2020 – Dancing with Light and Shadow
-
As beings of Light, we are drawn to the Light. There is no light without dark. There is no dark without light. This is the law of Yin & Yang. This year Hands of Change will be exploring the polarity of Light, which can be seen as the idea of Perfect Love and Perfect Trust, in the energy that we all are beneath the skin, and in the cycle of the seasons as the days grow longer and then shorter again.

ISHTARFEST 2020 Save the date- October 9th thru the 11th- as we journey with the Goddess into the new decade! Details will be updated on the website as we drift closer to the date! #ishtarfest #ishtar #sumer #pagan #paganfestival #festival #wicca #witch #witchcraft #fallfest #magic #magick #witchesofinstagram #pagansofinstagram #community #networking #ritual #drumcircle #handsofchange #handsofchangenjAnd now for something completely different... Put on your dancing shoes and join Hands of Change coven as we go on a field trip to @irongardennj in Newark, NJ. Join us Friday, November 29th, at 9pm sharp. Our very own Crow will be the keynote presenter on the Goddess Inanna of Sumer (whom Ishtarfest is based on). What is the relationship of the Goddess Inanna to Ishtar and Lilith? Why is she an excellent patron goddess for people who follow alternative lifestyles? This and other questions will be answered in this somewhat irreverent presentation on Inanna of Sumer, goddess of love and war. Crow will also be serving as priestess of Ishtar in a ritual with magician and performer Jeffrey Jene. Hear the words of the Goddess Ishtar, whom we will invoke and draw down in a sacred space. This ritual draws on ancient Mesopotamian poetry and magick to lend it power and focus. Here's the tentative schedule for the evening: 9:00 Conclave: Lilith Mother of Demons with Kevin Meares 9:30 Call to Order & Welcome 9:45 Key Note Presentation: Inanna of Sumer with Amara Willey of Hands of Change 10:00 Citizenship & Distinctions 10:15 Community Announcements & Introductions 10:30 Art Auction: Vincent Musetti and Skylla Kaiju 10:40 Ceremony: The Calling of Ishtar by Jeffrey Jene (with Amara) 10:55 Raffle Drawing – Save the Raptors! 11:00 Socialization, Music, Dancing and Fun! #pagan #nightlife #community #club #lilith #inanna #ishtar #ishtarfest #goddess #sumer #priestess #wicca #nightkind #dancing #pagansofinstagram #wiccansofinstagram #witchesofinstagram #witchcraft #ritual #irongarden #handsofchange #handsofchangenjTonight's full moon ritual at the USNB.
