The Return of the Völva
A High Seat Ceremony in The High Summer
@Clophill Centre for Complementary Therapy
6th and 7th of July
Saturday and Sunday.
We are gathering for a two day journey of "Waking Dragons" at Clophill: this will be a weekend of story, singing, ceremony and journeys into the non-ordinary. We start at 10am on Saturday that will lead to a feast and a High Seat Ceremony in the evening.
The days will be done with the spirit of going on a quest together with plenty of companionship.
A weekend to come together and transform our emotions and turn them into gifts to the land and our communities.
The High Seat ceremony lies at the heart of the old Ancestral Heathen custom and will be between 18 - 20pm in the evening on the Saturday.
What to bring: your runes, gifts, food and drink - mead is traditional - but please alcohol is not for everyone, apple juice with cinnamon is an excellent blot elixir as well. Bring your drinking horns or vessels. PLEASE BRING YOUR DRUMS.
For the High Seat we will make a large altar with offerings around it, bring that which is sacred to you: photos, stones, skins, herbs: all the holy bundles.
To prepare a ceremonial High Seat for older women and to hear their oracular wisdom in ceremony is an enormous privilege and blessing.
The cost for the weekend is £95 and it runs from 10am Saturday and finishes after lunch 13:00 Sunday.
Sunday will be a day of integration, meditation, prayer and oath making to the Earth and our ancestors and Gods and Goddesses. We will also raise the rhythms and walk the seventh-fold labyrinth - the Dragon trail.
After the blot, the feasting....which will be a night to remember friends! :)
Hail the Day and Night!
This event is done in service to the good heart and all diversity is celebrated and enthusiastically welcomed.
