WINTER SOLSTICE With Emer Dolphin The Winter Solstice, the longest night and the shortest day of the year, is a special time; a turning point in the cycle of the Earth’s path, a turning point in the relationship of dark and light and a turning point in the wheel of our own lives as we close one calendar year and look forward to beginning a new one. This workshop will provide a simple, deep space to reflect on what we want to let go on in our lives that no longer serves us, and what we wish to call in to nurture us in the coming months. Celebrating the Winter Solstice in community is a very ancient tradition in Ireland. It links us to our ancestral past. It aligns us with the rhythms of nature and allows us to join with many other traditions and cultures worldwide that mark this special day. It’s also great to slow down, even for an hour or two at this very busy time! Date: Monday, December 21st, Time: 7pm - 9.30pm Cost: €15 Family €30 Build your own gardening course Avail of our garden team's experience!
