The Morrigan's Call 2015: A Retreat Dedicated to the Great Queen
The Morrigan's Call: A Retreat Dedicated to the Great Queen
June 12th-14th 2015
Do you hear her voice whispering to you on the wind? Do you feel her presence in the shadows calling to you? Can you feel her warrior spirit stir within you? The Morrigan is calling to us once again, will you answer the Call?
Join us for a weekend of ritual work, devotional practices, kinship and workshops dedicated to the Morrigan, the Irish goddess of sovereignty and battle. Learn who this dynamic goddess is, her history, myths and how to embrace her transformation in your life. Explore the concepts of claiming personal sovereignty, and how to approach a warrior path in modern times. Join us in creating a temple dedicated to the Great Queen and other members of the Tuatha De Dannan.
This event is open to both men and women. Our gathering will take place at Camp Cedarcrest. (http://www.campingct.org/) Located in Orange, Connecticut, just off of Route 15 and Route 34, Cedarcrest provides a beautiful and relaxing environment with full amenities including a bathhouse with hot showers, and heated cabins with electric, and a stunning amphitheater for ritual work and meditation!
