I’m just curious about other people’s practices. It’d be fun, yeah?

Here’s mine in a strictly solitary ritual.

1. Cast the circle
2. Call in the presence of the Old Gods
3. Bless the cakes and wine
4. Pray to the Goddess and God
5. Partake of *some* of the food and drink
7. Thank the Old Gods / "stay if you wish go if you must"
6. Open the circle and take the rest outside as libation and offering to the Gods.

(I usually like to do a simply self-blessing right before doing this). I do this all skyclad with candles and no electrical lighting.)

- Why is "skyclad" a misspelled word?
edit "simply" to "simple"

Okay, I’m semi-planning my wedding. Not getting married for a couple years, yet. I’m thinking of getting married outdoors in early October (in Denmark, by the way) where it will be cool, but not too chilly. The leaves will just be starting to turn. I kind of want to do a vineyard theme. Basically I want to use autumn colors, maple leaves, english ivy, etc and decorate a garden outdoors. Have fake grape bunches hanging all over everything, and for the wedding arch get a wooden arch and decorate it with the vines and grapes and some orange calla lillies. We’ll also have a lot of candles all over and maybe wine bottles in baskets surrounded by grapes as centerpieces. Can anyone give me more ideas for this type of theme, and does it sound like a good one? I’d like to have the cake be plain white, 3 tiers, with dark orange and white flowers decorating it.

I beginning to sell some home accents such as candles and candle holders, candles that hang on the wall, garden items such as bird houses, fountains, lawn ornaments, wooden swings; desk lamp tables, wine racks, plant holders, bath and body for women, jewelry, items for men, inspirational items, and much,.much more. I am looking for something that is catchy and will draw customers to the business. Something unique that has not been already used. Any ideas?

I was watching a re-run of Frasier were they belonged to a wine club that had an old classical like atmosphere (at a loss for words here), with candles and such. I’ve never been to a wine club, when I look them up they seem to be held in boring conference rooms. Do old fashioned wine clubs like this actually exist. I live in Denver Co, can any one recommend any Interesting wine clubs to join.
