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 […]

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 […]

Equinox – Spring/Autumn @ Earth-Gaia September 2025 C.E.

Our Planet Earth – as She is most often named, comes to one of Her annual points of balance in Her orbit around Sun on September 22nd 18:19 UTC (that’s September 23rd 4:19 East Coast Australia, where I am). Other global times can be found at archaeoastronomy.com. This is one of two points of balance in […]

The Whole Universe in Every Mouthful: Daily Communion

I first became conscious of this truth by way of cosmologist/physicist Brian Thomas Swimme. He noted this connectivity particularly in video two of his old and germinal series Canticle to the Cosmos; and in part of that teaching, he held up an apple as an example of the whole universe involved in one bite of it […]

Imbolc/Lammas @ EarthGaia August 2025 C.E.

Our Planet enters into the waxing light Seasons in the Southern Hemisphere and the waxing dark Seasons in the Northern Hemisphere. These first transition Seasonal Moments after Solstice are frequently named in Old European tradition as Imbolc and Lammas respectively. We as Earth cross the midpoint (the “cross-quarter”) between Solstice and Equinox on August 7th […]

Samhain/Beltaine @ EarthGaia May 2025 C.E.

At this time of our annual orbit around Mother Sun, Earth’s tilt moves us into the Seasons of Samhain and Beltaine – as they are commonly named in Old European traditions. In the Southern Hemisphere, the dark part of the day continues to grow and dominate, and in the Northern Hemisphere the light part of […]
