Seasonal gathering : Winter Solstice

Winter Solstice : The rebirth of light

Do you want to join an anti-capitalist Christmas and a safe space to talk about climate-related emotions?

In this workshop from « Compass for Climate Chaos », we explore how to navigate in darkness and find hope again. 

Indeed, Yule, occurring at the Winter Solstice around December 21st, is the celebration of the longest night and the rebirth of the Sun. This festival symbolises hope, renewal, and the return of light to the world. As the Sun's warmth begins to return and promise the coming spring, people celebrate by lighting candles, gathering around fires, and decorating their homes with symbols of the Sun and evergreens to represent everlasting life. Yule is a time of joy and festivity, where the darkness gives way to the light, reminding us of the resilience of life and the warmth that lies ahead.

Talking about emotions related to the climate crisis is not easy and should not be an individual responsibility. With the project “Compass for Climate Chaos”, we explore ways to navigate through the climate crisis towards hope and empowerment.

From September 2024 to August 2025, we are doing this together by following the wheel of the year, reconnecting with the rhythm of the seasons, with ourselves and with others through different collective tools and creative practices, inspired by climate psychology, the Feel/Act/Balance method and the work that reconnects.

Program : 

• Grounding introduction

• Navigating in climate chaos

• Changing perspectives 

• Going forth

Dinner included

The event has a maximum of 20 participants. Compass for Climate Chaos is free of charge, but you are required to sign up via the formula on this page or you can write to sarah@noah.dk. Please write which Compass for Climate Chaos event you will be attending when you sign up.

*There will be 8 workshops, based on the same methods but all different. You can come to one or them all, as you wish. They are drop in workshops, so you can just join if you feel like it. Just let us know, so we will make sure there will be food for you.

Disclaimer : We are not therapists nor psychologists. We are aiming to create a room for bringing feelings related to the climate together, find people who share the same worries and concerns to work with emotions and reconnect to hope and empowerment. We have therefore to stress that if you have severe anxiety or mental distress, we do not have the capacity to offer you  a safe space and ask you to be aware of your own needs and capacity for self-care.
