Woodland Witches Samhain Ritual 2025 (London)

Details

It's that dark time of the year.. as Autumn fades and winter approaches, our thoughts tunr to Pumpkins and halloween parties. But deeper within we ready our selves to honour our dead ancestors and remember our dead! Join us this night in the woods, where we burn away our regrets and fears in a small transformative Cauldron fire, guarded by the witches and the dark goddess Hecate. Then we prepar to invoke the Dark Lord of Death and Resurrection.. that he may open wide the veil between our world and that underworld where spirits rest.. We then call on our dead ancestors and loved ones gone, remember them . This is then followed by energy raising and rejoicing of our own glorious lives..
