pentacat@yahoo.comHoly Shit: Thursday 7 PM
Join us in this ritual to honor Tlazeteotl, Filth Eater, who receives our woes and transgressions and purifies them with the holy blood of birth. Tlazeteotl is an ancient Meso-American goddess who consumes, forgives, and transforms all offense into new life through her own birth sacrifice.
Aztec lore decrees that one may call on her only once, or risk terrible wrath and punishment, but for those who approach with pure intention and genuine spirit, she provides cleansing, holiness , and peace. Please join us for this deeply personal ritual honoring one of the most esoteric and revered goddesses of the new world.
Friday
Sacred Massage with Dancing Otter: Friday 1 PM
Safe, sacred, skyclad. Bring your favorite: oil ( What scent is in your bottle?) and round cover. This is two hours of comforting, relaxing Laying On Of Hands. Several small groups, each working on one person at a time. Each of us will receive about 10 minutes of blissful attention.
This ritual has a Skyclad option and not appropriate for teens & children
Multiple Drawing Down: Main Ritual Meadow – 5:30 PM onward
Rated (PG) for possible strong emotional content.
One of the lasting traditions of Dragonfest is the multiple drawing down. Every year it is a little bit different and a little bit the same. From time to time, each of us needs to be reminded that the Gods/Goddesses are at work in our lives, and that the answer to the question we have been asking or ignoring is still the same even though it comes from an unexpected source. Come and partake of one of the great mysteries and join us for a potentially life-changing experience. Presented by people too numerous to mention. Please note that this year we have
changed the timing a little bit to allow more people to have the opportunity to experience the beauty and magic of the divine.
