Nourishing Empowering Leadership

Pagan traditions vary from horizontal, consensus-based groups to covens with High Priestesses, but all of us struggle with the need to nurture leaders who can truly empower others. Leadership is not bossing, but setting direction, modeling fairness, mentoring and encouraging creativity in all participants. In this workshop, we will look at different forms of leadership, reflect on our own gifts and challenges, and support one another to step up to the next level of personal and social power.

Strong Roots and Wide Branches: Living Polytheist Traditions

The old ways are returning. Slumbering gods reawaken, gaining strength and gathering followers. But many of the traditions themselves are incomplete. In addition to religious regard for deities, historically most polytheistic cultures also included ancestor veneration, life cycle rituals, personal ethics, group mores, ways of living on and with the land and its spirits, ritual and spiritual artistic expression, and spirit and ritual technologies to best do these things. Let's discuss how we can build, unearth, rediscover, shape and create whole, integrated Polytheist paths.
