[Online] Wed Aug 26 2026 8pm PST LUX AESTIVA

8-9pm Wednesday August 26th.

On the first Mercurial day in the sign of Virgo, on this holy day honoring Hermes Trismegistus, the triple avatar Hermes-Mercury-Thoth, the Archetype of the Magician Key I and Summer Splendor

22 Teachings and the Arboretum Mysticum present LUX AESTIVA 2026

For the first time in the history of Lux Aestiva, it will be held online as a virtual event this year. All students and friends of 22 Teachings are welcome to attend. This is a time of celebration and magic.

This year, Lux Aestiva coincides with the movement of Mercury into the sign of Virgo, which is aligning the holiday with the Magician’s Journey we have been doing throughout 2026. Thus, we will invoke the Magician and the Hermit and Naha will perform the rites of the second gem of the Pentagram.

All are welcome and encouraged to participate. Unlike regular events which require each individual to buy a ticket, you only need to sign up once per household, and you are encouraged to bring your family or friends,  and if there are other 22’ers in your region, to celebrate together.  There will be an opportunity to share should you wish to.

This event is offered by donation, and serves as the annual fundraiser for the 22 Teachings Scholarship program.

All proceeds go to the 22 Teachings student scholarship fund to provide financial aid to students of merit.
