UPDATED: 5/13/2024

 

Nestled in the heart of the greater Richmond area, our eclectic pagan coven, known as the Sisters of Shattered Sun, is a sanctuary for those who are drawn to the mystic rhythms of the earth and the sky. Primarily composed of spirited women, our circle is a tapestry of diverse souls, each member bringing her unique blend of magic, wisdom, and spirit to the collective. Our coven is a space where ancient traditions meet modern perspectives, creating a vibrant community dedicated to exploring the myriad paths of pagan practice.

Embracing the kaleidoscope of pagan beliefs, we celebrate the spectrum of spirituality, from the reverence of nature to the worship of multitude deities. Our practices are as varied as the members who call the Sss home, ensuring that our gatherings are always infused with creativity, compassion, and curiosity. We honor the cycles of the moon, gathering under the cloak of new and full moons to harness their potent energies. These lunar celebrations are times of reflection, manifestation, and deep connection with the divine forces that guide us.

Beyond the lunar celebrations, our circle observes the wheel of the year, marking the passage of the seasons with joyous festivals and solemn rites that align us with the eternal cycles of birth, growth, death, and rebirth. From Samhain's shadowy mysteries to the vibrant abundance of Lughnasadh, each holiday is a cherished opportunity for communal joy and spiritual renewal.

Our coven is also a crucible for personal growth and magical exploration. Members are encouraged to embark on personal projects, whether crafting enchanting talismans, delving into the arts of divination, or cultivating sacred gardens that bloom with intention and magic. These projects, undertaken with the support and wisdom of the coven, not only deepen our individual practice but weave our energies together, strengthening the bonds of sisterhood and spirit that define our community.

The Sss is a welcoming haven for those who seek to journey through the shadows and light of their inner worlds, for those who wish to live in harmony with the natural and mystical realms. Here, within the embrace of our circle, you will find acceptance, understanding, and a shared zeal for the endless journey of discovery that is at the heart of the pagan path.

Whether you are seasoned in the old ways or newly called to the pagan fold, the Sisters invite you to join us in our celebrations, our rituals, and our quests for knowledge and connection. Together, let us explore the boundless possibilities of magic, nurturing our souls and the earth alike as we walk the ever-unfolding path of the ancient and the eternal.

Our founder was formally trained by Gavin and Yvonne Frost. Welcome home.
