Sacred Cycles III: The Way of the Earthbound Witch  
 

Tending a plant from seed to harvest, then offering the Earth back Her ancestors through their ashes, is an olden practice. It brings our bodies back into communion with the dirt we stand upon and heals us mind, body and soul.
Explore the nature of harvest, ways in which we honor, process and become a part of the cycle. In doing so, we come full circle in the primal examination of our bodies and their relationship to Mother Earth.

We Are Gaia Walking

GatheirngSC2

The head of the American Academy of Religion calls climate change the greatest moral crisis of our times. The Chief of the US Navy's Pacific Command has said it is the single greatest security threat facing us. Sometimes the problem seems so overwhelming and so impossible to stop that we turn our attention to more manageable things. But the devastating results that are forecast don't have to be our future. This class will explore the dynamics of climate change, the potential danger of it, and the special contributions that Paganisms and Earth-based spiritualities have to offer in the search for solutions.

The Salem Witches: Fact and Fiction  

The more we learn about The Witch Hunts of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, the more we can appreciate our Pagan heritage and the events early American witches lived through. Explore the events leading to the Salem Witch Trials and then reflect on some "fictionalized" texts representing those events (literature, film, television, etc.). From the wild depictions of Tituba to the dreadful outcomes for those accused, many tourist attractions, movies, and television shows misrepresent the history of the Salem Witch Trials. Separate the facts from the myths surrounding this iconic moment in American religious history.
