🕯🔥 Samhain Community Fire 🔥🕯
Friday, 31st October 2025 | 5:00pm – 7:00pm
Planetary Healing Centre’s Community Woodland
You are warmly invited to join us for our Samhain Community Fire, a sacred gathering to mark the Celtic New Year — a time of endings, beginnings, and deep connection.
Samhain is one of the most powerful points in the Celtic Wheel of the Year. As the veil between worlds grows thin, we honour our ancestors, release what no longer serves us, and welcome the dark season with reverence and intention. It is a time to reflect, remember, and reconnect — with the land, with each other, and with the unseen.
🌿 What to expect:
Fire ceremony honouring the turning of the wheel
Space to honour ancestors and loved ones who’ve passed
Gentle reflection, sharing, and seasonal blessings
A calm and welcoming circle for all ages
🥾 What to bring: Sturdy outdoor footwear, warm layers, something to sit on, and a photo or small item for the ancestor altar (optional). Feel free to bring a flask or light snack to share.
Let us gather around the fire to honour the mystery, the turning season, and the wisdom of the dark.
