Please bring a dish, a dessert, or a snack to share afterwards.

It’s going to be awesome. More details to come as we get closer.

Join Denton CUUPS in a ritual honoring Persephone for our Autumn Equinox gathering. Saturday Sept 17 at 7pm, we will gather at DUUF (outdoors, weather permitting) in an ADF, A Druid Fellowship style rite led by Rev. Lauren Mart, ADF.

We will center the cosmos through the Fire, Well, and Tree, and then make our offerings to Persephone as the Goddess over Life and Death as we enter the dark half of the year.

Please join us Saturday July 30th for our first harvest festival of 2022. We will be celebrating Opet, the Egyptian festival to Osiris the God of agriculture.

Potluck to follow.
We will be inside to help with the heat.
Please let us know if you have any questions.

This year’s Fall Equinox will follow our previous few rituals in virtual presentation. We will honor Demeter, Goddess of agriculture and fertility, and acknowledge the grief following the descent of her daughter, Persephone.

Gabrielle Milburn will be our ritual leader for the evening. Please join us live at 7:30 pm for our online watch party on our facebook group. We look forward to your attendance with us!

Please join us for our next online ritual for Lughnasadh! This ritual will be lead by John Beckett as we honor Lugh, Master of Skills.

Lughnasadh is an ancient festival named in honor of the Irish God Lugh and celebrated in memory of his foster mother Tailtiu. In this online ritual we will honor Lugh and Tailtiu, we will present the skills and virtues of Lugh, and if we choose, we will receive their blessings to help us meet the challenges we face in our lives and in our world.

Like our summer ritual, we will host a viewing party on Facebook, as well as have a video up on our Youtube. We look forward to sharing the day with you!
