Samhain/Bealtaine @ EarthGaia May 2026 C.E.

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

Packing it Up: Letting Go of a Phase of Creativity

The passing of this personal phase of creativity has not been timed with my biological clock, as in the ending of menstruation: that happened almost twenty years ago. This phase of creativity that is passing has occupied my life for about thirty years or more, and I understand it as a ‘Mother’ phase, the full […]

Equinox – Autumn/Spring @ EarthGaia March 2026 C.E.

The Seasonal Moment of Equinox @ EarthGaia as our planet may be named (see note below about the naming of our planet)[i], will occur March 20th at 14:46 UTC (that’s “Universal Time” as it is named – measured at Greenwich England). Equinox is a moment of balance of dark and light for our planet, when the […]

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 […]

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. […]
