Today we're discussing all things Lammas, or Lughnasadh!  This sabbat occurs on August 1st for the Northern hemisphere and it is the half way point between the Summer Solstice and the Autumn Equinox.  We'll discuss its roots, ways to celebrate, and of course all the correspondences.  So get in losers, and lets discuss Lammas/Lughnasadh!
