Morning Paths
Embracing the Yin
Facilitators: Morgan and Davis
Each of us is an integrated whole, connected to all other beings in the intricate web spanning universes. Our modern culture defines our identity in terms of our achievements, our outer appearance, our possessions. Yet to be whole, to discover the true depth of our identity, we need to embrace our being, our inner landscape, our intuition. Our inner worlds are often built from stories we tell ourselves and contracts we have made strung between the true parts of our selves. These stories and contracts which once served us have come into conflict with expression of our true inner being, They foster illusion, and do not support the inner soul connections we might otherwise nourish for well-being.
With the grace of mother spider and the elements, using tools of meditation, guided visualization, trance, introspection, daily practice, journaling and spell working we will reach deeply to support and reweave our inner web, coming into healthy relation with our empowered inner natures. We will use these practices with the intention of dispelling illusion and reaching deeply to support self-respect, create space for transformation, clear our inner vision and water our soul with healthy tears.
Priestessing from Within
Facilitators: Willow, Jade, & Moonsister
Discover the deep ocean of your own magic – the energy signature that is unique to you and your work in this world. We invite you to tap into that source of power through the transformative and mystery-revealing experience of personal practice; the deep well of knowing and connection. Learn to bring your magic forward in your public priestessing whether it is ritual artistry or negotiating group dynamics. We will offer a buffet of ideas and experiences to help you develop a personal practice that works for you and nourishes your work in the world. We will also explore new ways of accessing our creativity to experience the ineffable in ritual, to split our attention between inward and outward magic, refining ourselves as Artists of the Mystery.
Tween/Teen Path
Facilitators: Ann & Wolfstone
Earth, Air, Fire, Water and Spirit are the Elements we will explore as we do deep Magic together. Campers will create their own Elemental tools and befriend each Element. We will cast Circles, call the quarters and create our own rituals. Bring your self and curiousity, wonder and Intentions.
Kids Magic Path (ages 7-10)
Facilitators: Heather, Martialyss & Yarrow
How does magic work for you? Come to the Kid's Magic path to find out. Play with the elements of earth, air, fire, water, and spirit. We'll learn some magic, and connect to each other and our Mother Earth.
Pixie Path (ages 2-6)
Facilitators: JD & Corianna Moon
Having fun with artful creations, yoga, movement, music, and short walkabouts, we will tap into the natural wonder of wild childhood and play in worlds of sacred delight.
Elements of Magic
Facilitators: James & Wren
It’s elemental! In this experiential, participatory path we will cover basic concepts and tools of Reclaiming-style Witchcraft. We will build relationships with the elements of life “Air, Fire, Water, Earth and Spirit” in order to know ourselves in all of our parts, and to engage all of our parts for personal growth and social transformation. We will use such magical tools as chanting, movement, story, trance, altars and ritual to change our awareness and to work with natural energies that are commonly ignored or repressed in our culture. By the end of path everyone will be able to create sacred space, and to plan and participate in meaningful ritual.
We suggest that anyone interested in taking this path read Starhawk's The Spiral Dance and/or the "Elements Path" sections of The Twelve White Swans. In fact, they're recommended reading in any case.
Self-Guided Paths
You may be called to do very focused solitary pathwork where you spend the mornings in deep meditation, silence, or a particular activity. Only you know if this is the path for you. If you do chose to work completely alone, please let other people know of your intention, and your destination if you chose to be alone away from camp.
