Step into the magic of Tweefontein’s autumn  gardens and join us for a heartwarming community celebration in honor of the Full moon and Autumn Equinox. We’ll call a sacred circle, invoking the elements. We will take a meditative journey, focusing on the bountiful growth we've nurtured, and are now gathering in to sustain us as the wheel of the year turns toward winter. We will engage with our bodies and breath to embody our insights and intentions.

On this enchanting evening, we will assemble to give thanks and celebrate the richness of autumn as the nights grow longer,  on our way toward the longest night on Winter solstice. ! Together, we will illuminate candles, partake in a magical herbal infusion, and enjoy a communal pot-luck feast afterward!


We will be gathering outside in the garden. Please bring a blanket, cushion, or chair to sit on. 

Please feel welcome to bring hand-held instruments and dress festively for the ritual! We will have tea light candles for everyone, but feel free to bring your own special candle if you like! 

If you are staying after for the potluck, please bring a healthy, nourishing dish or snack to share if you can, with a note listing ingredients. 

We will be providing paper plates and utensils.
