HEART OF THE ROSE - WINTER SOLSTICE COMMUNITY GATHERING

Saturday 20th December, 4.30pm - 11pm

Eridge Village Hall, TN3 9JF

ALL GENDERS WELCOME

In times gone by, the 20th December not only marked the beginning of this sacred festival of Yule, but was also originally called ‘Mothers Night’ - a time to honour and give thanks to the ancestral mothers, female ancestors and goddesses of the time. 

To honour this Holy divine Feminine darkest and longest night together - we will gather in community to sing, pray, dance, meditate and connect together, deepening into the dark womb of the Mother, ready to be reborn again with the coming Solar Christos Light.

This gathering will be for ALL

The evening will run as follows:

4.30 - Doors open 

5pm - Opening Ceremony 

5.30-6.30pm - Talk and Guidance from Wealden WopboRa Elder Julia Julia on this sacred time of Yule and ancient practises of these lands

6.30-8pm - Dinner and time to connect around the fire and free rose blessings throughout 

8-8.30pm - Guided Meditation into the Stillness of the Heart and this Dark Womb of the Mother led by Sophie Nevill

8.30-10.30pm - Elian and the Rose Collective + Guests - Kirtan and Songs and Praises to the Mother 

11pm - Doors Close 

The main intention for this event is simply to Be together and deeply connect to ourselves and each other on this sacred wheel of the year, on the sacred land, remembering the old ways in this new age. In service and remembrance of Her and this way of the Heart, so all can come back into balance again…

Please note - we will have a delicious outside company that will be selling dinner, cake and teas throughout the evening. Once booked, we will send all the details re. food/menu, travel and any extra helpful info the week before the event! We hope you can join the sweetness! It feels like it is going to be a very sacred, warm, loving and nourishing Holy evening.
