Dances with Dragons Climax DC-Area Creation Spirituality Gathering
R/Evolutionary Theologian Matthew Fox keynotes, teaches at weekend of leading-edge spiritual experience, learning, growth and Cosmic Celebration.
All the magic, mystery and mythic power of dragons will arise as a dynamic crowd of healers, artists, community-builders, mystics, activists, and seekers evoke their inner fire in "Awakening Imagination for Transformation: A Gathering of Creation Spirituality Communities," scheduled July 27-29 at the Unitarian Universalist Church of Rockville in Rockville, Maryland. Hosted by Evolve Chesapeake and Creation Spirituality Communities, the radically inclusive weekend features a keynote by the (r)evolutionary theologian and author Matthew Fox, Ph.D., along with workshops on community-building, spiritual activism, art as meditation and body prayer. Evoking archetypal images of dragons through art and experiential workshops, the weekend offers an opportunity to reach beyond the "either/or" of the reptilian brain to dance in an inclusive "both/and" perspective, embracing diversity and interconnectedness to achieve global healing.
