Ritual Time Change

The Toronto Temple has, for most of our history, started ritual at 8pm — or rather, set 8pm as the official gathering time while usually not actually starting ritual until 8:30pm or later. In response to popular demand, and in particular to make things easier for families with kids, and people who have a long way to travel to and from ritual, we are moving to an earlier start time as of Feb 7, 2010. Ritual from that day on will begin at 7pm.

Additionally, we will be making every effort to actually start at 7pm, so please plan to arrive earlier than that to ensure that you have time to get ready. We cannot guarantee that anyone arriving late will be admitted to the temple.

Public Classes

Classes are held every Tuesday night at 8pm at the Toronto Temple. Admission is free, but donations are gladly welcomed. Classes are held every Tuesday throughout the year unless otherwise specified below. They follow a year-long cycle that starts at Samhain each year, but students can start at any point during the year and attend as many or as few classes as they wish.

Public Rituals

Circles are held every Sunday night throughout the year. During the warmer months (from Beltane to the Autumn Equinox), they take place at Serena Gundy Park, except in case of rain when they are held indoors at the Toronto Temple. During the colder months, from Harvesttide to Beltane, they are held at the Temple.

Important Note: As of Feb 7, 2010, ritual will be starting at 7pm, rather than 8pm as has been our practice up to now. In addition, we will be attempting to start promptly at the scheduled time. See announcement at the top of this page for further details.

Admission to ritual is free, but donations are gladly welcomed.

About Feast Foods

When "feast foods" are requested for a sabbat or other special occasion, this means that people should bring some sort of food or drink to share in a potluck dinner after the ritual. Bringing feast foods for these events isn't required, but it is encouraged.

Because the sabbats are seasonally based, it is preferable to bring food that is seasonally appropriate and/or traditional to that sabbat. The class prior to each sabbat will usually contain a section on what foods are associated with that day, and there are a number of excellent resources on the web for seasonal foods in the southern Ontario area, including the following:
