In a time of rapid global change influencing us to always do more, we have created space to simply just "be". An opportunity to be in the moment, to be in our bodies, to be in relationship, and to be in expression.
The Warriors and Witches "festival" is a time of exercising what it is to be human in community. W&W Festival is a co-created, radical participation intentional celebration in the container of ceremony. In addition to all attendees being called into participate, attendees will also have the opportunity to co-create each experience throughout the weekend. We feel that taking action and sharing parts of ourselves is the very essence of community.
So, it is without further ado…
To those called, it is with great honor and trust that we invite you into joining our intentional community at Camp Moon for our first annual “Warriors & Witches” Festival.
Join us in the celebration of the Fall Equinox marking the end of summer and the beginning of autumn. Our “Dream Team” has prepared a weekend of workshops, rituals and celebrations to activate and awaken the divine masculine and feminine inside all of us. Sun time activities will be separated into groups of men and women. Men will embark into the mountain forest while the women gather in our flower gardens. Under the moon, we will come together in celebration that will inspire us to reflect upon and feel gratitude for the abundance in our lives.
A ticket is required to join us. Tickets limited to 33 men and 33 women. All proceeds from ticket sales will go towards the construction of the Starlight Pyramid.
Everything is better when done in community. If you’d like to offer a workshop, music, class or ritual for this weekend, please visit here to review the schedule and contact kalin.moon@gmail.com.

About the Atumn Equinox
The Autumnal Equinox is a moment in the year when day and night are exactly equal. The sun’s passage across the celestial equator marks the end of the summer and the beginning of autumn. The Autumn Equinox inspires us to reflect upon and feel gratitude for the abundance in our lives. It’s a beautiful time to share nature’s plenty with friends and loved ones, with dishes built around seasonal ingredients. The autumn equinox, also known as “Mabon” is a mid-harvest festival also known as the second harvest that is celebrated with communal feasting, dancing, and rituals for autumn equinox to channel the new energy of the changing seasons.
“I Heart Nature” Celebrations at Camp Moon
Warriors and Witches Festival is part of Camp Moons “I heart nature.” All of life is cyclical, endings and beginnings are always occurring around us...we have created space in the form of “I heart nature.” gatherings to celebrate and reflect on what is ending and what is beginning throughout each year. Gatherings which are annual festivals that celebrate our connection with nature. Each year we host to eight festivals – each one signaling a shift in the season, weather, and the natural world around us. On these dates, the beginning and end of the seasons are celebrated, such as the equinoxes and the solstices. The sole purpose of this calendar is to connect with nature and its cycles. Celebrating these seasonal shifts with festivities is intended to help us to connect with the spirit of our ancestors, a connection that leads directly to Mother Earth. “I heart nature” Dreamers are our festival supporters and may attend all Camp Moon “I heart nature.” celebrations at no cost.
