Lighting our candles, we harmonize our vulnerability and integrity to bring balance to our hearts, and wholeness to ourselves and our communities.

We are moving out of the cold and dark time of the year and the light is increasing. This is a time to set our intentions as we move out into the world. What are your hopes and dreams for the future? What is your work in the world at this time? How can your community support you in this work?

Our Imbolc candle ritual has been a long-standing tradition in the Baltimore Reclaiming community. This is a time when we come together to share our intentions for the coming year and support each other with these intentions. You are invited to think of something that you would like to manifest for yourself or your community, or the world. If you choose, you can decorate a candle to support your intention for the coming year.

The ritual will allow us to support each other with our work. Please think of a short pithy phrase that represents your intention so that we can echo it back to you and charge your candle with yummy Baltimore Reclaiming magic.

Be prepared, this spell has been known to work!

Who is Baltimore Reclaiming?

Baltimore Reclaiming is a radically inclusive community of witches who use our magic to bring transformation, justice and healing to ourselves, Baltimore and the world. We are a group of witches, artists, pagans, healers, activists, queers, priestesses, anarchists, theater geeks, feminists, and other good humans. We see our work as teaching and making magic: the art of empowering ourselves and each other. In our classes, workshops, and public rituals, we train our voices, bodies, energy, intuition, and minds. We use the skills we learn to deepen our strength, both as individuals and as community, to voice our concerns about the world in which we live, and bring to birth a vision of a new culture. We gather, mostly on the Sabbats, to work magic, often for personal healing and also for the healing of our society and planet. We believe that the work we do together in our sacred circles really can change the world.

Cost:

Baltimore Reclaiming does not charge for our events, but we do have considerable expenses, including renting the ritual space and buying supplies for the ritual! We recommend a $10-$20 donation per person. No one is turned away for lack of funds. If you are inclined to donate, you can do that in person with cash, or Venmo RPC treasurer, Zac @Zac-Lawhon.

Drugs & Alcohol:

All Baltimore Reclaiming events are drug and alcohol free. We respectfully request that you do not use drugs or alcohol before or while attending our events.

Dress Code:

Wear whatever you like! You are welcome to wear everything from jeans and a t-shirt to a tuxedo.

We encourage you to wear whatever you feel most comfortable in.
