Kim Duckett, Ph. D., Pr. and Barb Lutz, "Tribas", Shamanic Ritual Artist Upcoming Workshops and Intensives ~*~Women Only Please~*~ Women's Spirituality: An Experiential Herstory ***Saturday July 17, 2010** 9 am - 5:00 pm Location: The Spirit House, Greensboro Fee: $75.00 Women, have you been asking the questions… What is Women’s and Goddess Spirituality? How can I learn more as I begin or continue my own journey as a Womoon of Spirit? If so, come explore these questions and more with Kim Duckett and Barb Lutz, teachers of the Wheel of the Year as a Spiritual Psychology for women. In this one day intensive, learn more about the herstory of the women’s and Goddess spirituality movements, from ancient times to the present. Videos and a slide show of the authors and books that are the foundational texts of these movements will be offered, as well as information on “Circle” and Circle culture which is also the basis of women’s groups and communities. As always, there will be altars and rituals and the shamanic experiential activities these two are known for, to ground this material and also to satisfy what it is that draws us together in Circle in the first place, i.e. time to commune with the Divine, to resource and renew in these Times. If you are interested in the upcoming Women’s Spiritual Journeys classes or the Wheel of the Year training that will be offered in 2011, please join us for this experience.

Kim Duckett, Ph.D., Pr. Kim Duckett received her Ph.D. from The Union Institute in Women’s Studies and Transpersonal and Spiritual Psychology, with an emphasis in Women’s Psychology and Goddess and Women’s Spirituality and Ritual and has been teaching Women’s Studies in university settings for over 25 years. Most recently, her work has crystalized as one of creating a place/ structure/process for women to acknowledge, retrieve, name, release, honor, and heal old pain and anger, as individuals and collectively, and to do so in ways that honor and celebrate women and women’s ways of knowing and being. Kim does this in Circle and calls the foundational process of her work Ritual, an ancient long-buried psychology that is reemerging today. In her classes, her pastoral counseling practice, and large community ritual settings, Kim practices, teaches, and shares Circle and Ritual in support of psychospiritual healing, integration, and empowerment of women and womankind. Dr. Duckett is also founder and director of WHISPER, an Asheville based non-profit organization now in its 14th year, which offers classes,events, performances, and rituals that explore and honor women’s spirituality. She is also the founder and lead faculty of A Year and A Day Sacred Mystery School for Women (founded in 1997 and formerly known as WHISPER’s Sacred Mystery School for Women) one of just a few formal curriculum Mystery School programs specifically for women in the country. Kim’s expertise in Women’s Studies and her theories regarding the pagan Wheel of the Year as an ancient indigenous spiritual psychology is the basis of much of the learnings offered through WHISPER and the Mystery School. Kim has this to say about her work regarding the Wheel: For the last few years much of my work has focused on European earth-based shamanic and magical traditions. The centrality of the Wheel of the Year, or the Wheel of Life (the cycle of the eight Pagan holydays) in these traditions has become a beloved tool in my personal spiritual practice. I have also discovered, along with my sisters who have followed the Wheel together as a community for many years now, that the Wheel is not simply a teaching or illustrative tool about the seasons, or planting, or a backdrop for the agricultural myths of antiquity. I have come to see it as a “psychology” and a spiritual Path and teach it as such. Kim Duckett is a nationally recognized teacher and ritualist and is currently working on a forthcoming book about the Wheel of the Year as a spiritual psychology for women. She travels nationally offering this 1 Day workshop as well as the year long Women’s Spiritual Journeys and Wheel of the Year classes. ~*~*~*~*~* Barb Lutz, Tribas, is a nationally known artist whose altars and shamanic creation of sacred space have garnered many honors and praise in the goddess community and beyond. Her work enhances and brings alive Kim's work and the spiritual psychology of the Wheel of the Year. |
