The Covenstead Residential | Easter Long Weekend | NSW Aust

The Covenstead Residential: the Eleusinian Mysteries
Thurs 21st - Mon 25th April 2011 [Easter/Mabon long weekend]

At this residential we will explore the Eleusinian Mysteries and the
'myth' of Persephone and Demeter. This ageless and powerful story
isn't really a myth, because is lives in the heart of every mother and
daughter. We will explore our own journey of darkness away from Mother
and our returning emergence, rebirthed as women. This is such rich
territory that we need a 4 day residential to explore it well!
The Covenstead means 'home of the wytch' and on this weekend we will
feel at home together in a non-hierarchical circle of womyn of varying
levels of experience and varying spiritual interests. Together we will
explore the Mysteries. We will take time to ask questions, to wonder,
to sometimes understand and to sometimes honour the Mystery. We will
learn and share our wisdoms, exploring spellcraft and ritual ... we
will dance and sing and create beauty together!

It is time to put the books down ... it is time to start experiencing
real magic!

On this weekend we will:
• share our mother and daughter stories
• learn about the Eleusinian Mysteries and what these ancient rites
hold for us today
• immerse ourselves in the myth of Persphone and Demeter
• learn and practice spell crafting
• share and practice divination techniques
• create magickal talismans
• learn about how to work with the moon for personal empowerment and
magick
• learn and share simple but powerful chants and dances
• create and share beautiful rituals
"What a weekend!!! My only complaint is that it was Sunday afternoon
too soon!! I'm so excited about the upcoming 4 day retreat. I have
come away from this Covenstead retreat with a greater sense of self
and my pockets full of new friends.. or more accurately, old friends I
hadn't met 'til then. There were so many wonderful moments to recall"
Gai-Louise, NSW

"Thanks for organizing such a wonderful weekend of teaching & sharing,
your wise ways helped all the women present to let go of expectations,
inhibitions and helped us to cross the threshold into the wild world
of Wytchyness" Michelle, NSW

"I'm so impressed by how you manage to include all levels in your
ritual ... also the warmth, power, beauty and elegance of the circle
that you create The way you managed to engage us so quickly in song
and dance was very inspired." Josephine, NSW

"Thankyou so much for an amazing weekend! Wow it has had a massive
impact on me ... I would love to come to the Easter retreat next year
and will put that in my calender...YAY!" Louise NSW

I found this photo by going to google images and putting in Cathedral + fire. It is of the Grace Cathedral in Topeka burning and the image is quite beautiful. It may give you something to go on in tracking down a painting of the same event. Blessed Be, Vicki
