* NEW* Men's Saging Ritual - A Rite of Passage to Elderhood Thursday 1 PM
There are three major phases of life that are clearly felt by many men. These correspond to some degree to the Saturn cycle. The first Saturn return occurs at 29 1/3 years marking the transition from youth to mature adulthood. The second Saturn return comes at age 58 2/3. By this age the momentum of activity has slowed down and many men find themselves shifting into a consciousness of the approaching end of life and a corresponding re-evaluation of priorities. This is a time when a conscious decision can be made to pursue the role of Sage in the community. This ritual is intended to initiate, bless, honor and affirm the intentions of men moving into the place of the Sage. Men who already consider themselves as Sages or
Elders and those who want to be initiated as Sages are invited to attend this ritual. There will be a discussion in preparation for the ritual. Please bring chairs.
Croning Ritual (Fourth annual at DragonFest): 1 PM
The Crones of DragonFest invite any woman who considers herself to be a Crone to participate in this ritual, whether or not you have had a Croning ritual at another time and place. We would like to honor you at this important time of your life.
If at all possible, please attend the Workshop for Crones if you plan to take part in this ritual. If you are unable to come to the Workshop but would still like to participate in the ritual, please talk with one of us at Crones' Attic, our booth on Merchants' RowStatistics: Posted by Joseph — Tue Jul 06, 2010 11:35 am
