We have the legendary Arthurian expert John Matthews with us!! The Oxford Pagan Moot is a monthly informal pub meet for those with an earth-based spirituality (druidry, wicca, witchcraft... etc) or an occult based practice (Golden Dawn, OTO... etc). It is a relaxed, safe space for those that wish to meet people locally with similar interests, share your interests, or learn from others. All are welcome to attend, whether alone or with a friend. Those with 20+ years experience and those that are new to their path are equally welcome. Many have requested an informal workshop or learning space, as well as a desire to keep up to date with upcoming events. To address this but still keep with the informal, relaxed style we will set out a new format: 7.30-8.00pm - Socialise, introductions and grabbing some drinks. 8.00pm - Talk or Demonstration: Realms of the Round Table - John Matthews. The world's leading Arthurian authority joins us to discuss King Arthur, Knights, and about his new book 'Realms of the Round Table'. John has acted as an advisor for films such as King Arthur, Pirates of the Carribbean and Prince of Persia. As an independent scholar he has over 100 written works. Pirates (Athenaeum) was translated into 18 languages worldwide, and became a NYT best seller for 22 weeks. Tonight he will be talking about his new, fully illustrated book of rare and unpublished tales on King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table. 9.00pm - Open announcements for anyone who wishes to share something, mention an upcoming event, have something they'd like to give away or swap, request a discussion or event for another time, etc. We will do this round-table Style where everyone is welcome to add something if they wish, or hide! 9.30pm-onwards - A gentle invite for people to move next to people that they haven't met yet. Then informal, social chats and discussions may resume. Oxford's pub moot will be held at the marvelously atmospheric pub, The Royal Oak. The Royal Oak serves both food and drink, so we should be nicely catered to for an evening amongst friends - new and old. Food is usually served until 9pm. If you have an interest, or something you wish to share, feel free to bring it along. If this is your first moot, or you need a bit of support, feel free to reach out to Paul or Amanda on Facebook. We can help you feel a bit more confident in meeting us. We are usually here earlier if you want to meet us first. |
