Casual | Ritual

Thursday,‍ ‍December 10th, 6:30-9:00 pm (Special 2.5 Hour Circle)

The Closing Ceremony

A year is a lot of life.

There are moments that change us, experiences that challenge us, things we never saw coming, and parts of ourselves we discover along the way. Yet we rarely take the time to sit with all we've lived, let alone share and acknowledge it in the company of others.

As we gather for our final Casual | Ritual Circle of the year, we'll reflect on the year behind us through meaningful conversation, shared stories, and the simple act of witnessing one another. We'll make room for the joy, the difficult parts, the unexpected turns, and everything in between.

Then, we'll turn our attention toward what we hope to bring into the next season of life.

Through intentional, hands-on creations inspired by nature and the returning light, we will explore the qualities we wish to embody and the ways we want to show up for ourselves as we enter a new season. You'll also receive a special Winter Solstice ritual to continue at home, carrying the experience with you into the new year.

An evening of connection, reflection, creativity, and intention. A chance to honor where we've been and make room for what comes next.

Whether this is your first Casual | Ritual or you've gathered with us many times before, there's a place for you in this circle. Come close out 2026 with us.

What to Bring:

  • Yourself, exactly as you are!

  • An openness to connection. You're always welcome to share as much or as little as feels right.

  • All creative supplies and take-home ritual materials will be provided.

What to Expect:

  • Meaningful Conversation
    We'll gather in a circle for thoughtful questions and honest reflection on the year we've lived. Everyone will have an opportunity to share, listen, and be witnessed in a welcoming space.

  • Intentional Ritual and Creating
    We'll work with seasonal, natural elements to create meaningful keepsakes. Each creation will hold a personal intention, offering something tangible to carry into the winter season and beyond.

  • A Ritual to Take Home
    You'll receive a thoughtfully prepared Winter Solstice kit and an additional guided ritual to begin on December 21 and continue through the final days of the year, culminating in a meaningful moment of reflection and intention on New Year's Day.

  • All materials are provided, and you'll leave with your handmade creation and take-home ritual kit.

Why Join?:

How often do we reach the end of a year without really taking stock of all we've lived? Before the holiday whirlwind carries us into the next season, we're intentionally slowing down. Making space to reflect on the experiences that shaped us, acknowledge what we've navigated, and celebrate what deserves recognition. Together, we'll give this year the attention it deserves before turning toward what comes next.

As always, when we gather in Circle, we recognize these truths:

+ This is a soul group divinely guided to honor and bear witness to each other inside a safe, sacred container.

+ Intimacy is created through our shared courage and vulnerability to allow ourselves to be fully seen.

+ We release the instinct to fix and problem-solve, but instead to be present with each other’s lived experiences.

+ We recognize that when people gather in sacred space, group healing will always take place, whether we are conscious of it.
