The values of the Reclaiming tradition stem from our understanding that the earth is alive and all of life is sacred and interconnected. We see the Goddess as immanent in the earth’s cycles of birth, growth, death, decay and regeneration. Our practice arises from a deep, spiritual commitment to the earth, to healing and to the linking of magic with political action. - excerpt from the Principles of Unity

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENTS
Dandelion Gathering 2019
A Dandelion Gathering is a coming together of the international Reclaiming community. There have been five pan-Reclaiming Dandelion gatherings, with multiple regional gatherings in-between.
The last all-Reclaiming Dandelion took place in Portland, Oregon in 2012 and at that event the Principles of Unity were revised to include language that specifically affirmed trans and non-binary people.
At the gathering in September of 2019, BIRCH was held and number of decisions were made via consensus.
