SERPENT INITIATION - Within the collective of temples and priestesses that have found their way to Ashland, we are honored to have quite a few serpents and practicing serpent priestesses.  Serpent initiation - having the opportunity to meet, touch, and commune with a living serpent - will be available throughout the weekend, if and when you choose.  This will be an opportunity to face and resolve conditioned fear responses and profound misunderstandings about the nature of serpents, and the particular aspect of feminine power that they embody. There will be no external compulsion, but if you feel compelled from within, this will be a powerful, experiential opportunity to connect in truth with the very ancient relationship between serpent and priestess.  

 

*SMALL GROUPS:  The convergence is held as a seamless, integrated journey into personally appropriate and potent intiations.  In respect for what it takes to truly integrate and make an experience yours, we have organized the flow so that you'll be in what is essentially an ongoing, coherent, ever deepening journey - receiving ceremony or transmissions, with time before and after in supported small groups for integration, reflection, and restoration. Each small group is held by an experienced priestess of the temple, who is committed to supporting you & the full integration of your experience as it unfolds.  In essence, you will have the more intimate support of a facilitated smaller group within the rich and larger field of the entire Convergence.
