Join us on Samhain, the day of the ancestors, when the veils are thin and other worlds beckon. Together with our community of witches, we will celebrate our beloved dead, our ancestors of blood, ancestors of activism, and ancestors of craft, we will send our blessings into the future, and we will dance into the Witches’ New Year hand in hand.
This is the final ritual for this iteration of Reclaiming LA, so we will be weaving spells of protection and hope as we say goodbye to the community that has been, and carry forward threads for the communities of the future.
Ritual intention:
"The spell is done. The spell has begun."

The ritual space will have dim lighting. Chairs are available for those needing to sit for part or all of the ritual, and the ritual is structured to allow for participation also while seated.
