Calendar

Join us from your sacred space to celebrate this festival of fire, desire, fertility and joy! Juicy Life returns to land and body. The Fair Folk are dancing in the hills again. We will gather to raise some fertile power for our ailing world.

We will open and close together via zoom!   See link below. 
Opening May 2nd at 4pm-5pm
Closing May 3rd at 4pm-5pm

In these sessions you will hear from the Queen and King who have held their mantle for this past year. We will open sacred space, share poetry and offer guidance, recordings, and inspiration to do your magic at home, creating a web of fertile faery frolic across the land!

In the closing session we will announce the new Queen and King of May and the year to come! We will honor them in creative ways and close our ceremony together.

This Facebook event page will be the place to share our stories, photos and experiences of our time on the land.  We would love to see pics of your altars, your special tree (more on this to come), and yourselves in your best faery attire!

Processional music and chant  Here is a video of Julia and John from ReTribe sharing their beautiful music with us as they always do at Beltaine. There is an instrumental procession and a Beltaine chant here!

This weekend workshop is being postponed.  Stay tuned for an online class offer by RJ and Anastacia during this weekend, as well as a new date for the full workshop. 

The Magic of Three Sticks is a new workshop, open to everyone. It is part of our Old Faery Tradition series, substantially evolved from R J Stewart’s original classes on Three Sticks first taught in Britain and the USA in the 1990s.

Stick Magic is found in many folkloric traditions worldwide: our workshop, drawing partly on Scottish, Welsh, and European roots, includes many practical developments for contemporary use.

If you have done Three Sticks Magic in the past, or any of RJ’s faery events, or if the whole concept is new to you, there are many riches to be discovered in this workshop. The weekend program will include visionary meditations, connections to InnerWorld spiritual contacts, and a unique empowering consecration ritual for our sets of Three Sticks, both for new sets and for existing sets from previous rituals or events with RJ.

The Magic of Three Sticks attunes three short sticks to the Consciousness-Directions of Human, Faery, and Living Creature, through the enduring medium of hardened wood. Once the sticks are empowered, they steadily become magical tools that work with us for our ceremonies, dreams and visions, and meditations. The sticks can be used singly or together within the Threefold Alliance of Human, Faery, and Living Creature.

We will discover and practice ways of using the sticks for seership, magical pattern making, and enhancing Otherworldly communication.

Bring with you three plain undecorated sticks as long as your longest finger. New sticks must not have been used for any other magical or meditative work. They can be of any natural wood, ideally found rather than cut, and already dry and firm. A good choice is that of Oak Ash and Thorn, three of the primal trees in folkloric magical tradition, but any wood that you prefer is good.

Please join us for The Magic of Three Sticks!
