Winter Finding – the Autumn Equinox

Posted on by

Saturday, September 14

Gathering begins at 7:00 PM
Ritual begins promptly at 7:30 PM

Please join the Denton Covenant of Unitarian Universalist Pagans on Saturday, September 14 for our celebration of Winter Finding, the Autumn Equinox. We will gather at DUUF at 7:00 pm and begin promptly at 7:30 pm.  We’ll be under the stars if the weather is good (and it usually is this time of year), in the RE wing if not.

On this Autumn Equinox we bring you a harvest festival from the land of ice and snow.  Inspired by the traditions of the sea-faring Vikings, this quarter day’s celebration will gather together our community by fire and sacred sacrifice to Freyr, King of Alfheim and his noble sister Freya, Queen of the Witches.  Hail to the Day!

Children 10 and older who can participate respectfully are welcome to attend with a parent/guardian. Childcare will be provided for younger children if requested by September 10.

Please bring a dish to share for the potluck after the ceremony.  Donations of a dollar or three to defray costs are welcome but not necessary.

For questions or information, please contact John Beckett at 972-948-9211 or JohnFranc@aol.com.

I grew up in Tennessee with the woods right outside my back door. Wandering through them gave me a sense of connection to Nature and to a certain Forest God. I'm a Druid in the Order of Bards, Ovates and Druids (OBOD), a member of Ár nDraíocht Féin (ADF), a member of Denton CUUPS, and a former Vice President of CUUPS Continental. I've been writing, speaking, teaching, and leading public rituals since 2003. My books The Path of Paganism (2017) and Paganism In Depth (2019) are published by Llewellyn Worldwide.
