SUMMARY:Mountain River Ecospiritual Circle at UUCGF
DESCRIPTION:You are invited to join in a Full Moon ritual inspired by earth-based spiritual traditions\, the Work the Reconnects\, and nature itself. We gather monthly to support one another’s spiritual growth and direct our collective energy toward the well being of all beings. \nThe intention of our circle is to support your individual spiritual exploration and growth while connecting Pagans and others in a local\, welcoming group. Within our sacred space you will honor the Earth\, open to Mystery\, and strengthen your connection to Nature. Our inclusive circle is open to all\, including Pagans\, Wiccans\, Witches\, Druids\, Heathens\, and those exploring or curious about any ecospiritual path. No ritual experience is necessary. \nWeather permitting\, we gather on the grass in front of the UU building\, next to the pollinator garden and the labyrinth. Otherwise\, we meet inside in the Community Room\, straight ahead when you enter the main door. Our full moon gatherings will typically follow this format: announcements\, centering\, connecting with local wild beings\, casting the circle\, calling the directions/elements\, meditation or other practice\, ritual\, releasing directions/elements\, closing the circle. Participants are welcome to stay after the circle is closed for informal social time. Our circles will be family-friendly\, but we ask that children not participating in the ritual remain in the room with quiet entertainment. \n\n\n\n\nOur September circle for the Moon of the Harvest includes work with acorns. Please bring some if you have easy access to them. You are welcome to add other nature items to our altar\, too. \nYou are welcome to walk the labyrinth before or after the circle. Feel free to arrive early to do so. \n\n\nSome of our circle members like to bring their journals to record any insights. You are also welcome to bring items from nature to add to our altar\, as well as crystals or other sacred items to charge. We typically sit on the floor or ground for circle\, however there are chairs available and several circle members use them. We have some backjacks and yoga blankets available to sit on and you may also bring your own cushion or blanket for that purpose. \nTo help plan for ritual supplies and space requirements\, RSVPs for this free event are appreciated. \nPlease RSVP on Eventbrite

SUMMARY:Virtual Litha Ceremony
DESCRIPTION:Gather on Zoom with like-hearted ecospiritual souls to celebrate the Summer Solstice. Called Litha by many modern Pagans\, the Summer Solstice is when the Sun is at its peak in the northern hemisphere and there is the longest amount of daylight. By engaging in ceremonies like this one throughout the year\, you reconnect with the Earth’s rhythms and cycles and remember the connection to nature woven into your DNA. \nDuring the Litha ceremony\, you’ll be guided in a journey with the shamanic drum\, receive a group animal spirit oracle card reading\, and participate in a ritual of connecting with the strong sun energy to elevate your vibration and empower your will to manifest your desires. We will be honoring North American solitary bees throughout\, lending some energy to the protection of our precious native pollinators. Through the virtual platform you will be able to see the ceremonial altar\, as if you were in circle around it. \nRegister below by June 20th to receive my Litha ceremony worksheet with altar creation ideas and a sneak peak at the divination spread in case you want to pull cards along with me. The small $10 charge helps to cover the costs of these and other low- and no-cost ecospiritual offerings. Plan to be present for about an hour. This ceremony will not be recorded\, so please mark your calendar. \nIf possible\, please have a drum\, rattle\, or other noisemaker\, a yellow or orange candle (a white one will work – it’s the intention that matters) in a safe holder\, and a lighter or matches. Your journal and a Tarot or oracle deck are optional\, but nice to have. If you’re missing anything\, I will have them on the ceremonial altar for the benefit of everyone participating. \n

SUMMARY:Online Beltane Ceremony
DESCRIPTION:Gather virtually with like-hearted souls to celebrate the ancient Celtic festival of Beltane\, or May Day\, celebrating the creativity and fertility of the Earth in bloom. Beltane has been reimagined for modern times by practitioners of Druidry\, Wicca and other neo-Pagan traditions. By engaging in ceremonies throughout the year\, you reconnect with the Earth’s rhythms and cycles and remember the ancestral wisdom you carry in your DNA. \nDuring the Beltane ceremony\, you will by guided in a journey with the shamanic drum\, receive a group animal spirit oracle card reading\, and participate in a ritual of gratitude for blessings with colorful ribbons in a nod to the traditional Maypole dance. Through the virtual platform you will be able to see the ceremonial altar\, as if you were in circle around it. \nPlan to be present for about an hour. This ceremony will not be recorded\, so please mark your calendar. \nIf possible\, please have some brightly colored ribbons or fabric scraps cut to about ten inches long\, a pen or marker that will write on the ribbon\, and\, if possible\, a small tree branch. If you do not have these\, please know that I will have them on the ceremonial altar for the benefit of everyone participating. If you do not have a branch\, you can tie your ribbons outside after the ceremony.
