Event Details

Celebrate Winter Solstice + New Moon with forest bathing, Druidic ritual, sound healing, and fire magick. Step into the light.

At the turning of the year, when the longest night gives way to the returning light, the veil opens— and the ancient Celtic currents begin to sing.

Celtic Light Rising is a full-day, multi-sensory ceremonial immersion weaving Druidic tradition, forest bathing, sound healing, sacred oils, and fire magick into a single transformational journey. Guided by Lady Eve of Singing Pines and Magical Michelle Orwick, this experience invites you to step through the winter threshold with intention, reverence, and deep soul presence.

This is not a regular solstice gathering.

This is a pilgrimage of the senses, an initiation of the heart, and a ceremony of becoming.

🌲What Awaits You…

✨A Living Temple in Nature

We begin inside the moss-covered embrace—moving from grove to bridge to water’s edge as each landscape becomes a temple in the rite. You will be welcomed through a portal opening, guided into Druidic circles, and invited into forest-bathing journeys that open the senses, quiet the mind, and reconnect you to the ancient intelligence of the land.

✨Rituals That Awaken the Inner Flame

Through Celtic ceremony, somatic nature practices, storytelling, and subtle awareness work, you’ll release the heaviness of the old year and attune to the returning light. Each step prepares the body, mind, and spirit for the renewal carried by the Winter Solstice and the New Moon that follows.

✨Sound, Oils & Embodiment

At the pavilion, you will enter a sanctuary of sound bowls and sacred anointing oils—blended from temple traditions and applied with care to activate your inner radiance. The vibrations, scents, and energies weave together to open intuitive pathways and deepen your connection to Source.

✨A Closing Bonfire Ceremony

As twilight settles, we reconvene at Michelle’s home for a private bonfire ceremony.

Here, we honor the ancestors, offer our prayers to the night sky, and ignite the seeds of what we are calling into the returning sun.

This final rite is where the whole journey integrates—

the release, the renewal, the blessing, the becoming.

🕯Why This Day Matters

The rare convergence of Winter Solstice and a New Moon creates a once-in-years gateway for deep inner alchemy:

The Solstice invites rebirth

The New Moon invites vision

The forest invites presence

The fire invites transformation

If you’ve been longing to reset your soul, receive guidance for the year ahead, or step into a new version of yourself, this is your moment.

This ceremony is for mystics, empaths, seekers, and anyone who feels the call of ancient pathways returning.
