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!

Due to health concerns regarding COVID-19, we have decided to take precaution over the health of our friends and attendees and found it would be best to cancel our spring Disablot gathering scheduled for March 21st.

Presently, we hope to see you at the Spring Social Gathering at 1 pm on Saturday, April 18th and/or our Beltane ritual on Saturday, May 2nd at 7 pm, until further notice.

We wish everyone a healthy, safe, and happy spring equinox!

Come join Denton CUUPs in celebrating our spring Dísablót, a celebration to honor the dísir, give them sacrifice, and celebrate the coming spring season as the dísir gather to deal in fate, fortune, death, and prosperity at their springtime parliament.

Samhain – “Summer’s End” – is the holy day that would become All Hallow’s Eve, and later Halloween. At this season the ordinary world and the world of the Gods and Ancestors draw close, and perhaps, overlap. In our ritual we will acknowledge this liminal time, and we will listen for the Otherworldly persons who would speak with us.

As we did in 2011 and in 2015, we will walk the Spiral Labyrinth. This is a rare opportunity to participate in a rite of beauty and introspection.

Children who can participate maturely and respectfully are welcome to join in. We will have childcare for younger children. In case of inclement weather, the Spiral Labyrinth will be set up in Miller Hall.

Gathering begins at 7:00 and the ritual begins promptly at 7:30. There will be a potluck after ritual.

Join us as we celebrate the harvest as it was honored along the Nile 3000 years ago. Here we will honor the death and resurrection of the god of agriculture, Osiris.

Gathering begins at 7:00 PM, ritual starts at 7:30. There will be a potluck after ritual, and childcare services will be provided.

If you have any questions regarding the ritual, please email the ritual coordinator Cynthia Talbot ( Cyntalbot@gmail.com )
