Ancient Irish Sites – photos and story

God on the Run
GOD ON THE RUN By GlenysLivingstone Ph.D. This essay is an unedited paper as I presented it at the University of Western Sydney in June 1995. Hopefully some have come a little distance since then – I would write it differently now, and indeed I have, but it still seems to be useful as it […]

We drift towards Lammas in the Southern Hemisphere … after the Summer Solstice, the peaking of light, the fullness of being, there comes the falling apart: the rose, the flower, peaks in beauty, then she fades, falls apart … the petals drop, and the seed is exposed.

Three Candles Meditation
This meditation is mentioned in the Introduction to the book, PaGaian Cosmology, as being part of my daily practice: I describe it as a “layer of action” – taken to “nurse and create a context in which ‘She’ could grow”. The three candles with some associated objects remain on an altar. The candles may be […]
