Wild Church Online - Fall Equinox

Wild Church Online Gatherings

These free seasonal gatherings are invitations to honor the turning of the Wheel of the Year and the sacred rhythms of the land. Within this shared circle, participants from across different watersheds come together to listen to the Spirit through guided practice, communal reflection, and direct connection with the wild.

Fall Equinox

Join us for a Wild Church gathering to honor the fall equinox, a simple, sacred pause to reconnect with the wild world and our own inner landscapes. This threshold moment, when day and night stand in brief balance before the light wanes, invites us to slow down and turn inward.

Our time together will include a brief equinox reflection, time to journal, and a short wandering practice outside with whatever patch of nature is near you (a yard, a neighborhood park, or even just a windowsill view). We will close by gathering back together in circle to share what stirred, holding space in a spirit of presence rather than performance.
