Come join us as we celebrate the turning of the wheel with our Samhain Gathering this Oct.
We are located behind 520 Red Rock Road, Red Rock, Tx . Our new address will be 100 Flag Hill Rd. It will take a bit before google maps gets it listed. So turn in at the Gargoyle and go up the dirt road (Flag Hill). Turn at the cement post with the symbols and take an immediate left and follow the signs. Hopefully by next Beltane, we will have our own entrance.
Our main ritual will be based on the Sumerian Myth involving the Decent of the Goddess Inanna to the Underworld. Be prepared to state something your are giving up to enter the 1st gate into the ritual. Also bring something to give the fire for those in your life that have passed through the veil.
We are also working on bringing back the Sacred Play to teach our Myths and Paths. To restart this we will be doing the Myth of ESPOT for this Samhain.
Early tickets are available online for $60 per Adult, children 17 and under are free.
If you wait to pay at the Gate $70
Sat day pass is $40
If you are military, veteran or first Responder, tickets are $40
