My name is Glenys Livingstone, and I am the author of PaGaian Cosmology: Re-inventing Earth-based Goddess Religion (Lincoln NE: iUniverse 2005)

For over two decades I have been teaching and celebrating Earth's sacred annual cycle, and for each Seasonal Moment in the preparation classes there has been an experiential meditation evolving - that I have shared with my students: it is a potent creative process, an eco-psychology, when the whole cycle is tasted … it is a geo-therapy (thanks to cosmologist Brian Swimme and geologian Thomas Berry for that term) that can heal and whole and create. Participating in the sacred process of the Wheel of the Year, celebrating GaiaEarth's creativity is a Poiesis - the making of a world, and these meditations have enabled a taste and experience of this magical process for participants, including myself.

It is time now to share it further, as I retire from main celebrant role - especially for those around the globe who would like to have participated in the PaGaian seasonal ceremonies, over the years, and for those who know and love the book PaGaian Cosmology, and for those who would like to taste it now - and in one's own space, and perhaps with others. My creation of the CDs is for any who desire, and perhaps already have, deep conversation with the Mother, our sacred place of being - the meditations will meet a person at whatever self appointed place. In these times of deep change, a return to sacred ceremony seems more necessary - medicinal, even urgent - for the wholing of each and all, for the remembering of who and where we are: these meditations maybe be useful for individual devotional practice or with a group, over the period of a year or whenever you wish.

For the past year or more I have been working with the wonderful sound engineer and musician Nick Alias, and conspirator Yia Alias, to produce the soundtracks for the eight seasonal moments, with an introduction and a concluding meditation. I also contacted artists whose music I wanted to use, and asked permission: I paid royalties to some, while others gave it freely. I carefully created a booklet to go with the CD set: it includes information about props needed for each meditation, time required, links, notes, images and acknowledgments. I was able to have video footage taken of a recent seasonal ceremony setting (Autumn Equinox) in the PaGaian ceremonial space, MoonCourt, along with some happy and willing apprentices and participants, for the promotion of this project.

Now I need to raise the funds to produce the CDs - a set of three, and the booklet that goes with the set. Can you help? 

I offer you some rewards for your participation and enjoyment … Her holy desire is felt reciprocally throughout the Cosmos, and may be consciously so! Whether or not you are able to contribute with dollars, you may like to share the video and project link with your networks. Thank you so much.
