Samhain Special

Service Description

As the wheel of the year turns and we cross the threshold into the darker half, Samhain invites us to slow down, reflect, and honour both endings and beginnings. This ancient festival marks the final harvest, a sacred pause between light and shadow, where we are called to release what has passed and open to the quiet wisdom of the season ahead. We’ll begin with a candle-lighting ceremony, creating a moment to centre, connect, and set heartfelt intentions. You’re welcome to bring a small seasonal offering or token to place on our autumn altar, a gesture of gratitude, remembrance, or letting go. The practice will gently unfold through grounding breathwork and deeply restorative postures, offering space for the body to soften and the mind to rest. There will be quiet moments for reflection, journaling, or silently honouring your ancestors and the cycles of life that shape us all. We’ll close with a soothing soundscape, supporting the nervous system to settle and the spirit to integrate the ritual, leaving you with a sense of stillness, renewal, and gentle reverence for this turning of the year. Afterwards, you’re invited to share a cup of special herbal tea and a seasonal treat as we gather in quiet community. No experience is needed, simply bring cosy layers, an open heart, and a willingness to honour this sacred transition into the dark half of the year.
