PaGaian Cosmology Lammas/Late Summer Meditation

This meditation was created as part of the whole Wheel of PaGaian Cosmology Meditations in 2015, which were released as a set of CDs, and are still available in that format, as well as digitally. Here now I offer this Lammas/Late Summer meditation freely. There are two parts: the first is a brief preparation (2:24mins) […]

Lammas/Imbolc Season Planet Earth 2026 C.E.

With the passing of Solstice Season our Planet enters into the waxing dark Seasons in the Southern Hemisphere and the waxing light Seasons in the Northern Hemisphere. These first of the transition Moments after Solstice are frequently named in Old European tradition as Lammas and Imbolc respectively. We as Earth cross the midpoint (the “cross-quarter”) […]

The Universe Story and Lammas

Below is an edited excerpt from Chapter 10 of A Poiesis of the Creative Cosmos: Celebrating Her within PaGaian Sacred Ceremony Glenys Livingstone Ph.D., (Girl God Books, 2023). The story of the universe may be described as “a story of majesty and beauty as well as of violence and disruption, a drama filled with both elegance […]

Summer Solstice Breath Meditation

This short breath meditation (3:33min) is traditionally the Centering process for the PaGaian Summer Solstice/Litha ceremony as it developed over decades in the sacred space of MoonCourt in the Blue Mountains Australia. The script for it is below the video link, and can also be found the Summer Solstice chapter in my book A Poiesis […]

PaGaian Poiesis: a Review by Therese Doherty

“I first read PaGaian Cosmology in 2016, and though it made quite an impression at the time, there were definitely aspects of it that I didn’t fully understand, or which were still a little bit too challenging to fully embrace. Returning to it now with greater understanding, however, I am grateful for the perspective it offers, for […]

Solstice @ EarthGaia  December 2025 C.E.

Earth enters the Season of Solstice at this time in Her orbit around our Mother Sun. It is one of two Solstices for the year, the other being in June. For the Southern Hemisphere December Solstice is the Summer fullness and peaking of the light, and the awesomeness of the turn /return to the dark part […]

Creating a Womb of Gaia altar

A Womb of Gaia altar may represent a Place, and a practice, where you may enter into Her Creativity, place yourself in Her Womb consciously – where there is never-ending Creativity. It is a Place, in which we are held, and may be held consciously: with your conscious participation in this Creativity. The link above […]

PaGaian Beltaine/High Spring Meditation

There are two parts to this meditation: it begins with the “Preparation” (1:56 mins), then the meditation (14:34 mins). Allow about 25 minutes of undisturbed time for this: that would include about 12 minutes for writing or quiet contemplating. You may like a little more time than this – for more writing at the end. […]

Beltaine/Samhain @ EarthGaia November 2025 C.E.

In our and Earth’s everyday sacred journey around Mother Sun, we move into the Seasonal Moment of Beltaine/Samhain – as these Seasons are named in many Old European traditions. It is the cross-quarter transition between Equinox and Solstice. In the Southern Hemisphere it is the transition into High Spring/Beltaine, towards the Summer Solstice, and in the […]
