Winter Solstice or Yule marks the shortest day and the longest night before the return of the sun brings longer days.

It is a time to be still, quiet and introspective - to stay at home by the fire, resting and sleeping more, eating warming foods to nourish our bodies and gifting ourselves time to nourish our souls. It is a time to be with family and close friends, valuing hearth and home and close relationships. It is a time to be grateful for small and simple things.

Please join us to honour and celebrate Winter, Darkness and the return of the Light. We plan to share our usual Darkness Ceremony in the evening, starting at 7pm.

We invite you to join us prior to this for a social gathering, sharing food and loving closeness in good company.

We will also have an earlier Circle, starting at 4.30, so that we can support the young ones in our community to connect with the Wheel of the Year - with relaxed sharing, drumming, dancing and light hearted fun. You don't have to be a parent to be a part of this. Extra supportive adults' are most welcome (and needed)

You are welcome to join us for just the Evening Ceremony, just the Children's Circle, or both.

Please let us know if you plan to come.
Evening numbers are only limited by space.
Afternoon numbers are limited by available energy :-)
