Enlivening an Ancient Pagan Religion
I will be presenting a brief overview of the ancient mystery cult of the Eleusinian Mysteries, which I have been practicing since 1995. Starting with the well-known story of Demeter's loss of her beloved daughter to Hades, we learn that is is much more than a seasonal metaphor. Thanks to 2000 years of continuous practice and the broken vows of many converted christians, we have a wealth of material to utilize when adapting this tradition to contemporary religious practice.
The Grove of Gaia Fest will be held on Saturday, April 30, 2011 at the North Hills Unitarian Universalist Church of Pittsburgh. Further information can be obtained at Grove of Gaia's website at groveofgaia.moonfruit.com
Oh...and I will also be offering individual Tarot consultations during the event!
