Lots of gatherings both online and in-person happening at Wyoming Valley CUUPS the Week!

On Monday at 7PM EST via Zoom, Join us for Magick and connection in our online Full Moon ritual!

On Tuesday 7PM - 8:30PM at UUCWV, Come enjoy the beauty and peace of the Labyrinth by the light of the Full moon! The labyrinth will be illuminated from 7:00pm-8:30pm. During the cooler months, we take our Labyrinth practice indoors. If you haven't walked a Labyrinth before, there is no ceremony or ritual. A Labyrinth Walk is safe, open Sacred Space for personal exploration. We will also have Tarot and Oracle card readings available.

On Wednesday at 7PM EST via Zoom, we are continuing our Tarot 101 series. This week, we will be going over the 8 of Swords - Courts.

On Saturday, we are very excited for our Annual Veterans Day ritual, Sumbel to Tyr and Legends Lodge. This will be an UUCWV starting at 5PM!

A Sumbel is Norse Pagan ritual consisting of rounds where each participant has a turn to toast, praise or hail a God, ancestor, spirit or self. They then pour a beverage and everyone drinks. Traditionally there are three rounds.
Tyr was the Norse god of war and bloodshed, also renowned as a bringer of order and justice. He was best known for sacrificing his arm to Fenrir so that the gods could trap the giant wolf.

Wyoming Valley CUUPs officer and members, Eric Peisel, Michael Mullins and Clark Fahringer will lead us in our Sumbel to Tyr and our 3rd annual ritual honoring Veteran's on Veteran's Day.

With the reflections from the rounds of the Sumbel, we will then welcome CUUPs officer Shannon Saylor to guide us in Legends Lodge.
The Lodge is a place to gather with friends for the sharing of stories. You're welcome to come to listen or to share! If you would like to tell a story, please plan to share a myth or tale from your tradition, a song or poem, etc. Please plan to speak for no more than 10 minutes.
