Hello everyone,

Our ritual was canceled due to the weather, but is now rescheduled for this Saturday, at 3:00, in Angrignon park (METRO Angrignon). Please meet at the Metro at 2:45 and you will be lead to the ritual location.

The theme of this ritual is genderfunk, and in this spirit of unconvention, we invite everyone to come in fabulous DRAG - whatever drag is to you.

Please bring some snacks to share after the ritual.
Hope to see you all there!

The Montreal Reclaiming Bealtane Ritual Committee

----------

There will be a public Beltaine ritual in french.
Date: Sat. may 3rd at 1h00pm
Location: Maisonneuve park (small grove in the middle of the park) our usual location.
This ritual will be presented by Corbeau and Rain, They will perform the wedding of
Innana and Damuzzi. Welcome to all Montreal pagans.

Join us as we honor the dark moon with our voices, our rhythms and
our bodies.

The next New Moon Song and Drum Circle will be taking place on
Monday, May 5th, starting at 8pm. Bring drums, other rhythm-makers/
instruments (really, any instruments are very welcome!) if you have
them, but it's ok if you don't. There are generally enough drums to
go around (and we do a lot of singing too). Feel free to bring
friends, but remember that this is a Pagan circle, and all
participants should be comfortable doing spiritual work.

We are once again in the main part of the Coop sur Genereux, 4518 rue
Genereux. At the corner of Mont-Royal and Papineau, turn toward the
north (you should see the club La Tulipe straight in front of you)
and walk just a few meters until you get to an alley (this is rue
Genereux). Turn left into the alley, and go to the second white door
on the right (#4518). The door will be open; come on in and go all
the way up the stairs. No need to knock! (and if you do, you probably
won't get an answer anyw! ay). The closest metro is Mont-Royal; from
the metro it's about a 10 minute walk east to Papineau, or you can
take the bus #97; there's also bus #45 that goes north from Papineau
metro. The phone # there is 514-524-3452; call if you have any
problems finding it.

Please check out our web page at http://www.cosmic- muse.com/reclaiming/drumcircle.html , where you can find more information and keep up-to-date on upcoming circles.

Any questions, please contact us at reclaiming (at) cosmic-muse (dot) com.

Hope to see many of you there!

Venez nous joindre pour honorer la lune noire avec nos voix, nos
rythmes, et nos corps.

Le prochain cercle de chansons et de tambours pour la nouvelle lune
est le lundi 5 mai, et commence à 20h. Veuillez amener vos tambours
ainsi que n'importe quel autre instrument si vous en avez. Si vous
n'en avez pas, ce n'est pas grave; il y a généralement assez de
tambours pour tout le monde (et on chante beaucoup aussi). Vous êtes
libre d'amener des amis, mais rappelez-vous que ceci est un cercle
païen, et tous les participants doivent être à l'aise dans ce milieu.

Les cercles sont tenus à la Coop sur Genereux, 4518 rue Genereux. Au
coin de Mont-Royal et Papineau, tournez vers le Nord (vous verrez La
Tupile droit devant vous) et marchez quelques pas jusqu'à la ruelle
(celle-ci est la rue Genereux). Tournez à gauche dans la ruelle et
arrettez-vous à la deuxième porte blanche (#4518). La porte sera
ouverte; entrez et montez l'escalier jusqu'en haut. Pas besoin de
frapper! (et si vous le faîtes, personne ne repondra de toute façon).
Le métro le plus proche est Mont-Royal; du métro vous pouvez marcher
à pied (à peu près 10 minutes) vers Papineau (Est) ou vous pouvez
prendre l'autobus #97. Il y a aussi l'autobus #45 qui va vers le
Nord, du métro Papineau. Le numéro de téléphone à la Coop est
514-524-3452; vous pouvez appeler si vous avez des problèmes pour
nous trouver.
