Full Moon Gatherings

Cold Full Moon 

We gather on Sunday, 15 December 2024 at Branksome Chine Beach to dance, to share, to conduct simple ceremony. We gather as a community to honour the cycles of the moon and what this time may mean for us personally. 

The Cold moon is the full moon closest to the Winter Solstice.  This is the last full moon of 2024, symbolising reflection, closure and renewal.

Pagans named this the the Mourning Moon, a time to release old ideas and things that may be weighing one down and to mourn their loss.

Wrap up warmly, bring water or a hot drink. and something to sit on as the sand is quite chilly this time of year. 

We meet at an earlier time of 5:30pm to 7pm.

We have a limited number of headsets ,so please either book ahead on Eventbrite or let us know you are coming so we can reserve a headset for you.  Your exchange helps toward the beach event fee and our equipment.

TICKETS: £5 +Eventbrite fee

BEAVER'S MOON 15 NOVEMBER 2024

We gather on 15 November 2024 at Branksome Chine Beach to dance, to share, to conduct simple ceremony. We gather as a community to honour the cycles of the moon and what this time may mean for us personally. 

Beaver Full Moon on the 15 November 2024 is the last Supermoon of 2024. This is a time of year when beavers would retreat to their lodges, after storing enough food for the Winter months. 

 

This full moon represents diligence, being prepared  and gathering the resources needed for what is to come over the colder, darker months. As the beaver has worked diligently to gather their resources and store enough food for Winter, so too are we being called to put in the effort necessary to gather our resources ensuring that we have enough of a supply to see us through the months ahead.

 

HUNTER's MOON

As the sun retreats to the South and Winter approaches, the Hunter's Moon is a time of introspection, where we take time for inner contemplation, to take stock of the harvest recently passed and the things in our own lives that are bearing fruit as a result of the focus,  intentions and actions we have taken.  This Autumn we are reminded to stay connected to the natural rhythms, to stay grounded and connected to our purpose.

 

The Hunter's Moon is a powerful celestial occurrence, where the moon rises earlier. It is the third supermoon of the year. This full moon symbolises clarity and encourages one to gather resources and focus on what is needed as we prepare for the coldest months ahead, as well as preparing for the forthcoming year.  We can use the illuminating energy of the full moon to gain insights into our own lives. Look at this as a times for spiritual growth and align yourself with your true values.  This Hunter's Moon is in Aries, and is a perfect time for you to harness the fiery energy and to take action on any new goals you have been cultivating..  

 

We gather in a beautiful natural setting of Badbury Rings, illuminated by the brightness of the full moon.  Bring items that represent the year's experiences and reflect on the past year, acknowledge your triumphs and challenges, and areas of personal grow.  Express gratitude for the experiences you have gone through and the lessons you have learnt; gratitude those who have supported you this past year, and the changes that you have nurtured in yourself. Set intentions for the coming months, the hopes and dreams you will choose to focus on. Allow the Hunter's Moon to illuminate your dreams, goals and intentions.  

 

Join us for our magical Full Moon Gatherings where we come together in celebration and dance under the enchanting glow of the full moon.  We meet at Badbury Rings, Wimborne on the night of the 17 October at 18:30 until 20:00.

 

Experience the magic of conscious dance in these unique and sacred locations as we come together to honor the cycles of the moon.

We only have a limited number of headsets. So please let us know in advance if you plan to join us.
