The Stone Circle: Samhain - 100 Hour Fire

Samhain is often seen as the “end of the year” in the Pagan calendar. A time when the bridge between the physical and spirit dimensions of this world is felt to be the most “open”, it is a celebration of connection and honoring of our beloved ancestors. This is a potent time for ancestral honoring and healing work, and an important opportunity to contemplate our own role and standing as ancestors of the future yet to come. In this ceremony, we will work reverently with these themes and celebrate our sacred connection to those who came before us, and those who will come after. We invite you to bring a small offering for the fire that represents or honors an ancestor you wish to acknowledge as part of the ceremony.

More About The Stone Circle:

For many thousands of years, humans from land-honoring spiritual traditions have aligned their sacred ceremonies with the natural seasons and cycles of the Earth, the “Wheel of the Year” according to modern Pagan traditions. In many of these traditions, sacred sites of “standing stones”, Stone Circles, such as Stonehenge in the United Kingdom, mark sacred locations and the potent Earth energies therein to hold space for sacred ceremonial work.

In this series of offerings, in partnership with the Rootstock community, Eyal invites you to join in the creation and cultivation of a living human “Stone Circle”, which we will energetically and spiritually hold in our ceremonial gatherings during the important seasonal transitions of the Wheel during 2024. Inspired by the spiritual practices and teachings of the modern Druid tradition, we will come together in ceremony across the seasons, to honor and celebrate the natural rhythms of the Earth, and invite the ebbs and flows of the natural world to speak to our Spirit, and guide and hold us in our own inward growth and evolution.
