Entering the Dark - A Winter Journey
A Winter Journey
Beginning Sunday, January 3, we'll gather every other Sunday from 3–4:30 PM, continuing our journey through the North and the darker months of winter.
Each gathering will offer a new practice, exploration, or question to carry with you into the weeks between meetings. The intention isn't to give you another list of things to accomplish. It's to invite you to experience winter differently—to make room for stillness, listening, reflection, warmth, connection, dreams, and seeing what may be difficult to see in the ordinary light of day.
The every-other-week journey gatherings will be offered in person or online, giving you the flexibility to participate in the way that works best for you.
Participation in the gatherings is strongly encouraged, as the journey unfolds from one meeting to the next, but you don't have to attend every gathering. Recordings will be available if life, weather, or circumstances keep you away. You may also choose to pause and continue your own winter practice between gatherings.
The March 14 gathering will be online only.
We'll conclude our winter journey on Sunday, March 21 · 4–6 PM with an in-person Spring Equinox: Emerging from the Darkness.
After spending the winter looking inward and learning to see in the dark, we'll gather to honor what we've noticed, what has shifted, and what may be beginning to emerge as the light returns.
Join us!
Winter Solstice Gathering · Sunday, December 20 · 4–6 PM
Winter asks something different of us.
The days grow shorter. The natural world becomes quieter. We spend more time inside—sometimes by choice, sometimes because the weather gives us little alternative. It can be tempting to push through the darkness, fill the silence, and wait for spring.
But what if winter isn't something we need to get through?
What if the darkness gives us an opportunity to go inside, slow down, listen, and notice what becomes visible when we stop trying to illuminate everything?
Winter Solstice: Entering the Dark
We'll begin on the Winter Solstice with a two-hour in-person gathering to mark the turning of the season and prepare for our journey into the North. Together we'll create space for stillness, reflection, and the willingness to enter the darkness—not as something to fear or fix, but as a place where something new may become visible.
Come for the Winter Solstice gathering on its own — $45
