 We step into the season of first harvests, growing connection, and collective visioning. Whether you’re deepening your spiritual practice, exploring new skills, or just showing up to share space—we’re grateful you’re here.
Last month, we gathered in joy and visibility at our Summer Solstice LGBTQIA+ Pride event. The turnout was incredible, and we’re still feeling the love. Thank you to everyone who came, supported, drummed, and danced. These moments of shared celebration are what community is made of. We’re also thrilled to share that our WVCUUPS Bylaws were officially approved. This is a major milestone in the continued growth and grounding of our chapter. On Sunday, July 6th, we’ll gather for Lúnasa Ritual Planning. This session will help us decide whether we’re offering this ritual at Pagan Pride Day or holding it separately on August 2nd as part of our regular potluck gathering. We’d love to hear your thoughts—join us online or in-person and help shape what this celebration will look like. We’re also delighted to welcome back Alythia of the Ash, an incredible teacher who many of you will remember from our past Witchcraft 101 series. This July, she’s offering a new 3-part class: Beyond Tarot Basics, starting Monday, July 7th. Alythia brings depth, clarity, and grounded wisdom to her teaching—we’re honored to have her return. Looking ahead, NEPA Pagan Pride Day is coming up on Saturday, August 9th at Kirby Park. Planning is in full swing, and we need your voice. Whether you’ve been with us for years or just joined, there’s a place for you. We’re especially seeking volunteers for setup, hospitality, and ritual support. Volunteer and help make NEPA PPD a success! You’ll also notice several collaborative planning sessions on the calendar this month—ritual building for Lúnasa, Dark Moon, and Pagan Pride. These meetings are open to all, whether you're a member or not. If you’ve been curious about how we create ritual together, this is a great time to listen in, contribute ideas, or just see how the magick happens. Also this month:
As always, our Discord server is open 24/7. It's where most of our organizing and conversation happens—hop in any time. This summer is a time of weaving: of ideas, hands, voices, and futures. We’re glad to be weaving with you. In community, The WVCUUPS Team
