This candlelit mini-retreat is part of an ongoing Wheel of the Year gathering series exploring the eight seasonal turning points.The Winter Solstice marks the longest night of the year and the quiet turning point when darkness reaches its fullest expression and the light slowly begins to return.
This candlelit mini-retreat is part of an ongoing Wheel of the Year gathering series exploring the eight seasonal turning points and the wisdom each one carries. Rather than rushing toward resolutions or trying to force new beginnings, this gathering offers space to honour the year that has been, listen inward and enter winter with greater intention.
Through seasonal teaching, herbal tea, gentle movement and light breathwork, we’ll explore the traditional meaning of the Winter Solstice and its themes of darkness, rest, renewal and returning light.
You’ll then be guided through a sound-healing meditation and winter vision quest, creating space to meet the quiet wisdom of the season. We’ll reflect on what the past year has asked of us, what deserves to be carried forward and what small spark we want to protect through the winter months.
The evening will also include guided journaling, oracle-card pulling and a simple candlelit ritual to mark the turning of the Wheel. Each participant will receive a seasonal workbook to use during the gathering and continue exploring at home.
No previous experience with ritual, sound meditation, the Wheel of the Year or earth-based spiritual practices is needed. Come curious, bring a journal and give yourself an evening to slow down before the holiday season reaches full gallop.
This gathering continues our journey around the Wheel of the Year , with future events marking the equinoxes, solstices and seasonal thresholds between them.
