Becoming’s Wheel of the Year aligns the lunar and solar calendars.  Dark of Winter is our celebration of the darkest moment of the year — when the Winter Solstice aligns with the dark moon.  (or as close as we can get to it!)

Join us for our Dark of Winter celebration, and embrace the darkness.  Dark of Winter for us is a cosmic time out.  It the middle of the flurry that seems to be December, we give ourselves a moment to stop.  We give ourselves a moment to align our bodies and spirits with the slowing of the season.  We embrace the dying of the light so we can truly enjoy it’s return.

Dark of Winter falls generally falls on a Saturday or Sunday nearest the Solstice and Dark Moon in December.  This event is generally open to the public, but please check the calendar for specific information.

The date, time and location for our 2011 Dark of Winter celebration can be found on the Calendar.
