Friends and Members Only

In the time of no time, we come together to honor life. We come together to say farewell to winter and welcome summer. We will purify ourselves in the bright fires of the sun and celebrate growth, fertility, and renewal.

Come prepared to leave something of yourself behind because summer will burn away winter. Come prepared to promise something new to yourself, to the community, to the gods or the world because summer is a time of beginnings.

Please bring a dish to share for potluck, and music, drums, or other musical instruments to share for celebration after ritual.

Help Becoming nurture the future: You are invited to bring a new, wrapped toy appropriate for ages 3 months – 10 years, to be donated to children in foster care in Maryland.  For more information about this donation, please contact
