New Moon Ceremony & Meditation

Tuesday, October 21 2025 -- astronomical twilight --  6:53pm  -- MIT Sailing Pavilion Dock
Thursday, November 20 2025 --  nautical twilight -- 5:56pm --MIT Sailing Pavilion

The new moon is a time of darkness, rest, creativity, and gestation.  Join MIT's Indigenous Spirit Community in a centering ceremony honoring the interior quiet time needed for discernment, regeneration and incubation.

Meet us at astronomical twilight for smudging with sage.  A short ceremony will be followed by a guided meditation and a ritual of focus and release.  Together we will watch the sky darken, letting the new moon, meandering current, and autumn breeze refresh our spirits.  

Then, we will all come indoors for a little something hot and a slice of cake.

Please RSVP.  This event is sponsored by Indigenous Spirit at MIT and is open to the MIT community and friends.
