The holiday, popularly known as Halloween, is the time of
year known to Witches as Samhain. The veil is thin between the worlds of the
living and the dead. We gather to remember and honor our ancestors, our Beloved
Dead, and all those who have crossed over. As we mourn for those we love who
have died since last Samhain, we also mourn the loss and pain suffered by the
Earth. Yet even as we grieve, we remember and honor the sacred cycles of life,
death, rebirth and regeneration, celebrating the births of our children born
this year and our own vital connections to the Earth and each other, in which
we in which we ground our hope.
When we dance the Spiral as a community, we remember and
honor our own past at the same time that we renew our vision and embrace the
future. As with all Reclaiming events, we strive for inclusiveness and
diversity. Reclaiming rituals are clean and sober as an act of solidarity for
those who are in recovery. Reclaiming rituals are open to folks of all ages,
all genders, people of diverse physical abilities, peoples of color, LGBTQ+
folk, Witches, Pagans, those of any faith, atheists, activists, seekers and the
curious.
Due to the participatory nature of this event, the
audience will be encouraged to stand and navigate the room for the duration of
the performance.
Cost: $25
