21st June Tara

The Summer Solstice is a celebration of High Summer when the Sun God is
at His most powerful. The main theme of the festival at Tara is that of
the Elements of Earth, Air, Fire, Water and Ether (also known as Akasha
or Spirit).

4:30am Celebration of Sunrise (facilitated by Gina McGarry)
6:00am Ceremony of Water (Yamann Brady)

Anybody wishing to come should get there as early as possible. There is
limited car parking space and if last year is anything to go by, the
numbers attending will be huge.

The actual Solstice falls on the 21st of June but as that is a Monday,
the festival is being held on Sunday 20th.
