Kinship with Nature - Working with the Fire Elementals

The fire spirits, also known as salamanders in folklore tradition, are the oldest of the elementals and therefore their consciousness is the most developed. They are, above all, beings of transformation, and they know the sacred pathway from death and decay to rebirth intimately. Fire is the gateway to the spiritual world - a doorway into the supersensible realms and we stand in front of it with reverence, which is why acts of ritual devotion commence with the kindling of a flame.

Come and join us for the last in this series.

Stay tuned for the next series - there is a total of three 4-part series.

Register for this event at Majestic Hudson.

THIS EVENT IS CANCELLED BUT IS NOW INCLUDED IN THE JULY 15 WORKSHOP AT MY HOUSE

Kinship with Nature - Working with the Air Elemental

“The air spirits, also known as sylphs in folklore, live in the airy element of the ether and they become enchanted into all forms of gas in the earthly realm. The sylphs are also the light bearers in the etheric body of our planet. The sylphs convey the light ether through the element of air and bring it to bear upon the ripening processes of nature. The sylphs are sensitive to the alignments of the planets and they are highly receptive to the information radiating in from the sun.” Susan Raven

From the weather to creatures that fly to our very breath, air is a very powerful element.

Come join me in this third of the Elements of Nature Series. Register at https://majestichudson.com.

Kinship with Nature - Working with the Water Elemental

“ The water spirits or undines,, as they are called in folklore, exist in the flowing, moist and watery elements on Earth. In spiritual science, they are identified as the world chemists. They are responsible for the chemical ether within the totality of Earth's etheric body, without them, there would be no transformation of substances. The chemical ether can be regarded as the life force behind the coalescing and dissolving of the moist element on Earth.” Susan Raven

Water is the flow of consciousness on the planet. It carries memories, reacts to emotions and permeates all life. Working with water elemental is magical and brings forth soul memories from long ago.

Come join me for the second in the Elements of Nature Series. Each workshop stands alone so don’t worry if you missed the Working with the Earth Elemental. There will be make-up workshops throughout the year. Go to May 7 of the calendar section of https://majestichudson.com to register.
