Full Moon Gatherings at Ruscombe

June is the “Strawberry” Moon, Friday, June 21 7PM-9PM

Join us each month at Ruscombe for an enchanting evening under the luminous glow of the full moon! The Full Moon Gatherings are a series of in-person events that empower and reconnect us with the strong healing of Grandmother Moon, and allow us to find rhythm between ourselves and the external world. We will connect to the more-than-human world, and with each other, as we share Full Moon teachings from cultures around the world, create ceremony to invoke lunar energy, and experience a different healing modality each lunation.

This June is a cosmically kismet time as we celebrate the Solar and Lunar Power with the Summer Solstice and Strawberry Full Moon!! The balance of life/death, Bounty/Humility, Light/Dark will be honored through the Goddesses Shekinah, Divine Light, and Yemoja, Goddess of all that Flows; Brazilian, Lithuanian, and Japanese festivals. You’ll be invited to eat strawberry treats, and drink ginger drinks (the herb of this lunation).

Weather permitting, we will be outside for most of the evening. We will provide chairs, blankets, mats, and bolsters for comfort, but feel free to bring your own. You are invited to wear brightly colored clothing, a necklace you love, and a small offering to Mother Earth, Grandfather Sun or Grandmother Moon. Blessed Be!

Don’t miss out on this captivating event! Mark your calendars and join us for the Full Moon Gatherings. Embrace the mystical energy and create unforgettable memories together. See you there!

Pre-registration encouraged, but Drop-Ins also welcome.
