Lughnasadh and/or Lammas Blessings to all! Today it is the traditional date of the first Harvest festival of the Neo-Pagan calendar; although here in SA it feels slightly more like winter is coming. It’s a breezy, overcast cool 18C with sporadic rain (which I am loving). I always feel more positive and motivated when February starts even though it is still usually disgustingly hot- because it means we are not far from Autumn and it won’t be long before the cooler months begin. Also, I’m an Aries Baby so of course I will be looking forward to my season.
I’ve been pretty quiet across all socials for a little while now – and if I’m honest I can probably count it in years more so than months but December/January were definitely quieter times for me. Late December and early January was spent reconnecting with family and then I was hit with a pretty bothersome flu that I had for most of January, it wore of in the last week thankfully. I am looking forward to starting to put into motion plans and ideas I have had for some time but life/health/business/mental health tended to set me on a different course. I am hoping that this year is a more positive and engaging one than last year, I would say that 2022 ranked up there with one of the worst years I’ve experienced.
So in the spirit of trying to get myself spiritually back on track, I created my Lughnasadh altar this year and I am going to attempt (again) to try and do one for the each of the Sabbats even if I don’t necessarily celebrate each of them – or at least the four main Fire Festivals of my ancestors (I have Gaelic/Celtic roots). I have also created a tarot spread for Lughnasadh/Lammas; it has been a good long while since I have really delved into the arcane art of divination so I thought I would give it a little go, have a play and see what I could come up with. I hope you use it, enjoy it and have a blessed Lughnasadh and/or Lammas! Also a cheekly little self promoting reminder that the Mabon Practical Witchery Sabbat box and Practical Witchery Harvest Witchery box are available for sale!

And now for the Lughnasadh tarot spread - it's the first time I've ever really made up a spread and shared it but I hope that it gives you some insight to the season and you enjoy using it.
