Profits from this event go to support the New Alexandrian Library Project.
UPDATE: BTW 2007 raised $19,199.48 for the New Alexandrian Library Project

Between The Worlds is an interfaith esoteric conference sponsored by the Assembly of the Sacred Wheel, a Wiccan non-profit religious organization. This conference is an opportunity to experience deep learning and moving rituals from a wide range of esoteric Paths. Attendance at this event is normally in the range of 250-300 people. Between The Worlds is not an annual event. The last Between The Worlds was held in November of 2004 during the Grand Quintile. Between The Worlds is only held when there are astrological aspects that can uphold the work of the event.

Friday Night Main Ritual:

Our main rituals at Between The World are known for their beauty and power. Registrants will be asked to attend a ritual preparation class before the ritual. Please bring a robe or ritual garb. This is another good reason to arrive on Thursday.

Saturday Night Gala:

In addition to the conference, there will be a Gala filled with dancing, merriment, and an auction to benefit The New Alexandrian Library Project (www.sacredwheel.org/nal.html) . The dance music will range from the 1980s to today and will probably include some of your favorites. Come prepared to dance.

If you'd like to donate something for the auction (value of $100 and up) please contact us at sacredwheel@sacredwheel.org .
