Hello Friends & Be-Loves,
As we go into 2009, our family keeps growing into an ever-widening circle of temple women and men. Our new year is going to include a new training center / sanctuary with healing chambers here in the Valley of the Sun. Teachers and students are enjoying thing urban group practice here in Scottsdale, we continuously have a greater demand for appointments than we have practitioners to fill the need. The training center offers a practicum and school opportunity that is unique for teachers and students. Our teaching temple and 'ashram-style' home allows everyone to actually 'practice' the healing arts with seekers and initiates.
We are still accepting full time practitioners in our ' Pillar" program. We are open to all genders / orientations, and have a special need for our "Mystic Sisters" mentor program, where female healer is assigned to apprentice with one of the established Priestesses of the Temple. At this time, we are only accepting training applicants who are willing to appear on camera with our teaching staffl.. We also have need of a few good temple men who are free enough in life to appear as a seeker or initiate on video, either in session or as part of a panel discussion. Singles, couples, men and women are all needed to appear on our Temple Life educational videos.
Much love & light to all friends. both g-old and new,
Tracy Elise, Mother Priestess

CLASSES
This year we are incorporating some new features in our class schedule. Starting on January 18th Geno will be teaching a Mens Circle class on Green Dragon, that will then repeat on the third Sunday of every Month, and will permit the men build on what they learn and practice month to month as well as giving men who can't make one class the chance to take it next month. In February Geno will be adding the class American Tantra to be held on Sunday February 22th for the first time, and then continuing to be held on the 4th Sunday of every month with our Men's Circle. The Program will be rounded out in March when Geno brings his Brotherhood Circle to our Mens Circle. The Brotherhood CIrcle will present Rites of Passage from various Indignous Cultures and will take place on the 2nd Sunday of each month begining March 8th.
Geno's series will continue a trend started last year for the Womens Circle.
Rounding out our Mens Circle series of classes, the first Sunday of every month Tracy will be leading a class in Energetic Mastery and Root Chakra Health for Men. This is a vital issue in men's health. Frequent movent of Rroot Chakra energy resulting in orgasm has been scientificaly shown to reduce a mans risk of prostate cancer by 30% when performed on a consistant basis, 3 to 4 times a week.
Lastly, our modern calender gives us a 5th Sunday four times per year, and so, in keeping with out idea of having repeating events for our Mens and Womens Circles; we will be having a "Meet the Goddesses" evening on every 5th Sunday. The first one will be March 29th. This will let the men meet the Goddesses in an informal setting, and will let each Goddess tell about her own Healing Style and the special Ceremonies she offers, like the Bath Ceremony.
Since Geno's Cycle of classes is not yet fully in place, we still have some special classes for our Mens Circle to round out their schedule for January and February. Tracy is teaching a class on "Addicted to Porn: a fresh approach to self pleasure" on Sunday January 25th. .
Our Womens Circle will be continuing to meet on Thursday Nights.
The first Thursday of every Month we will cover the delightful topic of Sensual Message, learning and practicing more each month. The next class in Sensual Message will be on Thursday February 5th.
The second Thursday of every month will be the Presentation of Celebrating Sensuality, with Kari Star. The next Presentation of Celebrating Sensuality will take place on Thursday February 11th.
Currently the third and fourth Thursdays have a variety of classes and presentations, that changes from month to month. One idea being considered is a Rite of Passage series similar to what Geno is offering with the Mens Circle.
On those special months when we have a fifth Thursday we present Meet the Temple Men. This is a chance for our Temple men to Shine, and for the Women of our Womens Circle to meet the Temple Men in an informal setting, and it will give each of our Temple Men a chance to tell about his own Healing Style and the special Ceremonies he offers like the Bath Ceremony.
Our Friday Night Sex Education For All Classes will continue to offer a variety of speakers on topics, with some special classes being repeated like Tantra Gateway and Erotic Feasting and The Religion of the Divine Pairs being repeated at intervals.
Our next Friday Night Sex Ed For All class is being held on Friday January 23rd and will feature Guest Speakers Selene, Celeborn, Calypso and Maia, all from Sensual Seattle. Selene, Celeborn and Calypso are a committed Trio, and Maia is their Student in Tantra Arts. We are fourtunate indeed to have such a wonderfull quartett of Guest Speakers and visitors for our Temple. They will be discussing "Integrated Tantra".
Friday January 30th rounds out the month with Tracy presenting Tantra Gateway.
