Conducted by Aislinn, Hall of Tribes, Caer Avalon
Celtic offerings in the tradition of the Hall of Tribes. The Celts left offerings to the Gods on a regular basis, join Aislinn and take part in doing the the same at our Celtic rit.
Women gather together for a variety of reasons. Support groups, ritual circles, discussion forums, gatherings that nurture creativity - all are ways in which women create community, banish isolation, and empower themselves. Women's circles provide safe and nurturing spaces for participants to own their feelings and experiences, to take creative risks, and to allow their deepest yearnings to take root and blossom. Join members of “The Chick Circle” as they work to make sense of our feminine psyche, so long denied...and honor it!
The Chick Circle
The Chick Circle is a Hamilton based, eclectic group of Pagan women hailing from all over Southern Ontario.
They are diverse. They are a sisterhood of equals. They walk their own path by combining ritual, meditation, and magic. They honor all aspects and manifestations of the Divine and are not exclusively Goddess-oriented. They promote spiritual growth and welfare above all.
Their aim is to provide events, support, networking and open circles for Pagan women in Hamilton and the surrounding areas.
Closing Ritual
The closing ritual will take place at approximately 5:15pm and will be conducted by priesthood from WCC Hamilton. It will be a short ritual celebrating the day and our community.
