Imbolc Gathering: Stirring of the Seeds

Join us for an Imbolc gathering - an invitation to celebrate the first stirrings of the land as we shift out of winter, towards spring. The sun is slowly returning, and we awaken from our inward-turning slumber to bring fresh ideas and possibilities to the new year. We meet outside, in a circle, and open ourselves to learn from the earth and trees, the waters and sky, and all living beings, human and more than human. This gathering will include contemplative practices, silent wandering, and fellowship. We are a diverse, LGBTQ+ affirming community and welcome all faiths and beliefs. Please join us! Sign up on Eventbrite to receive updates and reminders for the event. To Bring: A folding chair or blanket to sit on. Dress to be comfortable outside. Please wear enough layers for the weather and sturdy shoes. Food or Drink to share (optional). The seeds we planted last fall stir in the ground, eager to sprout in the coming months. What better way to celebrate than to share something with seeds in it! Locally produced items or something you made are ideal. Carpool to reduce our impact on the earth. Please arrive 15 minutes early - it is a 5 - 10 minute walk from the parking lot to the amphitheater. The gathering will occur regardless of weather. You are invited to join us in experiencing the natural world in all of its seasons. Please dress appropriately.
