You are welcome to join us in #Ffwrwm #Caerleon at 4:30pm on Sunday 21st September for a ceremony to celebrate the Autumn Equinox. This is a gateway of the year, marking the time when we in the Northern Hemisphere tip from the lighter summer months into the darker months of winter.
Known as Alban Elfed to us druids, we mark this time by holding a ceremony to celebrate the balance between dark and light. Just as light would have little meaning without darkness, so our achievements would mean little without the challenges of learning, and sometimes failing, along the way.
In the Northern Hemisphere, it’s also common for us to celebrate the fruits of the year’s harvest around the Autumn Equinox. In our ceremony, we consider our personal harvest and reflect on the lessons we have learned in achieving it.
Our ceremony will last around 30 minutes. All are welcome. People usually stay to chat afterwards and often bring veggie food to share. Food should be easy to eat standing up! We will be outdoors, so please dress for the weather. Any natural decorations, such as seasonal flowers, are always welcome, to make the circle look lovely.
The actual ceremony is a sacred time and space, often with children accompanying their parents. We respectfully ask that you do not video the ceremony itself, and avoid including children in your photos, unless you have their parents' permission. Thank you
