About this event
Join us for a magical evening celebrating Samhain. We are now in the time of rest and regeneration, before spring and rebirth starts in the new year. It is said that during the dark days of Samhain, the veil between our material and the spirit world becomes thin, and so we use the opportunity to connect with our ancestors, turn to our inner wisdom and bask in the space of mystery.
Traditionally, bonfires were lit on hilltops and all fires in the community were put out, only to be rekindled from the big central fire.
So what better place to celebrate than around a fire? We will come together with stories, songs, poems and other sharings to nurture new visions, dreams, or ideas, and let them incubate over the darker winter months to get ready when the earth's energy becomes active again!
What to Expect:
Nature Connection: We will take the time to connect to our own nature and the world around us, using a simple nature connection practice. We will also honour the space we are in by contributing to the land of the garden.
Fire Ceremony: We will gather around a communal fire, a symbol of warmth, light, and transformation.
Story Sharing: Bring a story, poem, or experience to share. This is a time for communal reflection, connection, and celebration of our journeys.
Community Weaving: Meet like-minded individuals, build connections, and enjoy the atmosphere.
Samhain Celebration: Engage in activities that honour Samhain, from crafting, singing, and working on the garden, to simple rituals that mark this significant time of the year.
What to Bring:
Comfortable clothing suitable for an evening outside.
A blanket or cushion to sit on.
Your favorite story, poem, or experience to share.
This event is bi-lingual (Dutch/English), feel free to come as you are and speak the language you are most comfortable in!
We aim to let the fire, the songs, crafting together and sitting in circle speak its own universal language.
Because of cancellation policy of the space, we will close sign-ups a week before. Please sign up as soon as possible so we know how many people we are hosting!
