This free online workshop, hosted by Jude Murray and Richard Harding, will lead us further into our gentle exploration of death and dying. Each connected -but standalone- workshop falls on, or around one of the eight Celtic Quarter and Cross Quarter Festivals.
 
The Vernal, or Spring Equinox is the festival in the Celtic Calendar, which signifies the beginning of Spring, the burgeoning fertility of the Earth and the joy of new life. It often falls around the time of Easter and its themes of resurrection but , depending on the times of the full moon, Easter may be later. At the Equinoxes, day and night are in perfect balance, and so we look to where we can create, or need balance in our lives. We celebrate the certainty of life arising out of death.
 
We will share ritual space to safely facilitate discussions and meditations around the theme of death: feelings, ideas, cultural associations, fears, mythologies, concerns and questions. In the last workshop we introduced the second of the Nine Contemplations of Atisha as taught by Joan Halifax. In this workshop we will explore the third of the Nine Contemplations - That Death Will Come Whether You Are Prepared or Not. We will weave this theme through meditation, ritual, poetry and discussion.
 
Jude and Richard both have extensive experience of working with people and nature in and through the process of dying and beyond. Jude is an inititated Druid, lay minister, celebrant and ritual leader, embodiment facilitator, yogini and hospital chaplain. Richard is a healer, ritual space maker, paramedic practitioner, yogi, forest gardener and plant alchemist.
