The Threads That Bind Us

Gerald Gardner's Book of Shadows delineates eight different methods of creating magick. The fifth path, "The Dance, and kindred practices" is about using movement of the body to create sacred art and shift consciousness. This covers everything from tribal and shamanic dancing, to ecstatic dance and possession trances, to folk dancing and circle dancing, to performance art and ritual, to a personal celebration of the Gods and Goddesses within, and it even includes other practices of sacred movement, such as yoga and Tai Chi. Only the most basic of these practices could be covered in this short video, with a special focus on Dance as utilized by Wiccans and Pagans.   For more information see the Web Store Workshops page or http://sablearadia.webs.com
