There has never been an approach to family spirituality that really and truly put family above anything else. Lydia's workshop was so intriguing and packed full of practical information.. She really engaged everyone with exercises for the whole family and created a fantastic presentation that all our friends still talk about.

Pagan Spirit Gathering 2009

Old Traditions New Beginnings

June13th through June 21st

Lydia is scheduled to appear and information will be forth coming regarding what presentations she will be giving.

Sacred Harvest Festival - Living the Wheel

Mirth and Reverence in Everyday Life

August 8th through August 16th

Lydia is tentatively scheduled to present her famous Candy Ritual (A fun, learning experience created to give Family Covens an opportunity to explore how ritual can be children inclusive and still have significant spiritual meaning. Family Covens are encouraged to attend together and children must be accompanied by an adult. - Oh yea, and there is free candy!

She will present Family Coven? (A seminar about the history and creation of the idea, Family Coven, by the person who coined the term).

Lydia will also present Family Coven: Creating Magic at Home (Parts I and II) (A hands on seminar where Family Covens with or without children, are invited to learn how to begin to create a strong spiritual bond within the confines of their own home. This is an opportunity to take a look into the forthcoming book: Family Coven: Creating Magic at Home).

She will present Sacred Geometry: A Physical Demonstration (An active seminar that allows the author to indulge in one of her addictions - Sacred Geometry. With the help of attendees, she will create a large, to scale, mathematically precise squared circle with a pentagram super imposed upon it. This sacred display will then be available for attendees to sit within experiencing the energetic difference Sacred Geometry can make and meditate. During this active and fun seminar, attendees will learn much about the spiritual significances of many shapes and symbols in Wicca and Neo-Paganism.)

She will also present Mother Priestess, Father Priest (An active seminar open to all adult partners of any make up or orientation who have children or who simply want to work on strengthening the relationship they have. This is not a seminar that is appropriate for children as the Great Rite is discussed in detail.).

Take advantage of Lydia's long and successful history in tarot reading and medium working to benefit Sacred Harvest Festival and Harmony Tribe by signing up to have a private consultation.
