Hail Freya, it's Friday!
Businesses don't close on Pagan holidays, unfortunately. So for today's #FridayPaganPoll I'm wondering what you usually do about work when they land during the middle of the week.
@Cat_LeFey I celebrate after work or at the nearest weekend. It seems common among British pagan groups, in my experience, to move group rituals to the nearest weekend.
Interestingly, I don't feel the same about Jewish holidays. Those have 'real' days. I've managed to always not work on Passover and Yom Kippur, and I manage the others around my work.
@noam That is interesting, yeah coordinating a whole group is difficult so the big events here are usually on the weekends too.
I see the solstices and equinoxes as 'real' days, cuz they're based on actual solar events that are happening that day, so I'm more strict with them. The others are loosely based on seasonal changes so I move them around as needed.
Of possible interest. Beckett is very much into the social aspect with others, which as a solitary I am most certainly not (even less so after COVID. People, ugh). But YMMV. Still make your rituals.
As Morgan Daimler had already discovered, there’s no record of the phrase “oak, ash, and thorn” before Rudyard Kipling. Specifically, they show up in his books Puck of Pook’s Hill and Rewards and Fairies, wielded by the clever hands of one Mr. Robin Goodfellow. “Oh,” I muttered, learning this. “Oh, you clever sneak.”
