Programme for the Weekend:

SATURDAY

10am 11:00am: Greetings, introduction and opening ritual. (Cian MacFhiarais)
After an introductory greeting and an outline of the weekend a basic Wiccan ritual circle will be created by the Coven of the Triple Moon to ceremonially call the Goddess and God and the Elemental forces and to declare the intent of the weekend.

11:00am-1:00pm: Rites of Ecstasy: The Tree of Life (Chavah Aima)

(First Hour) The Tantra of Being: Meditation within the Sacred Tree of Life
Using traditional chants and imagery of the Qabalistic initiatory lineages, we balance the energy within every level of our being. By opening to receive, and blending with the vibratory forces of creation, we attain ecstatic union with our true spiritual essence.

(Second Hour) Birth of the Cosmos: Exploring the Spheres of the Tree of Life
From a vast and endless expression of love and union, currents of feminine and masculine energy weave heaven into earth. As the forces move from subtle essence into physical form, they create and flow into the holy Sephiroth, reservoirs of power accessible through the rites of the mystical traditions.
