SUMMARY:Full Moon
DESCRIPTION:Full Moon: HARVEST ENDEAVORS\nA time to harvest the wishes and intentions of past moons. \nThe Full Moon on April 2 2026 falls in Virgo. This moon highlights healing\, purification\, daily habits\, and restoring order to your body\, mind\, and spiritual practice. \n🌕 Virgo Full Moon Ritual — Clearing & Realignment:\nVirgo is the sacred organizer of the zodiac — the healer who asks us to clear what is cluttered so energy can flow again. \nWhat You’ll Need\n\n\nGreen or white candle \n\n\nMoss Agate\, Fluorite\, or Clear Quartz \n\n\nA small bowl of salt or earth \n\n\nPaper and pen \n\n\nOptional: a cleansing herb (sage\, rosemary\, or thyme) \n\n\n\n1. Prepare Your Space\nVirgo energy loves intention through small acts of order. \nBefore beginning\, take a few minutes to: \n\n\nclear your altar \n\n\nwipe the surface \n\n\nplace your candle and crystal neatly \n\n\nLight the candle and say: \n“Under this Virgo moon\, I welcome clarity and healing. May what is out of alignment be gently restored.” \n2. Identify What Needs Clearing\nOn your paper\, write three things that feel cluttered or draining in your life.Virgo themes might include: \n\n\nhabits or routines \n\n\noverthinking or worry \n\n\nphysical or emotional stress \n\n\nunfinished tasks \n\n\nself-criticism \n\n\nCircle the one that most affects your peace of mind. \n3. Ground the Release\nHold the paper over the bowl of salt or earth and say: \n“I release the need to carry this burden. May it return to the earth and be transformed.” \nPlace the paper beneath the bowl (or safely burn it if that is part of your practice). \n4. Call in Healing Order\nHold your crystal in both hands and take three slow breaths. \nSay: “With this Virgo moon I restore balance to my body\, clarity to my mind\, and devotion to what truly matters.” \nPlace the crystal somewhere you will see it tomorrow as a reminder of the shift you are making. \n5. Seal the Ritual\nTouch the salt or earth and then your heart. \nSay: “I move forward lighter\, clearer\, and in right alignment.” \nLet the candle burn for a few more minutes before extinguishing. \n\n✨ Optional Virgo Moon Practice:  The next morning\, choose one small practical action that supports the intention you set — Virgo magic works best through simple\, consistent steps.

SUMMARY:New Moon
DESCRIPTION:New Moon: NEW BEGINNINGS\nIt’s time for a clean slate\, start to gather your thoughts and plans. \nThe March 2026 New Moon occurs on March 19\, carrying the quiet energy of a lunar reset. This one is especially supportive for clarity\, releasing mental clutter\, and setting focused intentions for the next lunar cycle. Here’s a short\, specific ritual you can share or practice yourself. \nClear the Path Ritual:\nYou’ll need: \n\n\nA white or silver candle \n\n\nBronzite\, Smoky Quartz\, or Clear Quartz \n\n\nA small piece of paper \n\n\nA fireproof bowl \n\n\n1. Light the Candle\nTake three slow breaths and say quietly: \n“In the quiet of the new moon\, I clear what clouds my path and welcome focused intention.” \n2. Release the Noise\nOn the paper\, write one habit\, worry\, or distraction you are ready to release. \nFold the paper and hold it for a moment while imagining the weight of it leaving your body. \n3. Transform\nBurn the paper in the bowl and watch the smoke rise. As it does\, say: “What no longer serves me dissolves. Space opens for clarity.” \n4. Set One Clear Intention\nHold your crystal and speak one simple intention for the coming lunar cycle. \nExample: “Over the next moon cycle\, I commit to actions that support my calm and clear mind.” \n5. Close\nBlow out the candle and keep the crystal somewhere visible for the next 28 days as a reminder of your intention. \n\n✨ The new moon reminds us that even the smallest spark of intention can light the path ahead.

SUMMARY:Samhain Celebration
DESCRIPTION:Sunday\, November 2nd\, 2025\n1 to 5 pm\nThis is a family friendly\, free event for members.\nMembers of the Gathering Grove – details and planning on Discord.\nHave requests? Contact Us \nSamhain\, celebrated from October 31 to November 2\, marks the turning of the Wheel of the Year from harvest into winter. Rooted in ancient Celtic tradition\, it is considered a liminal time when the veil between worlds is thinnest\, allowing easier connection with ancestors\, spirits\, and guides. Fires were once lit to honor the sun’s waning power\, and offerings of food were left for wandering souls. Today\, Samhain is embraced as both a time of remembrance and renewal—an opportunity to honor loved ones who have passed\, release what no longer serves us\, and set intentions for the dark half of the year. It is the spiritual root of many modern Halloween customs\, carrying the deep magic of endings\, beginnings\, and transformation.

SUMMARY:Mabon Celebration
DESCRIPTION:Sunday\, September 21st\, 2025\n3 to 6 pm\nThis is a family friendly\, free event for members.\nMembers of the Gathering Grove – details and planning on Discord.\nHave requests? Contact Us \nMabon\, celebrated on the autumn equinox\, is a time of balance\, gratitude\, and preparation for the darker half of the year. This year’s Mabon coincides with a New Moon\, blending the harvest’s reflective energy with the New Moon’s power of fresh beginnings. While Mabon invites us to honor what we’ve gathered and release what no longer serves\, the New Moon encourages planting new intentions—making this rare overlap a potent moment for both closure and renewal. It’s a perfect day to align gratitude for the past with hope for what’s to come.
