Gaia Gathering is a place where people from across Canada and from across the spectrum of this country’s Pagan religions an come together to talk about who we are, where we’ve come from, and where we might be going as a religious community in Canada.This year’s theme is “Reflecting the Waters’ Depth: Composing a National Identity.“ reflects not only the Ottawa River Location, but also the waters that unite us across Canada. This year we hope to focus on finding some of the answers to the question of “What makes us uniquely Canadian Pagans?” By sharing our experiences and our stories, we will look into the past, present and future of Canadian Paganism. What have we done? Where are we now? And what do we hope become?
