Three Cranes Grove invites you to join us for a celebration of the Heliogenna (Winter Solstice), in the Cedar Ridge Lodge at Batelle—Darby Creek Metro Park.
The Heliogenna is a Hellenic celebration of Helios, who daily drives the chariot of the Sun across the sky. From his high vantage, he is far-seeing, a keeper of oaths. This year our ritual directly follows the longest night of the year, and we will celebrate his joyful return as the sun briefly stands at its northernmost point before turning his yearly course as the light grows longer, day by day.
This rite will be held hybrid, and all are welcome to attend either in person, or on Zoom (see below).
Basic info is below; full details are available on our website:
