William Blake Lodge, O.T.O., 208 S Pulaski St Suite 5B, Baltimore, MD 21223, USA

Sat. Dec. 1, 2018: Curry & Conversation Night (Invitational)
Please arrive no earlier than 6:30pm
William Blake Lodge has enjoyed hosting several Pagan and Magical groups in our Baltimore Lodge space in recent years. We are looking to build on those friendships and make new friends and bring the broader community of Greater Baltimore and DC together to share and work together. Please join us for an evening of food and fellowship as we host an informal Networking potluck dinner. December 1st is the memorial of the passing of Aleister Crowley, who founded Thelema and whose work has influenced countless NeoPagan and magical traditions. Traditionally OTO bodies celebrate this day by eating curry. Bring a curry dish, or any other dish you’d like to share, and join us and other local Pagan and Magical leaders for fun, fellowship and networking.

It's madness I tell you! Pure and utter madness! Or just a wicked good time. Perhaps the closest you'll come to attending bacchanalia, but with a modern sensibility. This ritual, wildly popular, and back by popular demand will invoke The God Who Comes. Dance, revel, drink flowing wine, and cry the names of Dionysos as you destroy the things which prevent success, happiness, and freedom within your life, and as we alchemically transform the bonds which enslave the spirit into the true symbol of freedom. If you've ever considered exploring dramatic ritual, this is a truly intense opportunity, if you've participated in rituals before, we're sure you'll find this one worth your time. Through dance, chanting, wine, and a bit of antinomian blasphemy we'll breach the bounds of ecstasis. Wine and cakes will be served after the ritual. Your contributions of other treats are welcome!
