ANCIENT ALBA AUTUMN EQUINOX PILGRIMAGE

£45.00

Autumn Equinox Day Pilgrimage In Scotland.

We will meet and journey together into Scotland’s longest and lovliest Glen.

Glen Lyon, Gleann Lìomhann its Gaelic name meaning ‘Valley of Lugh’ the Sun God in Celtic Mythology.

One of the richest archaeological areas of Scotland, the Glen has some of the highest density of Megalithic and Bronze Age sites in the whole of Scotland. The Glen holds sites aligned with the Autumn Equinox ~ and so we will journey there together in a embodied rite of passage with the seasonal turning.

Guided Seasonal Rite of Passage

Group Pilgrimage to Sacred Sites, Standing stones, Stone Circles + Ancient Yew trees

Mythopoetic Storytelling

Local Land Folklore + Tradition

Mugwort + Rowan Plant Connection + seasonal crafting

Our Pilgrimage will begin at Europe’s oldest Yew Tree ~ The Fortingall Yew. A tree I have personally been in connection with since birth, and a tree my maternal grandmother grew up alongside. I will be sharing her folklore, local history, stories I have been passed down from local elders and traditions, Yew tree plant lore + medicine. We will begin our Pilgrimage meeting this Ancient being that stewards the thresholds of life and death.

We make our journey into the Glen, and we meet beautiful waterfalls, Roman age bridges, Neolithic Standing stones before beginning our days Pilgrimage to a ancient site associated with fertility of the land and the Autumn Equinox. We let the magic and mystery unfold as we listen deeply to the pulse of the land and the changing season.

There is time and space to be with the waters, the trees and rest in the embrace of the earth.

We will gather in ritual at an ancient site, walking together through a seasonal rite of passage, giving offering and prayers to the land, sitting with the medicine of Mugwort in the form of herbal tea, tincture + smoke.
