Today is dedicated to Cerridwen, a Celtic goddess of fertility, magic, and shapeshifting. Her name means “White Sow,�?and that animal is her special symbol. Cerridwen also keeps the cauldron of rebirth, in which souls are rejuvenated before moving on to a new life. Honor Cerridwen with a feast involving her symbols. Serve a rich pork roast or barbecued ribs, along with foods that pigs adore, such as corn, nuts, and truffles. Decorate the table or altar with images of white pigs. Include a cast-iron cauldron if you have one. Invoke Cerridwen with words such as these:

Cerridwen,
Crafty one,
Come and see
What we’ve done.
Cerridwen,
Great White Sow,
We call you�?
Be here now!
