Lightkeepers: A Winter Solstice Circle

As the longest night of the year descends, we gather to honor the stillness, warmth, and renewal of the Winter Solstice. This sacred evening blends ancient Yule traditions with modern mindfulness — a heart-opening cacao ceremony, gentle meditation, and a hands-on craft to carry the magic home.

Together, we’ll sip ceremonial cacao, reflect on the year’s closing chapter, and create intention-infused simmer pot kits — fragrant blends of herbs, fruits, and spices to bring warmth and good energy into your home through the winter months.

This is a cozy, candlelit gathering for anyone craving grounding, connection, and ritual in community.

What to Expect

✨ Opening Circle & Cacao Ceremony – Settle into presence and sip heart-opening cacao as we honor the turning of the wheel and the return of the light.

🔥 Yule Log Ritual – Release what you’re ready to let go of withe a fire burning ritual, and gather around the symbolic Yule log, celebrating rebirth and renewal.

🌿 Guided Meditation & Reflection – A grounding, restorative meditation to invite peace, gratitude, and hope for the new year.

🍊 Create Your Own Simmer Pot Kit – Blend dried fruits, herbs, and spices to craft your personal simmer pot to take home — a sensory reminder of warmth, love, and new beginnings.

💫 Community Sharing & Closing – A heartfelt circle to share insights, laughter, and light as we step into winter together.
