You are warmly invited to an in-person Ostara ritual honoring the Spring Equinox, a time of balance, renewal, and emergent life. As day and night stand in equal measure, we gather to root ourselves in practices of decolonization, anti-oppression, and ecological reverence.

Ostara marks the stirring of the soil, the return of light, and the sacred invitation to begin again. In this ritual space, we will explore renewal not only as a seasonal shift, but as a collective commitment: to unlearning systems of harm, tending just relationships, and nurturing reciprocal connection with the land.

What to Expect

• Land acknowledgment and grounding practice

• Guided meditation on balance and emergence

• Ritual reflection on what we are composting and what we are planting

• Shared altar space (bring a small, ethically sourced item if you feel called)

• Collective blessing for personal and collective intention

This is a sober, consent-based, and welcoming space for people of all genders, races, spiritual backgrounds, and experience levels. You do not need prior ritual experience only a willingness to show up with curiosity and care.

Spring does not rush, yet everything blooms. Come plant the seeds of the world we wish to grow.

Once a container is established and introductions are had, we can choose how to explore our time together.

Grief is the natural response we have to significant losses in our life. The emotional and physical pain we experience may be the result of a person or pet who has died, or from the loss of identity or roles, romantic and non-romantic relationships, environmental and community losses, and more.

During this two hour gathering you are invited to share, listen and reflect on your relationship with grief, in a nurturing circle of care, to experience the benefits of community and connection as part of the grieving journey.

If you'd like to bring an item that represents your grief, this is welcome but not mandatory. 

Breathwork is the conscious, intentional control of breathing patterns to improve mental, emotional, and physical well-being. It is also often used to induce altered states of consciousness, relaxation, or deep emotional release. When combined with spirituality, it acts as a tool to connect with a higher self, source energy, or divinity, functioning as a bridge between the physical body and the spirit.

Join Kody, Zen Buddhist Priest-in-Training and therapist at The Witch’s Therapist for a teaching and practice on Lovingkindness (metta) Meditation. Lovingkindness (metta) Meditation is a traditional Buddhist meditation focused on generating good-will for ourselves and those around us. It transforms our conditioned relationship with ourselves and our ego and allows us to dissolve the distinction between self and other. We offer lovingkindness progressively to ourselves, a loved one, a stranger, a difficult person, and all beings. This form of meditation is used in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, and Compassion Focused Therapy.

This practice will be held online via Zoom. There will be time for Q&A about the practice.

Join Maggie of The Witch’s Therapist for the grand opening ritual!

This ritual will open with a land acknowledgement, honoring the original stewards of this land and the living spirit of the place that holds us. From there, we will call in the elements and the guiding forces that walk beside us, inviting their presence as we weave the sacred container for this gathering.

Once the circle has been opened and the container established, each participant will be invited to step forward and share who they are and what has called them to offer their presence and energy to this grand opening ritual.

When all voices have been heard, we will enter into a period of quiet meditation, grounding ourselves and arriving fully in the present moment. From this centered place, each person will be invited to speak their intentions and desires for the future of this space and to light a candle in offering.

As each of the twelve candles is lit, the intentions of those gathered will begin to weave together, forming a living tapestry of vision and possibility. When the twelve flames are burning, a thirteenth candle will be lit at the center—a source flame that will serve as the hearth of this space, the fire from which all future candles will be kindled.

We will then raise energy together through music and sound, allowing the vibration to move through our bodies and flow outward into the walls, the floor, and the spirit of this place. In this way, the energy we create tonight will be seeded into the foundation of the space, carrying forward and growing with every gathering, every prayer, and every moment of presence that unfolds here.

Participants will be connected with prior to the ritual by Maggie to discuss their intentions and commitment.
