Crow and Kokopelli will be in service.
This month we will be preparing for going inside during the winter months. We will be stoking the fires of our creativity and connecting with the power of love to sustain us and inspire us during the cold time. The deities we will be communing with this month are Krishna and Radha. Please bring a snack or drink to share and an open spirit. We look forward to seeing you there!
From those able, we ask a donation of $5 per adult in order to cover rental of the space and supplies.

2019 – Healing Mother Earth
As many of our congregants know, each year Hands of Change chooses a theme around which to plan our rituals and celebrations. Given the numerous challenges currently faced by our planet, challenges that threaten land, sea and sky – indeed, life itself – we at HOC have chosen Healing Mother Earth as the theme for 2019. As pagans, we are intimately connected to both God and Goddess as immanent in all of creation. It is time we used our energy, both magickal and mundane, to give back to our Mother and do our utmost to help heal the wounds our human species have inflicted upon her. Each month we will be presenting, on our website, some of the problems She faces, what some enlightened humans are doing to try to solve those problems, and what each of us can do to make a difference. So join us through the year as we do our best to Heal our Mother, and show her we care!

And 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.
