Join us as we erect the Temple of Antinous and celebrate the Lion Hunt, an historical event that preceded the death and apotheosis of our Beautiful Boy in Ancient Egypt. We shall be looking inward to our failures, those times when we fell short of our expectations for who we want to be in the world, as well as outward to the challenges IN the world, those powerful people and forces that are obstructing and hindering our growth and ability to lead free, joyful, and liberated lives. We will inscribe all of these on a clay tablet and, with the blessing of Antinous the Lion Slayer, perform an execration rite in the old Egyptian manner, smashing them to bits and burying the remaining shards in the Earth, where they may feed and nourish new growth, blossom as the Red Lotus flower that sprang from the Lion's Blood.
Ave Ave Antinoe!
Ave Vive Antinoe!
Haec est unde vita venit!
This is where, this is where
This is where life comes from!
Priest - Jay

This is a learning / experimenting Circle, so great for first timers, and those seeking / questioning. This is a place to do Ritual with us, get to know us in a small-group casual setting, and ask tons of questions if you want to. You might even receive answers that make sense!
