Yule, the Winter Solstice, falls on the shortest day and longest night of the year. Pagans welcome the rebirth of the Sun with dancing, music and festivities. Decorations include wreaths, boughs of holly, mistletoe, evergreens, and lots of lights.

Arrive between 3:45-4:00PM
Ritual will start at 4:10PM

We will gather for the Potluck after the ritual. Please either keep ingredient list or label all offerings with the included ingredients to allow those with dietary restrictions to make healthy choices for themselves.

This year we are doing a witchy gift exchange! Whether it is a book, tarot deck, set of runes, oil blend, or another magickal tool that just needs a new home. We are aiming to keep gifts $25 or less. We will have an altar and yule tree for gifts to go under.

As part of the ritual we are also doing a community vision board for our goals and manifestation! Please bring images of what you want manifest in the New year!
We are also offering a fire releasing as part of the ritual. Think about what is holding you back?

What no longer serves you in the coming year?

Our rituals like to include drumming, so feel free to bring a percussion instrument if you have one as well.
