Winter Solstice Event 2018.




ABC Invite you to share in the winter solstice and festive season on Midnight Thursday 20th December to Friday 21st at dawn for an hours vow of silence.

The shortest day and longest night of the year inspire mystical celebrations, both old and new, in anticipation of the sun’s return.

In 2018 in the northern hemisphere, the winter solstice is Friday December 21st with our gathering at 7.23am in the stone circle with a vow of silence to watch the sunrise at 8.23am and be at peace.

Remember, the days just get longer from here!

A spiritual gathering of like minded individuals who want to mark the festive season in a more natural way with mindfulness and meditation petitions for the coming year, singing, and storytelling are also part of the festivities, so what you can bring to share will be appreciated. 

Your ABC experience will incorporate pagan winter solstice celebrations marked by a small bonfire to burn a Yule time tide log and food. After the solstice, the abundance of darkness in winter often associated with SAD, Seasonal Affective Disorder, the northern hemisphere will begin to be balanced with the light of the sun and we are gathering to celebrate this.

We will be gathering again for our 3rd year to celebrate this magical evening to say goodbye to the end of shorter days and the victory of light over darkness along with others around the world with other winter celebrations.




We will meet from midnight on Thursday 20th until dawn at
