What
To Be Open To:
|
*The
most comfortable clothing you can dream up. Big T's, sweats,
cashmere socks, or your grandmother's moo moo.
*If you like,….something special for your nite labyrinth
walk. Warm jacket and
scarf if weather is chilly.
*Favorite Music you would like to share is always welcome.
*To open your senses as your begin your journey here….pay
attention to your
dreams, daily syncronicity, people and animals which cross your
path.
Remain open to the abundant ways Spirit is 'coaching' you.
*Visiting a Book/Music store and trust your guidance as you scan
either the books or music areas. You will then select a special
music CD
for your journey, or perhaps a book of poems, or spiritual text.
Use your
selection as a 'gift from guidance' for yourself……it
will help you ground the
journey. Trust you are always guided to what is in your highest
good.
Bring your music or book to the Gathering to share with us.
What
is Essential:
*Bring something
which you hold sacred…photos, stones, childhood relic.
to grace our weekend altar.
*Bring something which symbolizes the ancient grandmother wisdom
that
dwells within you!
*A journal and pen……if you haven't started this…..use
the weeks prior to your
arrival to begin writing down your daily thoughts….just a
few words is fine.
*To be open to new experiences and a healthy sense of humor.
What
to Let Go Of:
*Cell Phone, pager, watches….time will be provided for you
to check your
'vital' outside messages.
*Forget your age, or any sense of limitation about yourself.
so you can be fully 'present' within our sacred circle each moment.

"By changing
the ways in which we move, dance and sing-we gain more access to Spirit.
This allows us to accept the gifts of our lineage and to carry forth
the new story. When we meet Grandmother Herself as the one who knows-the
Wise One, then her story comes alive as the break-open allows the unraveling
of the past. Only then can we accept the gifts Grandmother offers. It
is a choicepoint. We can enter her apprenticeship; connect and re-weave
the tapestry for our own time and place. Because she is one step removed
from Mother, Grandmother can embody the bridge to our ancestors."
