PAN'S PICNIC Honoring (Y)our Ancestors: Friendly Gathering, Ritual & Potluck

Following the success of our first Pan's Picnic with Shamagika and Esoteric Expats, we are happy to announce a special non-Halloween "Halloween" gathering!

PANS PICNIC Honoring (Y)our Ancestors + Seasonal Potluck
OCTOBER 31 / TURIA-ALAMEDA / FROM 13:30

In cultures around the world, this is traditionally a time of year to honor the Spirits of the Dead. Magically, it is considered the ending of the annual cycle, a time to contemplate the coming winter months and energetically fortify ourselves, discarding and banishing any unwanted elements as we metaphysically journey through the Underworld towards the Spring. Feel free to read more about the various festivals and traditions related to this calendar threshold on Substack.

Join us for a very special Ceremony honoring the Ancestors, both collectively as humans and personally as your own lineage.

LOCATION
We'll meet under the Alameda bridge and proceed to a spot nearby.

PROGRAM
- A talk on the magical significance of this season, its symbolic meaning and how to best work it towards wellness and fruition of your ideas.
- An open circle to collectively honor those that have past over, sharing in our grief and joys together, as we celebrate the lives of the muertos.

- Potluck
