About this Event
Winter Solstice by Candlelight
Join in community for a transformative evening to mark the Winter Solstice - a ceremony dedicated to honouring the depth and beauty of the longest night of the year. This unique ceremony weaves together ancient rituals and contemporary healing practices, guiding you through a journey of self-discovery and community connection.
What to Expect:
Offerings: You are encouraged to bring a small item or symbol as an offering to Spirit/Source/The Universe/God/Goddess/Earth/Nature... whatever you like to call "it". Traditional offerings include food, coins, milk, honey, precious stones or metals, and art. These offerings, placed at our ceremonial altar, will serve as a collective tapestry of our shared journey, embodying our individual paths as they intertwine with the spirit of community. This ritual not only deepens our connection to the ceremony but also to each other, creating a profound sense of unity as we embark on this magical evening. It is also a gesture of exchange, to thank and give gratitude to the energies that will hold, heal and connect with us during the ceremony.
Honouring the Dark and the Light: The Winter Solstice represents the longest night, symbolising the triumph of darkness. However, it also marks a turning point, welcoming the return of the light. This duality is at the heart of our gathering as we embrace both the shadows and the light within us.
Deep Healing Journey: Experience profound healing through guided visualisation, sound healing, Reiki, and light language. This multifaceted approach aims to provide deep spiritual and emotional healing, aligning your body, mind, and spirit.
Sound Healing: Sound healing uses the vibrations of instruments such as crystal bowls, tuning forks, and the voice to restore harmony within the body. These frequencies help calm the nervous system, release energetic blockages, and promote a state of deep relaxation and balance. The resonance supports emotional release and cellular regeneration, creating space for renewal on all levels.
Reiki: A Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It's based on the idea that an unseen "life force energy" flows through us, essential for our well-being. Reiki treats the whole person including body, emotions, mind, and spirit, creating many beneficial effects like relaxation and feelings of peace, security, and wellbeing.
Light Language: Light language is a form of energy healing transcending verbal communication. Believed to operate at a higher vibrational level, it communicates directly with your soul's energy, promoting deep spiritual healing.

Community Connection: The ceremony is not just about individual transformation but also about connecting with a community of like-minded souls. It's an opportunity to share, listen, and form authentic connections that transcend the evening.
