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) […]
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 […]
Crone Quality/Aspect of Great Goddess
This is an edited recording of a radio program, from a twelve part series named Re-membering the Great Mother, authored and put to air by Glenys Livingstone in 1994, for 2BLU-FM 89.1, community radio in the Blue Mountains, Australia: Gundungurra and Darug country. I created this radio series after a personal shattering and underworld journey, […]
A Lammas Ceremony
This video (16:45 minutes) was created with a collage of footage and photos from the recent Lammas ceremony I facilitated at my place in Wakka Wakka Country, South East Queensland Australia, and from previous Lammas ceremonies in MoonCourt over the decades. The script for this Lammas/Late Summer ceremony is offered in Chapter 10 of my […]
Her Holy Integral Blackness
Black is the chosen colour for PaGaian Lammas ceremonial decoration, for this Season when the dark part of the cycle is just new. It is for the purpose of identification with the Dark, falling in love with this place which is native to all being, becoming re-acquainted perhaps with this darkness in which we – […]
She Feeds the World with Her own Body
She so loves the world that She gives Her own Body daily: for the life of the world. The Gospel of Dea since the beginning of time. Note the present tense of “loves” and “gives”. It is so in every moment, not just some past heroic deed done by a “son” sent by a Deity […]
Harvest Dance for Lammas Ceremony
We may dance in celebration of our harvests – the reapings of our lives: and dance in trust of her Creative Dark. The dance that may be done is based on one that I learnt from Jean Houston, and I name it the “Harvest Dance”: Before we begin the dance, the celebrant traditionally asks: “Can […]
We Live in a Sentient Cosmos
We live in a sentient Cosmos. That is the premise of much of the Seasonal ceremonial celebration as it is done in the PaGaian tradition, the ceremonial marking of Her creative cycle: that is, with the understanding that ceremony is a conversation, a relationship with One who hears, as we listen also. This Cosmos is […]
Lammas Breath Meditation
… from PaGaian Cosmology Lammas/Late Summer ceremony: “Breathe this breath that is yours, as if it were your first … do you remember that it was so? Breathe this breath that is yours, as if it were your last … do you remember that it will be so? Breathe it now, this breath that is […]
As we turn towards the Dark: the Season of Lammas
After the peaking of Summer Solstice, there is the turn into the dark. Traditionally in Pagan circles, where this Seasonal transition is celebrated as “Lughnasad”, a straw man is burned, representing the passing of the fulfillment of Summer: all is given over, the harvest of the light part of the cycle is set, as the […]
