We have had initiations & amazing new additions to our corps; Eight fantastic sabbat rituals while helping the local community. We are constantly in awe of our people. Inner Circle Sanctuary is proud to have donated time and money to the Las Vegas and the US community for 2018. Donations totaling $4015.00 were given to: Temple of Sekhmet Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Las Vegas Las Vegas Natural History Museum Three Square Project 150 Wounded Warrior Project Meadview Public Library ASPCA Las Vegas-Clark County Library District Foundation Spiral Scouts Las Vegas The Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund International Dinners for At-Risk Families Kingman Cornerstone Mission Project, Inc Inner Circle Sanctuary also donated time to Pagan Pride Las Vegas We look forward to see what we can do in 2019! Our policy is that whenever we collect any money for an event, it is donated to the house in which we had the event in. We were honored to have partnered with both Sekhmet Temple and UUCLV for the majority of our events this year. Our students are never required to "pay" for classes, however, we ask for non-compulsory dues from a members. At the first year level, these dues total $15 for classes monthly and an additional $30 for each sabbat. The student can give cash to their instructors, who in turn puts it in the next sabbat envelope (which is given to either Sekhmet Temple or to the Las Vegas Natural History Museum) or the student is free to donate monthly to an organization they believe in and want to help. All we ask for is the receipt of that donation. This is why there is so much diversity in our donations.

 Lady Sisterwolf from Inner Circle Sanctuary
We are extremely proud of all of our members for making our style of Wicca so beautiful and wonderful. We are supremely proud and indebted to
Lady Sisterwolf for stepping out of the broom closet to be featured in the piece, despite most of her family not knowing she practices the Craft. Her courage is unfathomable. We are grateful for Kathleen Jacob and KVVU Fox 5 Television for wanting to create a news piece that wasn't a Halloween / Samhain trope. For the seven minutes they were allowed, the video turned out wonderfully! The ritual being performed is our Samhain festival with Lady Nashoba as High Priestess and Lord Tanys as High Priest. Lady Sisterwolf was the only person mic'd for the ritual and the camera stayed outside the circle for their video pieces. The interviews with Lady Sisterwolf and Lady Walking Turtle from the Coven of the Red Dragonfly were filmed a few days later during the daytime. Kathleen had put out a call in the pagan community to everyone she could contact via Witchvox and met with a few people in person to pitch her story. Our Lady Sisterwolf introduced and invited her to the Las Vegas Pagan Pride Day event where they also interviewed and filmed extensively. It is our understanding that the footage from Pagan Pride Day will be used for another news video piece at a later time. We were grateful that Kathleen offered us a preview of the clip before airing so we could correct anything if needed and if possible. Lad y Sisterwolf enjoyed her time contributing to this story and is extremely proud of its result; as are we. Huzzah!

NEW MOON Open Circle hosted by Inner Circle Sanctuary Saturday, Nov. 18, 2017 Starting at 6pm The New Moon marks the beginning of the moons cycle. It is the perfect time to set your intentions in motion. The New Moon marks the beginning of the waxing phase. It is the perfect time to grow the abundance you deserve. The New Moon is the darkest night of the moons cycle. It is the perfect time to draw into you that which you desire. This event is RSVP only. Please email us at innercirclesanctuary@gmail.com or message us here for location details. $10 donation or bring what you can afford. Our 'About Page' starts with this statement. For a quarter of a century, we have practiced our brand of Wicca and taught it to the public regardless of gender, race, sexual orientation, political orientation, health, and class. We see more similarities than separation among people, and transform our differences into strength. Inner Circle, in all it's incarnations, has always been inclusive and we maintain that stance even more so today. The High Priest of our group, Lord Mordred, (whom we affectionately called the Dark Lord) had many sayings we loved dearly... including this one: "Everyone has a right to the Goddess."  Anyone who wishes to join us will have to accept that we may have a gay couple leading our ring... we may have a trans-gendered person paired with a partner leading our ring... and they will kiss one another, as is the way of our rituals. We already have plenty of priests and priestesses who have no issue with performing these rituals so it is not required, but if you wish to join us, you have to be accepting of this. The "it's Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve" has NO place in our Wiccan coven.  There is a Wiccan chant that seems like it's been around forever that says: We All Come From The Goddess We believe that 'We All Come From the Goddess' and since We are a part of Nature and We hold all things in Nature in reverence, We ourselves hold each other in reverence. This is a core belief of Wicca and anything else is completely incongruent with that belief.
Board of Elders, Inner Circle Sanctuary  What You Need To Know About Tarot with Lord Tanys from Inner Circle Sanctuary SATURDAY, AUGUST 19, 2017 at 6pm This event is RSVP only. Please email us at innercirclesanctuary@gmail.com or message us here for location details. $10 donation or bring what you can afford. 100% of donations are given to charity. "The tarot (first known as trionfi and later as tarocchi, tarock, and others) is a pack of playing cards, used from the mid-15th century in various parts of Europe to play games such as Italian tarocchini and French tarot. In the late 18th century, it began to be used for divination in the form of tarotology / cartomancy." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarot Join us on our Facebook invite for tarot tidbits until the event.
