### Benefits of Attending

This ceremony offers a peaceful space to pause, reflect, and reconnect during the darkest point of the year. Participants will:

• Open the heart and calm the mind through ceremonial Cacao and Rose, supporting emotional warmth, inner peace, and gentle awakening of the senses.
• Reflect with clarity using oracle cards to review the past year and set intentions for the returning light and the seasons ahead.
• Restore balance and presence through a guided meditation accompanied by sound healing instruments that help release tension and realign energy.
• Feel supported in community by sharing within a safe and compassionate circle, fostering connection and mutual understanding.
• Align with natural rhythms of the Winter Solstice — a moment of stillness, renewal, and the quiet promise of new beginnings.

This gathering is a time to listen inward, to soften into gratitude, and to prepare the heart for the light that follows the longest night.

The Autumn Equinox, also known as Mabon, marks a celebration of the final harvest. It is a time of abundance, gratitude, and reflection—a moment to give thanks for blessings received and to honour the fruits of our efforts, both literal and symbolic.

This turning of the wheel also ushers in Libra season. The equinox itself is a point of balance between day and night, and Libra, represented by the scales, reminds us of harmony, justice, and peace.

As the sun moves through this season, we are invited to reflect on our own equilibrium—acknowledging both light and shadow, and aligning ourselves with balance on our inner and outer paths.
