    Autumn Equinox Reflection

    September 2026

    On September 22, the light and dark stand equal for a moment before the year tips toward rest in the northern hemisphere. This free contemplative reflection invites you to notice the balance in your life - between doing and being, acting and resting, work and play - and what may be ready to release.

    RSVP
  • Close-up of wet autumn leaves in various shades of red, orange, yellow, and brown scattered on a muddy ground with small green plants and moss among the leaves.

    November 1 Seasonal Reset

    November 1, 2026 - 7:00 pm ET

    The veil thins here — between what's ending and what hasn't yet begun. The fields stand bare; the dark asks us to slow down and be still. This contemplative hour invites us to reflect on what is ready to be released and to sit with the ancestors — those whose labor and love made our changemaking possible.

    MORE INFO COMING SOON!
  • Nighttime at a rocky outdoor area with moss-covered stones, tree roots, fallen leaves, and green foliage.

    Lammas Reflection

    August 1, 2026 - 11:00 am ET

    August 1 is Lammas, the cross-quarter day midway between the summer solstice and the autumnal equinox in the northern hemisphere. It invites us to pause and recognize the abundance as the light is starting to fade. During this contemplative hour we will play with a poem and a painting to reflect on what is ripe, what is ready to be cut down, and what is quietly waiting in this midway time. 

  • A lush green field with dandelions, trees on the right, and a river in the background under a partly cloudy sky with the sun shining.

    Summer Solstice Reset

    June 21, 2026 - 7:00 pm ET

    In the northern hemisphere, June 21 is the longest day of the year— the moment when light is at its fullest and the world is wide open. You’re invited to an online contemplative hour to rest inside that abundance, tend to yourself, and remember that fullness belongs to you too, not just your calendar. We will play with poetry to become present to ourselves and what is emerging.

  • A peaceful garden area with a dirt path, surrounded by lush green trees and bushes. There is a black metal bench on the right side, and a large tree with a thick trunk on the right. The scene is shaded with sunlight filtering through the leaves.
