Event
THURSDAY, JUNE 20: Summer Solstice Circle
Celebrate the longest day of the year and with ceremony, community, and magic at Grandmother Cherry Sanctuary!
The Summer Solstice, also known as the Pagan holiday of Litha, is a time for presence in the brilliance of light and welcoming the balance of the seasons.
A beautiful space to gather and belong together in community, surrounded by elemental medicines with seen and unseen beings at Grandmother Cherry Sanctuary.
Come early for golden hour picnicking and exploring the floral and herbal gardens, woodland fauna, and magical portals. As the longest day lingers, we will gather in circle for altar building, vocal toning and singing, and heart sharing. A guided visualization journey will bring us into the witching hour, concluding with a singing bowl sound bath accompanied by the peepers in Yonder Pond.
