There is only one week until Lammas on August 1st. Lammas is a Pagan holiday to celebrate the harvest. On Lammas it is the height of summer and the union of the sun and the earth and of God and Goddess. After the God lay with the Goddess on Beltane she became pregnant with the harvest to come. Lammas is the celebration of this first grain harvest the Goddess has given birth to. It is a time for gathering in and giving thanks for the abundance bestowed upon the earth.
