Rites, magic, legends and wishes with the Lantern Festival on Lake Averno!
Sul Lake of Averno returns the Lantern Festival on June 27th and 28th and July 4th 2020, an event full of magic, unique suggestions and experiences.
The full name is Festival of Wish Lanterns, Myths and Rites of the Summer Solstice and will take us on a walk on the shores of the lake to discover the rites of the peasants during the magical nights of the past.
Of course, the lanterns used will be the decorative ones and not the flying ones, therefore non-polluting and the event will be limited in number, in compliance with anti-Covid regulations. Reservation is mandatory.
The myths and legends of Lake Averno
During the walk, we will discover the stories and tales about witches and janare, we will talk about the fairy dances around the lakes and learn the legend of the Fata Morgana which is said to have appeared numerous times right on this lake.
Furthermore, according to the myth, the Moon Goddess fulfills the desires of men on nights of passage, such as that of the Solstice, and for this reason the participants will receive a piece of paper on which to write their wishes. Then, they will hang it from a lantern in the trees and, while waiting for the wish to be granted, yes will melt the lead. According to legend, in fact, based on the shape taken by the loose lead, you will understand the answer to your own question about the future.
