The next day we had a ritual to formally open the temple in Mostoles, Madrid. The main altar has the Dama de Elche and Saucco created a small altar for the Horned God. The walls are decorated with flags and banners of god and goddess images.
Upon entering the temple, we got a stone each, and the elements and deities were invoked in the Iberian tradition (which appears to be similar to the Avalonian tradition in ritual style.). Katie held the flame of Avalon and Jana held the flame of Ibea, and both were blessed together to create a bridge between Avalon and Ibera. We did meditations pouring energy into the stones which no longer serves us, and placed them in a container with water. Then we had messages from the oracles, and I was told to swim like a fish out of my cage, now that the door was open!
We sang songs, opened the circle and took pictures, then went to a big meal then as a community. I have wanted to visit this wonderful temple for a while and look forward to rituals and workshops in the future!
