Join us at Vision Quest for a very special StarWater Wednesday in honor of our Beloved Sister Julian Herlihy. Julian radiated Loyalty and Open-Heartedness. She leaves an imprint of Self-Love and a steadfast practice of caring for others through the healing arts. She walked with a sense of adventure and always dreaming of the highest good. She met each challenge with grit and humor and lived life to the fullest. She will be deeply missed and honored by all that we're lucky enough to know her.
Julian was a member of the StarWater Crew for many years, showing up both artistically and in the service to a greater cause, whether on our Register or behind the scene moving 5gallon jugs of water. Julian was devoted to the group and always willing to help, even if the work wasn’t easy. Her laughter filled the room and her smile radiated into the hearts of each one of us.
We will host our Iconic Open Mind Open Mic In Julian’s Honor. She was a regular on our Open Mic, always showing up with Confidence and Joy, inspiring others to share and shine! We invite a you to join in a magickal evening that celebrates the vibrant tapestry of our community, in All the Realms.
If you would like to offer more than a song or two, please email starwater@starwatermagick.org to secure a longer set.

We will also be featuring a Community Ofrenda. An ofrenda is a decorated altar or offering that is a central part of the annual Mexican celebration of Día de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead. The word "ofrenda" is Spanish for "offering". We invite you to bring pictures of your loved ones who have passed as we honor our connections and grieve together for the losses.
Ofrendas are typically created by family members to welcome the spirits of deceased loved ones back to the world of the living. They are often elaborate and can include: Photographs, Flowers, Candles, Special food, and Items that the deceased enjoyed when they were alive.
We are committed to co-creating a healing and nurturing space for Collective Grief. We hope to continue the presence of the Ofrenda @ Events. We believe that our memories create our realities in many ways, and keeping alive the healthy, powerful memories is the best way to honor our loved ones. Tonight is a night to bring the energy of healing, as Julian would have done - and did do -in every way that she showed up.
At her memorial, it was spoken that Julian planted SO MANY seeds. Now, We are the ones who get to water them and watch them grow. Julian - We THANK YOU for all your service and devotion through the years. We LOVE YOU, and we know we will see you again! Until that moment, may we all learn to:
HUG LIKE JULIAN
Stay tuned for more information!
