If you are going to Dark Odyessy 3/21 in DC and either are gender queer or are GQ friendly then come to
the Gender Queer mixer before dinner. And on Friday I will be hosting a Ostara ritual to celebrate the spring equinox. Hope to see you there!

Queer and GenderQueer Mixer

Calling all dykes, fags, queers, FtMs, MtFs, trannies, crossdressers, and
genderqueer peeps: join us for refreshments, schmoozing and cruising. For
those going to the Banquet, we¹ll head there together. For others, this is a
chance to get a group together to eat dinner. People who identify as queer
or gender variant (or both) as well as partners and supporters are welcome.

Friday
8:00-8:30 pm € Hall of Battles
Ostara Pagan Ritual

The Spring Equinox brings a time of balance. The Sun God has overtaken the
darkness and day and night are of equal lengths. The Goddess, our Earth
Mother, awakens from Her long slumber to replenish the Earth. We see new
Life rising from the cold ground. The Horned God has grown weak from the
Winter and at this time dies in order to return to the healing Earth. From
His "death,² He is reborn as the Green Man. He has shed his antlers and fur
for green leaves and vines. He is young still, but as the days grow longer
he gains strength. He is a God of fertility, to aid our Goddess in the
growing of our fields and livestock.

This Wednesday Sandbox gathering we celebrate Robin's birthday Sandbox style by doing desert on her. After dinner Robin will lay on a table and be covered with desert topings, fruit, cream and chocolate then who ever wants to can eat desert off her. A sensuous and yummy experience. (The shower is available after for Robin to clean up)

If you want to celebrate your birthday or some other special event this way just let me know and we can arrange it! You chose how much clothing to wear (suit suit or birthday suit are suggested attire and what kind of deserts you want putting on you).

The desert begins after dinner at 8pm.  I invite you to join us, though as always what ever choice you make you will be honored in.

I really en-joyed Chapel on Sunday with the talk on forgiveness.

I did a meditation that morning before Chapel where I talked to
different parts of my personality (like voice dialog for those of you
who do that but in my head rather than out loud). I invited my higher
self to be there and my need for approval, my shame, my guilt, my
procrastination, my avoidance, my not good enough, my chorus of
judgments and my fear all to be there. Some of these characters were
pretty dirty - they have been working hard for over 40 years! For each
one in turn I accepted, approved, loved and forgave and they did the
same for me. I felt grateful for all the hard work each of them did for
me - and I know that they only had my best intentions at heart - it is
just that now I don't need them to work in that way - they can retire -
or only be available to give me messages when I need them. So when the
talk was on forgiveness at Chapel I felt the Universe was giving me a
message on forgiving myself more often. Thank you everyone!

Then I drew a Louise Hay You Can Heal Yourself card Monday morning and
it talked about forgiveness too! Ok I get the message!

Do you want to open new pathways for our relationship with sex? Do you want to be freed from constraints, misunderstandings and wounds? Do you want to let go of feelings we have about sex that limit, constrict, and oppress us? Then come to this workshop! We will look deeply at who we are and how the highest aspirations of our soul can be supported and nurtured by sex, rather than subverted by the constant anxiety and quest for sex that is the product of our culture. Looking closely at our own sexual "story" and the ways our beliefs have limited and constricted us in our relationship with sex, we empower ourselves to use sex as an expression of our highest values and aspirations. Plus any sex that you have after this workshop you will enjoy so much more!

This event will be on 3/26/08. More on Wednesday Sandbox Gatherings
