A space to connect to the turnings of the wheel of the year, to tune in the way our ancestors would have.

Women of Samhain
Friday 1st November 2024
STROUD
19:00 - 21:00

I was born on the night of Samhain, when the barrier between the worlds is whisper-thin and when magic, old magic, sings its heady and sweet song to anyone who cares to hear it.”

~ Carolyn MacCullough ~

 

In the tapestry of nature's seasons, there exists a moment when the veil between our world and the spirit realm grows thin, inviting us to partake in an ancient and profound celebration: Samhain. This spiritual festival, which falls between October 31st and November 1st, marks the crossroads of the year, a time when the old year wanes and the new year is but a flicker on the horizon. It is a moment to honour our ancestors, connect with the mystical forces of the universe, and delve deep into our own souls.

Embrace the enchanting spirit of the season and join me to gather and celebrate Samhain, a time of magic, mystery, and connection with the ancient rhythms of nature. As the leaves fall and the days grow shorter, I invite you to come together in a circle of women, to honour the thinning veil between the worlds, and to pay homage to the wisdom of our ancestors. With open hearts and open minds, let us create a sacred space where we can embrace the power of this special time of year. 


Join me for an evening of ritual, connection through creation, and revelry as we welcome the autumnal season and all the magic it holds.

What to Expect

Sacred Cacao:
We will begin our journey with sharing ceremonial Cacao together, the gentle yet powerful heart-opening medicine that has been used for centuries to deepen connection with spirit and self. As we sip this sacred brew, we will set intentions, allowing Cacao to guide us inward, softening the boundaries between our hearts and the energies around us.

Ancestral Meditation:
In a state of sacred awareness, we will honour the spirits of our ancestors through a guided meditation, inviting their presence and wisdom into our circle. We will call upon the elements, and the energies of Samhain to create a protective and nurturing space for our work.

Art as Ritual - Ancestor or Spirit Portraits:
Using intuitive art as a form of ritual, we will create Ancestor or Spirit Portraits—symbolic representations of the spirits, guides, or aspects of ourselves that seek to be acknowledged or transformed during this potent time of Samhain. With the guidance of your heart and spirit, you will be free to express your connection through drawing, collage, and words, allowing your ancestors’ messages to come forth in creative form.

Sharing and Sacred Witnessing:
In circle, we will share our creations and experiences, offering the gift of sacred witnessing to one another. This is a space to honour not only our own journey but the collective wisdom and healing that arises when we come together.

Closing with Gratitude:
We will close our time together with gratitude, giving thanks to our ancestors, the spirits of the land, and the energies of Samhain for their presence and guidance. With hearts full and intentions set, we will prepare to journey into the months ahead, holding the wisdom and connection we have cultivated.

When: Friday 1st November 19:00 - 21:00

Where: Location in Stroud (given at time of booking)

Energy Exchange: Donation of either £27/£37/£47 depending on your circumstances.


Ceremonial Cacao and all materials will be provided. Please do bring anything with you that you may wish to add to your Ancestral/Spirit Portrait creation.
 

​​I am beyond excited to open this space for us and gather traditionally as women would have for many, many years. This is the season of the Witch and it's time for us to embrace the Divine power we all hold within us.

​I look forward to meeting you, as you are.

Much love,
Lauren xxx
