| 6:30pm | Atlantic Canada Earth Spirit Society hosts Temple of Witchcraft for Imbolc
Please join local Temple of Witchcraft initiates during Interfaith Harmony Week, as we celebrate the turning of the Wheel, for our in-person Imbolc ritual and celebration. With the growing light, the goddess stirs in her winter slumber. This is a time when we can think about what “seeds” to plant in order to bring to fruition that which we desire in the coming spring. Chairs will be provided for seating and we will not be using incense in case anyone has scent sensitivities. We kindly ask that attendees silence their cellphones during ritual and, hold off on taking pictures of the altar until after the ritual is complete. Doors open at 6:30; there will be displays from local Pagan groups. Ritual begins at 7:00. Wear comfortable and festive clothing – we will! At: The UU Church, 5500 Inglis Street Website: essns.org |
