Our Story
The Sisters of Lilith and their annual Summer Solstice Festival emerged from a profound need for an authentic, magical event that celebrated the divine feminine in a welcoming and inclusive manner. For years, there had been a void in the spiritual community, a longing for gatherings that honored the ancient traditions of paganism while empowering individuals of all backgrounds.
The Sisters of Lilith recognized this need and took it upon themselves. Nestled in the majestic beauty of the Columbia River Gorge, they established their gathering as a sacred space for renewal, growth, and connection. Here, amidst the whispers of the wind and the rustle of leaves, attendees from diverse walks of life find solace and kinship.
At the heart of the Summer Solstice Festival lies a profound reverence for nature and its cyclical rhythms. Participants honor the earth and its bounty through rituals, ceremonies, music, and dance, immersing themselves in its timeless wisdom. The festival is a vibrant tapestry woven with threads of tradition, creativity, and spiritual exploration.
What sets the Sisters apart is their groundedness and practicality. They are stewards of ancient wisdom and champions of environmental activism and community service. Understanding the interconnectedness of all beings, they actively engage in projects that uplift and protect the earth, recognizing that nurturing our planet is essential to deepening our spiritual connection.
As the sun reaches its zenith and the world teems with life, the Sisters of Lilith gather in celebration. For them, the Summer Solstice Festival is not merely an event but a sacred journey—a time of joy, connection, and growth that resonates deeply within their souls. And as they come together year after year, they embody the timeless adage: as above, below, as within, so without.
Our very own Lilith
Lilith, the esteemed High Priestess and event organizer of the Sisters of Lilith Summer Solstice Festival, stands as a beacon of light and wisdom within the pagan community. Born into a lineage rich with spiritual heritage, Lilith's journey began under the nurturing guidance of her ancestors—a lineage deeply rooted in the Oregon Pagan Community.
As the granddaughter of one of the community's founders, Lilith inherited a legacy steeped in reverence for the earth and its mysteries. However, her spiritual tapestry extends even further, as she is also the daughter of a Lakota Shaman, weaving together the threads of diverse traditions into a vibrant mosaic of knowledge and understanding.
From a young age, Lilith was drawn to the arts, recognizing their power to illuminate the soul and connect humanity with the divine. Fuelled by an insatiable thirst for knowledge, she delved into studying ancient religions, immersing herself in the timeless wisdom of past cultures. Her journey of discovery led her to embrace environmentalism and healing herbalism, recognizing the intrinsic connection between humanity and the natural world.
Lilith has dedicated herself to organizing transformative events that bridge communities and elevate consciousness for over eight years. Her leadership is not merely administrative; it manifests her deep commitment to fostering spiritual growth and empowerment within the community. She orchestrates the Summer Solstice Festival with grace and wisdom, infusing it with reverence, creativity, and authenticity.
As a growing leader in the pagan community, Lilith continues to embody the essence of divine femininity, guiding others on their spiritual journey with unwavering grace and compassion. Her legacy is one of leadership, love, unity, and the eternal quest for truth.
