Pancake Day

Here In Newfoundland tomorrow, February 17, will be Pancake Day,
traditionally a time to use up the supply of eggs, butter, and milk
before Lent. Also there is a tradition of putting items in the batter
which when discovered were supposed to tell you something about
your future (e.g. who you might marry, with a nail meaning a
carpenter). Hopefully people ate their pancakes carefully and
didn’t swallow any nails, buttons, coins, etc. :-)

From another post by me:

February 17 will be Raven new moon (as in the Haida
creation legend of Raven and the First Men), Lunar New Year
(also known as Chinese New Year), a significant birthday in
my family, Mardi Gras/Shrove Tuesday/Pancake Day (and
the eve of Ash Wednesday), and an Annular Solar Eclipse,
or Ring of Fire, though it won’t be visible up north. It is
also the new/dark moon which falls just before the start
of Ramadan (which depends on the sighting of the earliest
waxing crescent). So I hope that my global new age onset
mystic activation sequence will work then, though I am trying
a little advance workings tonight, 12 hours before the
exact time of new/dark moon.
