About this Event
Join us for a Fall Equinox gathering - an invitation to align with the seasonal balance of dark and light and to celebrate the harvest! The world is in equilibrium, between day and night, summer and winter; a perfect moment to pause before our descent into the dark time of the year.
We meet outside, in a circle, and open ourselves to learn from the earth and trees, the waters and sky, and all living beings, human and more than human. This gathering will include contemplative practices, silent wandering, and fellowship. All are welcome and respected at Roanoke Church of the Wild. We are a diverse, LGBTQ+ affirming spiritual community and welcome all faiths and beliefs. Please join us!
Sign up to receive updates and reminders for the event.
To Bring:
- A folding chair or blanket to sit on.
- Dress to be comfortable outside and wear sturdy shoes. Bring water to stay hydrated, and insect repellent, if needed.
- Food or drink to share (optional). Our theme this gathering is bountiful harvest! What are you harvesting right now? Locally produced items or something you made are ideal. Even if you don't bring something, please be welcome to enjoy the food and talk after the gathering.
Carpool to reduce our impact on the earth. Please arrive 15 minutes early - it is a 5 - 10 minute walk from the parking lot to the amphitheater.
The gathering will occur regardless of weather. You are invited to join us in experiencing the natural world in all of its seasons. Please dress appropriately.
Email us at [email protected] if accessibility is a concern, and with any questions.
