The last of the bonefire sabbats, as the harvest is finished and the earthen surface falls into sleep for the coming colder days ahead.\u00a0 It is at this time when the Gods and our beloved dead are at their closest, while the veils are thin.\u00a0 It is a time to seek protection, messages, and auguries.<\/p>\n<p>We traditionally gather between the calendar Samhain, on October 31 and the astrological one, on November 7th. The focus of the ritual is to honor the Ancestors and the Gods of old, while sitting with them in sacred space. Harnessing the energy of the night, we will work some spellcrafting as well to keep with us throughout the year.<\/p>\n<p>Please bring ritual robes (if you have one) and food to share during the post ritual potluck.
