About us
We are a tradition of Witchcraft based in the DC/NOVA/MD area. We put on public rituals for many of the sabbats as well as a number of classes on various Wiccan and Witchcraft-related topics. We are also a Wiccan tradition that people can participate in casually, or through the deeper path of initiation. All respectful individuals are welcome!

Firefly House Dialogue: Movies that Informed our Faiths
·OnlineOnlineJoin the Firefly House in our monthly dialogue series. The topic for this month is movies that informed our faith. This is a topic that Dash has been a part of with a different, more interfaith community, and it went rather well. They're interested in seeing what sort of movies crop up for members of the House dialogue, too, and why.
Anyone is welcome to join, even if you've not Pagan, even if you've never heard of the Firefly House before. We'll start fairly promptly around 7:05pm Eastern time, but you can probably still join until about 7:10 or so. To begin, we'll do introductions and ground rules. Once we've got all of that out of the way, our dialogue will last until 8:30pm, but if we're having a great conversation and would like to continue, we may go a little late, but not by much.
For now, if you're free and interested, RSVP to save the date. When you do, you'll be asked to enter your email. Dash will use that to send out some jump start questions the morning of the dialogue. You can use them to get your thinking caps on, or ignore them if you prefer to be surprised as to the direction of our conversation.
Our dialogues are in a format that our host, Dash, learned from participating in and training from The Church Lab, a non-profit organization that innovates for the sake of nurturing hope, joy, faith, and peace while considering the future of faith practice, both within institutions and without them, in the 21st century. If you'd like to know more about TCL, Dash is very happy to share. (Full disclosure, they're the chairperson of the TCL board, so they're definitely biased 😆)

June 2026 Full Moon Esbat
·OnlineOnlineJoin us for an experiment.
Dash has been doing online new moon events for a few years now, but they've not done anything for the full moons. They want to try and change that, but they're not sure exactly how things are going to settle out. They know they don't want to do the same thing as the new moon events; variety is the spice of life, after all. But, it might take a few tries before we find what works for online full moon ceremonies.
The first thing we're going to try is a sort of spiritual open mic night. Maybe bring a prayer or a poem or a song or a story. Whatever it might be, we'll give folks a chance to share it with those who attend. The goal? To feel a little closer to our own spiritual selves and to be present for the other attendees as they do so, too.
Will it be amazing? A flop? Who knows! Dash has only tried it once before, so they're still figuring things out and deciding if this'll be a long-term House event or just something we tried and decided wasn't quite for us.
