The Conscious Community Coven Welcomes you to Dead Poets Society

Event Theme: Gravity

Join us for a special edition of Dead Poets Society, reflecting on Gravity. Weightlessness to extremely heavy... what does gravity mean to you?

Details:
Date: March 14th and Every 2nd Saturday of the Month
Location: Blessed Be Tea and Apothecary 116 E Front St
Time: 6PM - 7 PM
Suggested Donation: $5-$10 (Donations help keep our community events going, but they are not required to attend.)

Upon arrival, we will gather in a circle and take turns reading poetry in a round-robin style. Poetry may come from poets dead or alive, and our favorites are your own original works! Participation is encouraged but not mandatory—you’re welcome to pass if you don’t have a poem to share. However, it’s always more fun to join in!

Dead Poets Society is a community-based, open-mic style poetry reading event.

At Blessed Be, we believe in the power of words and the importance of creating a sacred space for expression. While our group focuses on poetry, we also welcome writers, musicians, and all performance artists to share both mainstream and original works.

Important Note: This event is not specifically geared for children. We ask that parents use discretion when bringing kids, as poetry can sometimes touch on sensitive topics. The event is recommended for ages 15 and up.

What to Expect: Led by Allie Robinson-Ollila, this gathering forms organically, and all are welcome! Walk-ins and tag-a-long friends are always welcome.
Come and be part of our poetic community, where words come alive and everyone’s voice is heard!

Imbolc Full Moon Party at Blessed Be Tea
Presented by the Conscious Community Coven

Join us for a cozy, open-house Imbolc Full Moon Party at Blessed Be Tea—a gentle gathering rooted in hope, renewal, and community connection. Imbolc marks the halfway point between the Winter Solstice and the Spring Equinox, a sacred threshold where the quiet of winter begins to soften and the first stirrings of spring are felt. It is a time to honor the light returning, both in the world and within ourselves.

This open-house–style celebration invites you to come and go as you please. Settle in with community, enjoy warm conversation, and take part in a short, accessible mini ritual focused on intention setting, clarity, and nurturing what is beginning to grow. Together, we’ll reflect on what we are ready to awaken, tend, and carry forward as the seasons shift.

Whether you stay for a moment or the full evening, this gathering is an offering of space—to pause, to hope, and to connect. All are welcome. Come as you are, and be part of the turning of the wheel.

Holding the Flame: Devotion Without Deities

We’re introducing a new conversation space called Holding the Flame—a gentle, grounded gathering for exploring spirituality without pressure, hierarchy, or dogma.

Our first event centers on Devotion Without Deities. This is not an argument against gods, goddesses, or traditional deity work. It’s an exploration of another path that exists alongside them—one that many people find more accessible, especially after complex or painful spiritual histories.

We’ll be talking about what devotion can look like when it isn’t tied to named beings, authority structures, or worship. How reverence can exist without fear. How meaning, ritual, and commitment can live in energy, cycles, ethics, and relationship rather than obedience or worthiness.

This conversation will touch on:

Why deity language can be activating after organized religion—and why stepping away can be an act of healing, not avoidance

How words like “god” carry emotional weight in the body, not just the mind

Spirituality rooted in awe, pattern, nature, and connection rather than personified power

Energy, balance, and participation instead of omnipotence

Myth as a tool for understanding, not a rulebook

The freedom for your practice to evolve, change, or remain unnamed

Devotion doesn’t have to mean submission.
It can mean presence.
Consistency.
Care.
Responsibility.

Holding the flame can be about tending what matters—without needing to name who lit it.

This is not a ritual, a class, or a decision-making forum. It is a space for presence, conversation, and mutual understanding—held with care and intention.

Every Third Thursday
Held on our Coven Discord
