Summer Celebration Circle

Monday, August 1st 2016 @ 18:00

lammascircleAugust 1st, the middle of the Summer season (halfway between Summer Solstice and Autumn Equinox), has traditionally been celebrated through a Harvest Festival known as Lammas, Lughnasadh and other names.

In our busy city lives, we often forget to stop up, reflect, and anchor ourselves in the seasons. Yet, it is a practice that promotes gratitude for life, and a deeper connection with nature and the passing of the year.

The Straw BaleI therefore invite you to join me in a Celebration Circle in Amager Fælled, and to celebrate together in a very different yet very ancient way, Summer and the wheel of the year. If you are not sure what a Celebration Circle is, you can read more about it here. In short, we will together, in turn and one by one, contribute to the building of this Celebration, while getting deeper into our own understanding of what Summer represents to all of us. It will be fun, too! Please, don’t let shyness hold you back: you can be fully present without needing to speak :)

Registration is necessary, as I need to know the exact number of participants for preparation. So please, write me at sofia@wisdomcrafts.com to register, or ask any questions you may have.

All humans are welcome, including children, as long as they are willing to actively participate in the Circle. Children playing in or outside the Circle risk to be very disruptive, so just write to me if you are in doubt.

Nature in the middle of the cityNo pets this time, unfortunately, as there will be other animals nearby.

I have found this beautiful spot in Amager Fælled, not too far from public transportation, yet far enough from everything.

I wish for everyone to benefit from the beauty of Circles, so the event  will be donation-based, which means that you contribute to the organization of the event depending on your abilities (donation jar on site).

The practical details (location, what to bring) will be sent to you by email once you register.

Come to the Circle! I’m sure you won’t regret it 😉

Summer Solstice Celebration Circle

Monday, June 20th at 19:00 on Amager Beach, Copenhagen

Come and celebrate the summer solstice in a new and unique way:

a Celebration Talking Circle

Whether you have previously celebrated the Summer Solstice, either by yourself or with others, or you have always wanted to honour the passing of the seasons but have never known just how, this is an invitation to  join others on the beach as we discover together a brand new way to celebrate in community!

What can you expect from this event?

  • you will experience a deep and meaningful way to celebrate the passing of the wheel of the year
  • you will have a chance to discover the magic of the Circle, and to share with others in a real and connected way
  • you will enjoy the cleansing sea air on the first evening of summer (we will sit on the beach, so wear comfortable clothes – there will be something to sit on)
  • the Circle will last approximately 2 hours (the nature of Circle makes it difficult to join in late, so please be on time)
  • food will be served to share together (you can tell us about your diet in the registration form)
  • if you wish to bring children along, be mindful that they must take part in the circle, and not play outside of it, as it could compromise the integrity of the Circle. Please email us if you are in doubt.

Cost: in order to cover expenses for food and organization, we ask for a participation donation. Payment can be made after registration through MobilePay, or in the donation jar at the event.

If you have any questions at all about this event, don’t hesitate to email me at sofia@wisdomcrafts.com.

Please register below, as there is a limited number of seats due to the nature of this circle. Registration deadline is Sunday, June 19th. You will later receive an email with all the details about this event (precise location, what to bring, etc.).
