^{The Stone Circle Council}

LGBTQ+ Pride Circle with Stone Circle Council

The LGBTQ+ Pride Circle is a sacred space co-created and held by queer pagans, heathens, witches, and their accomplices. This space will be used to:

• Connect with Queer Ancestors/Queer Mighty Dead

• Facilitate conversation around sacred queer spirituality

• Allow space to explore queer identity intersects with a participants path/tradition

• Engage in community brainstorming for “queering” our practices

• Hold space for processing of current events with community medicine

This circle will be held monthly in a virtual format to make it as accessible as possible for participants. Participants are asked to respect the privacy, security, and time of their peers by showing up before the formal circle space begins and not sharing the link with others.
