Bridget: A Celebration of the Triple Goddess of Forge, Flame, and Healing Springs
Auburn Theological Seminary Center for Multifaith Education, New York, February 2005
Meet Bridget, give thanks, ask a boon, offer praise, and rededicate yourself to Her. Carry Her light into your life and into the world.
"Witchual: A Spell"
Sacred Harvest Festival, August 2004; PantheaCon, February 2005
A spell to view the dark and light in ourselves and our communities, to recommit to Goddess, and to reclaim and honor stereotypes. Text by William Shakespeare, Victoria Slind-Flor and Macha. Homage to Steven Posch. Approach in solemn silence and follow the dark and twisted path. Dare to meet your inner Witch, incarnate and magnified three times. Dance with hags and partake of the Witches' magic brew -- if you dare! "'Tis time, 'tis time."
Praise Be Lady Liberty!
A collaborative ritual with Sam Webster and Vibra Willow, for
Pagan Pride Day in San Francisco, September 2002.
A procession and emplacement of a replica, by artist Fiona
Zimmer, of the Statue of Liberty that stands in New York Harbor.
Created to bring Bay Area and American Pagans together in harmony,
unity and celebration. This is the chant we used, by Vibra Willow:
We shall sing of the old gods,
For we know we are free.
We shall keep Her sacred flame alive.
Praise be Lady Liberty!
You can
hear
it on MP3.
