And Caryn for a 2nd Harvest Season Workshop (I don't know if that will include the Welsh Mabon/Modron myth or not. Depends on how much information there is to cover.)

« on: August 03, 2009, 01:09:36 PM »Stemming from mythological workshops, I would particularly like to focus something on the lore of individual deities according to academic research and *reliable* scholarly texts, based on archaeological and anthropological findings.
I'm personally not a fan of a lot of the NewAgey books places like Barnes and Noble have to offer...and find that many of the "Celtic Studies" books found beneath that descriptor have shady references and are based on the hear-say of others who may or may not be qualified. Now, even those types of books have their place, and often reflect modern attitudes (kindof a sociological overview of modern pagan beliefs)...but I prefer reading original sources and what some people feel to be 'dry' material for my information. Such a workshop would be based upon this sort of information with references included.
This would also assist with the discussion of appropriate offerings to deities which can be added to ritual planning discussion, as mentioned by Caryn and Crystal. If there is a space available for a workshop in October, I could have one ready by then. (That's how far ahead I plan, btw.) I will repost later if necessary.
With regards to July and August, if there is space available, Ryn and I could definitely put together some Irish Mythological workshops.
Behold my long post of yikes.

?
I found part of my notes and know where I can find the rest. <sigh> This will be on Chinese herbal health/weight loss/ nature of food and the body humors.
Do you still want me to do it them or shall I sign up for another month?

« on: July 20, 2009, 10:23:33 PM »I have a suggestion for a workshop on Celtic Lore via Ashley and Tarren. Just a suggestion. I think they are a font of information.
Jack in the Green
A font of information, really? Lol!! Well, Ashley knows more than I do, but I'm sure we could come up with a workshop covering like the Book of Invasions, or we can do research if people are interested in anything else....Shall have to ask Ash if she's interested!! She loves lore especially.
(And pssst, its 'Taryn'.
No worries, people get it wrong all the time. I grew up being called Karen by most of my teachers.)Posted by: JackGreen

« on: July 14, 2009, 11:09:01 PM »I have never done a workshop before, but as long as I can find where I put my notes from the class I took on this the 9th will be fine. Give me a day or two to look through a box and my ever growing pile of papers...
