“Lady of Avalon”, by Caroline Lir
The Second Spiral is taught by Priestess of Avalon Patricia Sutherland, with the support of Kathy Jones.
Spiral Two of the Priestess/Priest of Avalon Training is open to those who have successfully completed Spiral One. Over eight weekends you learn the practical skills of a Priest/ess of the Goddess and of Avalon and explore your role as Goddess ceremonialist, Goddess Temple Priestess/Melissa, enabler, visionary, journeyer and spiritual friend.
The path of becoming a Priest/ess in this Avalonian tradition is a path of devotion and service to Goddess, as She expresses Herself through the cycle of the seasons of Her nature within the natural landscape, in the everyday world, in myth and in present day revelations. On this training our devotion is particularly focused on Bridannia, Goddess of the whole of Brigit’s Isles, and on the Lady of Avalon, Goddess of the Isle of Avalon, and we need to know and experience who She is and what that devotion means.
In this teaching the role of the Priestess or Priest is a public role, rather than a private dream. Our priestess work is to bring Goddess back into the world, to help Her to become visible through us and all that we are and can offer in service to Her. We bring our skills to the great work of creating, supporting and developing new Goddess Events, Communities and Temples in our homelands.
During the Second Spiral we invite you to visit the Oracle of the Lady of Avalon offered in each season at Goddess House to receive further guidance on your path to becoming a Priestess/Priest of Avalon
As part of your training you are encouraged to Priestess in seasonal ceremonies for the Glastonbury Goddess Temple and to extend and improve your abilities to priestess. You learn how to Melissa in the Glastonbury Goddess Temple, serving the many visitors who come to the Temple. As part of Spiral Two homework, students Melissa in the Temple for 8 hours or more in your own time.
The Second Spiral culminates in a special Self-Initiation Ceremony as a Priestess or Priest of the Goddess, which includes walking the Glastonbury Tor Labrynth. For this you need to be physically fit.
Students will be given a copy of Kathy’s book, Motherworld.
