DEAD GOOD GUIDES programme of celebrant training Swarthmoor Hall, Ulverston, Cumbria LA12 0JQ

Are you interested in the art of ceremony and celebration? Do you welcome surprising challenges? Would you enjoy hands- on creativity and time for reflection in the Cumbrian landscape? If you are at a moment of transition in your life, or if you want to expand your personal practice, this Autumn School is an opportunity to examine the Hows and Whys of ceremony in a safe environment. Together we will investigate how both positive and negative life events can be distilled into myth and poetry and how we can create meaningful rituals to contain them. Sue Gill and Gilly Adams have been working together for many years and have a wealth of experience to share.

A veritable feast of poetic archetypes ….’                                                                                    Lucy Neal PLAYING FOR TIME, Oberon 2015
