Join our Full moon ritual (monthly Wicca Circle) on the banks of river Thames, to set up altar, invoke the Triple moon Goddess and do magic at the heart of London.

Facilitated by Mani (Wiccan Highpriest) & Woodland Witches ritual team, these rituals also provide an opportunity to take on some roles and gain ritual experiences over time.

RITUAL OUTLINE ----
- We start with a brief pathworking - a guided visualisation for stillness and energy opening. This is followed by consecration where each person is blessed with consecrated water & incense. Then a magic circle is cast with a wand, and visualisation of a protective bubble / sphere around us. Elements Air, fire, water, earth are called in east, south, west, north. We raise group energy with easy chants while circling around or infront of the altar.
- Then call on ** Goddess ** energies. A team member (or a selected attendee) plays the role of the Moon Goddess. 4-5 ladies may be asked to take on Goddess-support roles, circling the Goddess and using Goddess related chants to raise energy.
- We then have a moment for some magic/ spell working. This varies each time. Feasting & social: We finish the ceremony with communal blessing of all the food & drinks people brought, share some thoughts/ feed-back, then close circle and feast.
