Event description

As the Earth begins to warm and the days grow longer, the signs of spring return all around us. The light is balanced once again with the dark, and the season of growth begins. In the Wurundjeri seasonal calendar, this time is known as Poorneet, the Tadpole Season, when life stirs in the waterways and the first warm winds blow through the trees.

We gather in this moment of balance to celebrate the Spring Equinox, also called Ostara, a sacred time to honour beginnings, beauty, and blossoming like the wattle.

Together we will sit in circle, reflect on the season of spring, and share what is emerging for us.

From there, we will take a gentle walking meditation through the beautiful Darebin Parklands, where the land is waking up with yam daisies, birdsong, and new green growth.

Details: Sun, 27th Sep, 6pm - 8pm

This is a gentle and inclusive celebration of the Spring Equinox. Whether you are a regular in ritual spaces or simply feel called to honour the changing seasons, you are welcome.
