As a lover of goats and things that have a whiff of Pan, I was delighted to discover that today begins Puck Fair in Killorglin, Ireland. This festival dates to 1603 and involves a goat being crowned as "King Puck" and honored by the town. The goat symbolizes the connection between people and nature, which feels like another hint that the Great God Pan has his hooves in this celebration. Today is also Lazy Day, which is meant to reconnect us with our bodies and just enjoying life—something else Pan would certainly approve of! In today's busy society, we often spend too much time worrying about productivity and not enough time simply enjoying the world around us. Use this charm to bring some joy and goaty-goodness into your life when you need to relax: O handsome Pan, hear my call! |
