Fertility rite at Rocha dos Namorados
Fertility rite at Rocha dos Namorados at night. The woman at left is performing a custom associated with a centuries-old pagan fertility rite. She is throwing a stone backwards over her shoulder. If the stone lands on top of the mushroom-shaped natural granite outcrop, then she will be married within the next year. If the stone fails to land on the outcrop, she will have to wait until the following year to try again. This object, also known as Lovers' Rock, has carvings and evidence of worship on it dating from prehistoric times. It is located in the Corval region of Portugal. The Moon is in the night sky above the woman. Photographed in 2015.
