PaGaian Beltaine

Описание: As it was celebrated at MoonCourt Bru-na-BigTree Blue Mountains Australia, November 2009. The Poetry is based on Beltaine ceremony as it is developed and scripted in my book PaGaian Cosmology: available at my website https://pagaian.org. I acknowledge with gratitude the inspiration and work of Starhawk, Brian Swimme, Charlene Spretnak, Thomas Berry, Michael Dames, Sufi poets Iraqi and Jami, Mary Daly and Doreen Valiente, in the composing of the Poetry. Allurement as a name for a Cosmic power is that of mathematical cosmologist Brian Swimme (http://www.brianswimme.org) and some of the Poetry about the Universe and Desire is a direct quote from his series "The Powers of the Universe". More reflections on Beltaine/High Spring celebration may be found in Appendix F of PaGaian Cosmology: https://pagaian.org/book/appendix-f/, and also in the whole Chapter 8 of my 2023 book A Poiesis of the Creative Cosmos: Celebrating Her within PaGaian Sacred Ceremony. Note that in the video the elements Water,Fire, Earth and Air are called in the order according to our place on the Planet - Water is in the East, Fire in the North, Earth in the West and Air in the South.

The music is the soundtrack from "Coral Sea Dreaming" by Tania Rose http://www.taniarose.net/
