The Opening Ritual We begin with a guided meditation — Anchor the Light — moving through the nine Hvels of the body together, creating a shared energetic field before the night begins.

ᛇ The Freyfaxi Ceremony In ancient times, Freyfaxi marked the first harvest with sacred horse rites. We honor this tradition consciously — recognizing horses as our ancient allies who carried humanity through the ages. Rather than sacrifice, we celebrate stewardship. Runic horse cakes, imbued with healing energies, are shared in ceremony — a symbol of our duty to protect, honor, and cherish the animal kingdoms who have walked beside us through the eons.

ᚷ Sacred Ceremony Priestesses open the four directions, invoke the gods and goddesses of the Northern Tradition, and lead the circle through Runic Galdr and energy work. We close with a traditional Sumbel.

ᚹ The Dance When the ritual is complete, the music begins — a curated journey of conscious electronic sound that carries the energy of the ceremony into embodied celebration through the night.

ᚲ Divination & Readings Runic readings and divination are available throughout the evening from practitioners in the ATL circle.

ᛏ Community Allies Our community partners bring their offerings — crystals, herbs, art, and wisdom — creating a full sacred marketplace alongside the celebration.

ᛟ First-Timers Welcome Booklets explaining the symbols, altar beings, and ritual structure are available at the door. You don't need to be pagan to feel at home here.
