I'm planning a small Lughnasadh or Lammas celebration and making a few decorations. Any ideas for a simple ritual, especially something inspired by a little wickerman figure?
What are some simple Lughnasadh ideas?

You could make a small figure from paper, straw, or scrap fabric, then add a note about something you want to set down or move beyond. Keep it as a decoration, or tear up the note afterward. It can stay symbolic without needing a fire.

For a low-key celebration, pair the craft with a seasonal meal or a few minutes of reflection. Write down one thing you’re grateful for and one thing you hope to nurture next. The figure can simply sit nearby as part of the table display.

If you do want a burning element, make the figure tiny and use only materials you know are safe to burn, in a fireproof container and somewhere fires are allowed. A candle or a written note can give the ritual that sense of release without burning the figure itself.
