Beltane Ritual & Secret Garden Reflection (A Zoom Event)
Join us on Zoom on May 4 at 7:00 pm as we celebrate Beltane with a gentle, guided ritual led by Elizabeth Van Rij.
This gathering will begin with a simple, visualization-based ritual honouring the turning of the season, the return of vitality, and the spirit of connection and growth. Drawing on earth-based and UU-friendly spiritual traditions, we’ll take time to reflect, imagine, and welcome what is coming into bloom.
Following the ritual, we’ll share a reflection on The Secret Garden (1910) by Frances Hodgson Burnett — a story of renewal, healing, and the quiet “magic” of coming back to life.
No experience with the ritual or book is necessary, just a desire to pause and be present. There will be an optional time to connect after the gathering.
Free audio or electronic copies of the book are here:
