special ritual celebrations: for those seeking experience in celebrating the sacred through the ritual practices of traditional wicca.
The full moon is universally celebrated among Witches as the return of the Goddess. When the moon reaches its zenith a psychic reflex can be experienced. By using traditional rituals and dance, which are both powerful and sacred, we perform each month the ancient rites of participation mystique, the drawing down of the moon.
This monthly ritual celebration is reserved for those who have completed the 'Casting the Circle' workshop and who are seeking to join our regularly Coven Circle or start their own.
See workshop details for Casting the Circle.
nox
ritual:
invocations of night
ritual workshop: The objective of rite is to assist participants to enter an inner, nocturnal world of personal visions by applying learned skills in meditation, mantra, ceremony, dance and trance. By using potent ritual techniques developed in the workshop the participants undertake a personal NOX initiation.
The NOX
('night') ritual is a visionary and trance rite for the purpose of personal
discovery of Soul. The ritual workshop includes the use of techniques
in trance, dreams and sacred dance. Inspired by the eternal deserts
regions of Yalara surrounding Uluru (central Australia) and the western
Sahara of Egypt, the rite is a very personal journey of Initiation.
This is a special ritual circle which has been run in connection with
such pagan festivals as the annual 'Euphoria' gathering (held in Victoria),
as well as in private circles for small groups. It is intended as a
beginning in the life long journey in visioning hidden influences at
work in our lives.
For an in-depth coverage of workshop information see the NOX ritual.
when : Unfortunately the NOX meditation rite is currently only run as part of our Coven training programme - but there is a detailed discussion on the above link and the following discussion of its experience at the Euphoria festival. See Diary of a Witch.
