45th Annual Fall Gathering of the Tribes - Iowa September 14 thru 16 ` |
Gatherings provide us an opportunity to express our religious freedom of choice. We celebrate and honor the Old Ways of Spirit and Nature.
Gatherings are community affairs, which we hope, will reach out to every Pagan, Heathen and Hopeful Spirit in these areas!! All Respectful Seekers Welcome!!
The Gathering of the Tribes, which have been continuously held since the late 60s, has provided Pagans of the various traditions a common ground to appreciate the similarities between other paths. The Gatherings provide us an opportunity to express our religious freedom of choice and celebrate the Cycles of Nature. We share the passion of our beliefs and what is sacred in our life, with others. Our Bardic and nightly Drum Circles provide a way to celebrate our coming together. We sing, dance, drum, and feel the vibrations rising from the Earth with each beat of our hearts. We celebrate and honor the Old Ways of Spirit and Nature.
With the times being as hard as they are, folk are looking
less and less at the brighter things in life, and concentrating on what
isn’t in the wallet. We need this event; we need it to reconnect with our
Faith and ourselves.
This is a grass roots effort. There are only a handful of us working to
bring this about. We are hopeful to find our lost friends and brethren.

Sometimes this is the only gathering a person will go to all year. They may be in an area that does NOT have occult bookstores or jewelry or clothing. This is their only chance to obtain this type of merchandise. Thank you vendors for adding to our gatherings.

The original and authentic Gathering of the Tribes held its initial festival in the forests of Northwest Maryland in 1967.
CLICK HERE TO SEE HISTORY Dynion Mwyn held the Gathering of the Tribes in Maryland from 1967 to 1970; in Georgia and South Carolina from 1971 to 2009 and in Iowa 2010 and 2011. We are going to hold the 2012 Gathering in Georgia AND Iowa.2012 will be the continuation of a new era of Pagan Festivals. We want to invite you to take part in this wonderful experience. Because of the cost of gasoline may place constraints on the distance you can travel this year we are holding the Fall Gathering of the Tribes in two locations: Northeast Georgia and near Waterloo Iowa. We want to make our unique Gathering available to as many Pagans as possible. Come join us...become part of the history of the Gathering of the Tribes.
