The Myth of the Wandering Goddess is one of the two most important myths of ancient Egypt. Just
about every town or region had its own version of the festival that celebrated and lived this myth.
SunFest 2025 takes you inside this key myth in a highly immersive, participatory way. Each ritual,
presentation, or workshop brings us into the myth so that we can live our own version of this vital
Egyptian myth.
Friday
- Arrivals & camp set up
- Opening Ritual: Creating Altars & Invocation of Sakhmet & Hathor
- Ritual: Sedj Sesherut, Breaking Red Pots
- Fire Circle: Seducing
Sakhmet, Dancing for
Her
Once you set up camp, join us as we invoke the magical presence of Mighty Sakhmet and Golden Hathor.
Then, before dark, we’ll discover why Sakhmet is angry as we participate in the Ritual of Breaking Red Pots.
We join Sakhmet in Her righteous anger as we SMASH things as we rage with Her against the injustices in the world and in our individual lives.
At the Friday Fire Circle, we learn a chant to seduce Powerful Sakhmet to return to us as we dance into the night—for Her!
Saturday
- Slideshow & workshop: The Myth of the Wandering Goddess
- Ritual: Sehotep Sakhmet, Pouring Out Red Beer for Her
- Workshop: Creating Offerings
- Ritual Procession: The Return of the Wandering Goddess
- Fire Circle: Blessing of the Seven Hathors
Bring your coffee and join us for a slideshow presentation that reveals the mysteries of the ancient
Egyptian myth we’re celebrating during this festival. After the talk, we’ll get a feel for both
Goddesses for ourselves as we work with Their powerful energies.
After the workshop, join us as we pour out gallons and gallons of Sakhmet Red Beer, ritually
brewed especially to appease the Goddess and coax Her to return to us. For without Her, we, like
the Sun God Re, are vulnerable.
After lunch, we’ll work together to create offerings to give to the Returning Goddess.
Later on, we join together in procession to celebrate the Goddess’ return and to give Her the
offerings She has been promised. We play music, dance, and toss flower petals in Her path as She
returns!
At the Saturday Fire Circle, the Goddess appears to us in 7 different forms and we receive a
blessing from each of these Seven Hathors. Then we drum and dance into the night!
Sunday
- Closing Ritual: Pouring Out Pure Milk for Her
- Workshop: Magical Protest with Chris
Sunday morning, we thank our
Goddesses and Wise Thoth and
release Their ritual presence. Bring
a small gift to participate in the
OWOW gift exchange, too.
Then stay to enjoy the day and
learn more about the magic of
protesting with power and
protection.
