As an island nation, Japan has always relied heavily on fishing, and fishing relies on the tides and the moon. It should come as no surprise then that one of the oldest recorded folktales from Japan is a story of the Moon Princess. Bring your arts and crafts project if you have one, or just come and listen to the story of that time the Emperor of Japan clashed with the Armies of the Moon.

4:45–6:15 pm  Online Workshop: Pacific Northwest Woo-Woo and You: Reconnecting Body, Mind, and Spirit with Place ​(with Stephanie)
Most of us do not have indigenous roots, or indigenous roots in this place. Still, we feel the call of the mountains, forests, and waters, and yearn to connect. How do we honor our personal connection to this land and its unique and glorious energies, without cultural appropriation? We will begin this complex conversation, and explore some simple actions to begin or deepen the journey of connection.

6:30 pm Community Announcements followed by...
Ritual: ​August Picnic Online! -- Ants & High Hopes ​(with Kimberly)
There are small things all around that help to sustain us, and larger things to look forward to that give us Hope. Let's take a moment and focus on the things that help. 
With this month's Summer Picnic theme, straw hats, picnic backgrounds, or any other playful fun is highly encouraged!

Welcome!  The staff of Our Lady of the Earth and Sky are so, so glad you have joined us here this weekend, for this version of the Earth and Sky Pagan Camp-In. While we had hoped the COVID19 danger would have passed by now and that we could gather in person, we are grateful for the willingness of so many presenters and ritualists to stretch themselves and create virtual rituals and online workshops, and also for the time and talents of the volunteers who helped to build our event website to try and capture some of the elements of what goes on at the ESP Camp-Out in person.

Our hope is to keep our community strong, even while we are physically apart. This time is a new experience for all of us, and this way of offering a festival is new for us as well. We would truly love to know your thoughts and feedback, your experience as participants in this year's ESP Camp-In. While we hope very much to safely return to an in-person experience next year, we will certainly be offering our monthly events online for the foreseeable future, and your input can help us make those events more meaningful. 

Please leave a comment and let us know how the ESP Camp-In is going for you.

Thank you again for being here!
