This is one of the wooden pentacles that The Pagan Alliance will be installing Sunday, May 6 at the memorial for soldiers killed in the Iraq war that is adjacent to the Lafayette, California BART station. We will be honoring the known Pagans who have died in this war, and will be celebrating the successful completion of the litigation brought against the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. As a result of the settlement, the pentacle joins the VA's list of 39 approved emblems of belief for use on government headstones and markers.
Our ritual will be at 2 p.m. and the public is invited. Fortunately, in the wake last weekend's freeway collapse, the memorial site is readily accessible by public transportation.
