned to have them mate and my little sister Bryana (10-years-old) had ask if they were to have babies didnt they have to be married first? So a few months after willow was well enough we through a small cerimony for the two critters! It was actually very cute. And it made my little sister happy as well XD
