Dirt Road Roots Pagan Way (events » community) Tuesday, November 25, 2008 - 12:00 PM 8 RSVPs Is now accepting Students. We will beginning a new round of classes starting in 2009 and are preparing our schedule of topics now. If you are interested in learning more, please read on...

Contact us for the next step.

What Dirt Road Roots is about:

Dirt Road Roots (DRR) was born as a creative vision to have larger circles and events of a teaching/spiritual nature. There are drum circles, larger rituals, and weekend intensives that are organized under this name. It originally came out of the need to provide a space for our Pagan Way students who needed to teach as part of their requirements.

Dirt Road Roots Pagan Way is the teaching group that is currently accepting students.

****************************************************************
We offer a Wicca-based study and worship group. We teach through discussions, questions, and practice. You can contribute by being here in good faith and with an open heart and mind. In this way we all learn together.

We stress commitment and hard work as well as fun. There is a lot of hands on work to be done and a bit of homework. We meet at least twice a month, have access to over 200 acres of land, and run an annual mini-festival/weekend intensive.

Below is a list of topics that will be covered. Reading this will give you an idea of what DRR has to offer you. DRR practices Wicca in a positive, nature oriented way with foundations in the Gardnerian Tradition. If you are interested, you can contact me and I will send you information.

Books and Magazine Listings

There will be a comprehensive book and magazine list available at the first class.

We will have plenty of time to go over a variety of topics mentioned above. The potential student is encouraged to be excited about taking the first “step into the adventure” of what Dirt Road Roots can offer. Every soul has special gifts to contribute and in Wicca we strive to use those gifts to praise the God & Goddess.

As the HPS and HP of DRR we feel we learn as much, if not more, from our students as they learn from us. We all have more to learn and there is an energy out their larger than us. We are merely trying to help others connect with that energy through a path that nourishes both the feminine and the masculine within the self as well as within others; a path that embraces nature’s cycles.

Blessings
Christine & Orien
