I didn't get to post about this earlier, but given the bad weather of yesterday and having to reschedule it, I got a second chance! Enki Coven will be hosting a kite festival on the grounds of MageNet in honor of Uttarayan on the 21st that is open to all. There will be a fair, bonfire, a feast, and, of course, kite fighting (as well as kite flying for those of you that don't want to cut up your fingers). There will be the opportunity to bathe in the Yamuna river (it will be COLD) for those that want to go full in on tradition.

Also with Lunar New Year coming up, Enki Coven will be hosting an open event on the grounds of MageNet on the 1st of February. There will be traditional foods offered from various traditions (dumplings, Buddha's Delight, mandarin oranges to name a few!) and we will be lighting a moon house on fire. You will have the opportunity to add wishes to it before the lighting ceremony!

Prayer sessions will be held earlier in the day during both events, that people are welcome to join or witness.

	Maybe! She might try to eat the kites though so probably not to that part. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It would bring a whole new aspect to the kite fighting. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	We would absolutely win. Whether anyone would call it anything but cheating is a whole other thing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	We would make her the prettiest flower crown regardless. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Can we make her one just because? Though that'd probably take a lot of flowers. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I bet if we get enough of the kids together during one of the festivals, they'll make it happen. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well that sounds adorable. I'm in. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Never met a kid that doesn't love to make flower crowns. Bring your harem, yeah? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Sorry, I meant your friends. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	~~Am I doing friendship wrong or something - does everyone have the wrong idea -~~ How cold is cold and how long is bathing? Is it like a quick dip and you can say you partook or do you have to stay in there for ten minutes? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Honestly, it's up to the individual. If you can stand it, stay longer. If you can't, in and out is the way to go. It's a purification ritual, but it's more symbolic than magic. (Reply to this) (Parent)
