WINTER MYSTERIES

Saturday Intensive December 3.
The beginning of winter has always been a time for a deeper pondering of the sacred interior mysteries. It is when we are going into the womb of darkness to prepare for the rebirth of light. We are in deep need of balancing our outer life of feasting and gifting with an inner life of soul preparation and spiritual communion. We will explore the Celtic traditions of Old Europe and of esoteric Christianity and close with a special ceremony to ready ourselves for the Holy Days and Nights of Winter Solstice.
Sat., Dec. 3, 10:00 5:00. $90 Open to all. Elective.
PAST LIFE HEALING &
THE ART OF SPIRITUAL COUNSELING

11 Week Healing Class Starts Mon. Eve. Jan 2.
Often in the course of our healing journey we become aware of patterns or influences that are particularly difficult to work with, our “Stuff”. Such influences could be from any time in this life or from the transpersonal realm beyond this life. Past Life Healing is a highly effective process for reconnecting with the sources of such material so we can bring it into the light of consciousness and free ourselves from tyrannies of the past. This is an advanced class and at least one other class with Ron is required.
Mon. eve, 7 to 9:30, Jan. 2 to March 12.
May pay $30 per week, total fee $330 or $300 if paid at first class. Required
SPIRITUAL FOUNDATIONS I
Claiming Our Shamanic Legacy

11 Week consciousness Growth Class Beginning Wed. Eve. Jan 4.
Shamans were humanities first priests, and priestesses. They were deeply consciousness of the spiritual in nature and the underlying matrix of being. To preserve our planet, to evolve to the next level of humanness, we need to regain some of this sensitivity. We will do so through lecture, discussion, ritual, sacred sound, visioning, mask making, totem building, and more. This class will deepen your spiritual roots and extend your spiritual wings. It is the beginning of a path of initiation as we prepare ourselves for the next evolution in human consciousness. Open to all.

THE ANIMAL POWERS
OF YOUR TOTEM

Saturday Intensive January 28.
Primordial peoples have always understood that the beings of the animal dominion are our teachers, our guides, our ancestors, and even our protectors. In this highly experiential intensive we will explore the animal nature of our major energy centers (chakras). Then through a series of exercises you will meet the unique powers within each of your centers, building your personal totem. This always provides fascinating insight into our individual “nature” that leads to a deeper self-knowing and a stronger connection with the earth and her rhythms.

THE LIGHT IN THE DARK NIGHT: HEALING DEPRESSION

Saturday Intensive, Feb 18
Depression occurs when the drains on our life-force are so great that we lose the ability to restore ourselves. We can then find ourselves in an ever descending spiral into darkness and hopelessness. As aware, knowledgeable, and compassionate care givers, we can be of help. Bringing light into the darkness and assisting the soul on its journey is a sacred task that goes beyond the realm of secular psychology. We will learn to enter the higher realms of being so that we can access and channel powerful yet refined flows of energy that can be of assistance to those struggling with depression.
Sat. Feb. 18, 10:00 5:00. $90. Open to all. Required for certification.
THE QUEST FOR
THE HEALING JESUS

One-Day Intensive Saturday, March 17
On a journey into the wonder and the mystery of the miracles we will seek to encounter the most celebrated healer in history. Who is this person, really, that we read about in the scriptures? What can we know about him with any certainty? How did he do all those things he did? What did he mean when he said, “Greater works than these shall you do”? We will walk a mile with him, learn a few things the church doesn’t want to talk about, and try not to get too serious about it all.
Saturday, March 17. 10:00-5:00. $90. Open to all. Required for ordination.
