Join us for the Cliff Dark Moon as we honor the first new moon of the year, the first new moon of winter, and the initiation of the dark half of the year. At this sacred time, we recognize and honor the boundaries between light and dark, summer and winter, and this world and the otherworld.
Bring your intentions and an open heart as we gather to honor this transformative energy. All are welcome to share in this sacred space.
SPECIFICS:
- Located at Dittmar Park. We'll be on the west side of the park near the huge oak tree.
- Within ritual, we will be calling Celtic deities to aid us in our working.
- There will be a time for everyone to individually give to patron deities, passed loved ones, spirit guides, etc. (Need not be Celtic)
- There will be the occasional blessing of an expecting mother and child.
- Ritual ends anywhere from 7:30 - 8pm
- Kids of all ages are welcome. We only ask that you remove them from the circle if they are being disruptive. Some kids are super entertained by ritual and some are bored to tears; first-timers should definitely be aware of this. Occasional Q&A whispers between you and the child during ritual are not considered disruptive.
WHAT WE DO:
We're performing Indo-European folk magics in preparation for the month to come. We perform charms, poetry, divination, spells, chanting, and worship pacts with spirits and gods. You can come as you are and observe or bring a charm, poem, or offering to an otherworldly entity, be it god, spirit, or honored dead.
WHAT TO WEAR:
Most are in casual dress but ritual dress -- kilts, robes, cloaks, etc. are welcomed.
