It is a very rich course, with material that will last you for years … you can keep coming back to it, grazing, following your threads of interest and developing it with your own creativity … some do […]
Imbolc/Lammas Moment August 2016 C.E.
As Earth continues Her/our everyday sacred journey around Mother Sun, the Seasonal Moment of Imbolc/Lammas is next in the orbit: it depends on your Hemisphere as to which aspect of the Moment you experience.

June Solstice 2016 C.E. EarthGaia
It is the Season of Solstice – Earth’s tilt in relationship with Mother Sun, our Source of life and being, leans us to the furthest point, in both the South and the North: see Her there in your mind’s eye, as She orbits … The actual Moment of June Solstice 2016 @ EarthGaia is 10:44 UT […]
PaGaian Cosmology On-line Course
For those in the Southern Hemisphere of Earth-based tradition, the Wheel of the Year begins in the late Autumn (late April- early May) with the Seasonal Moment traditionally known as Samhain or more commonly as Halloween.

Newsletter October 2008, and re-published at Return to Mago blog as En-trancing Gaia’s Womb Through Seasonal Ceremony: Re-creating Her Sacred Site in 2012.

Samhain Ceremony and Cosmogenesis
A core inspiration for the processes of the Samhain/Deep Autumn seasonal rite as it has been done here at my place for over a decade, is Robin Morgan’s poem, “The Network of the Imaginary Mother“.[1] The whole poem helped me through a gateway into new language and perceptions some 34 years ago (1980), but the main […]
PaGaian Lammas – Celebrating an Autopoietic Cosmos
She Who receives all, transforms all – in every moment Lammas may be a Seasonal Moment for the recognition of the autopoietic quality of Cosmogenesis [1], the Larger Self whom we are –and the power each thing has to participate directly in the cosmos-creating endeavour” (Swimme and Berry The Universe Story p.75) : it is a powerful thing to […]
We are Sun, we are Food
