Glennie Kindred Sacred Earth Celebrations

Annotation

Sacred Earth Celebrations is a user-friendly source book for everyone wishing to celebrate and honour the changing rhythms and seasons of Earth and her cycles. Exploring each of the eight Celtic festivals, Sacred Earth Celebrations looks at how they were celebrated and understood in the past, the underlying changing energy of the Earth and ways we may use this energy to create meaningful celebrations for today. This book does not attempt to follow or recreate the past, but encourages us, whether celebrating on our own or with family and friends, to follow our own inspired interpretations of each festival, to touch the sacred, share and participate in the power of nature, express our feelings and find ways to focus on spiritual regeneration and healing. Subjects include: understanding the five elements, the laws of manifestation, the rhythms of the Moon, Earth energies and sacred landscape, inner journeying, meditation, dance, song, masks, the healing energies of trees and herbs, celebrations for children, craft related activities, garden and land projects, labyrinths, building a sweat lodge, creating sacred space both inside and outside and many other creative activities to connect to the moment, to the Earth and to each other.
