Gaia&#8217s Temple

Being Mortal

Why is it that the one thing we know for sure, that someday we will die, is the thing about which we most attempt to stay in denial? As Samhain draws near, please join us and reflect on how embracing our mortality makes for the best kind of living!

News:  Starting in January 2016, Gaia's Temple will offer two services each month, on the 2nd and 4th Sundays, and a community-oriented gathering on the evening of the 3rd Wednesday.  Please stay tuned and check out www.gaiastemple.org for more information in the coming weeks.

As We Turn Toward the Dark Half of the Wheel!

Autumn returns with her cool, gentle pull.
The long days of summer she'll steal.
Then she fills our hearts with a harvest of plenty
As we turn toward the dark half of the Wheel...

Celebrate a decade and a half of worship in Gaia's Temple!
Come to experience the magick of a trance-like journey as we prepare to enter the dark half of the Wheel of the Year together!

Separating the Wheat from the Chaff

The ripening of the year is upon us. As the harvest begins, we do well to prepare for the coming seasons of fallow. Discernment is needed: What will we need, what is not necessary? What must we continue to tend, what must we sacrifice for our higher vision of life? 

Sovereignty

What would life be like if, regardless of our circumstances, we governed ourselves as our own ultimate authority? (Because we are.) Are you sure you don't have a choice? (Because you do.) Blessed be the freedom to choose!

The Bravery in Tenderness

We equate bravery with strength, boldness, and too often, aggression. Spiritual bravery is born of the courage to allow our full hearts to remain open, often vulnerable, yet fully present. How can we do this in the face of our fear? 

We'll also celebrate Father's Day by honoring all the men 

who attend this special service. Come and get your rose, Gentlemen!

Life's Longing for Itself

We are part of the eternal continuum of life longing for itself. This primal desire births through us in all our creations. We are channels for life manifesting, the answer to a deep and ancient longing.   Join us on Mother's Day this Sunday as we specifically honor all those of the female persuasion, whether or not they are biological mothers. Raise your voice with us as we sing their praises!

On Closer Inspection

Respect means to look again. 

What happens to us spiritually when we look again? When we strengthen our observational skills? When we heightening our awareness in this season of nature’s renewal?  

All Things Being Equal

On the Vernal Equinox, day and night are of equal length, Sun and Moon hold equal sway, God and Goddess are equally matched.  How might we find and strike that balance in ourselves, in our relationships, in our world? 

In A Relationship

At Imbolc, when initiations and dedications are the tradition, we acknowledge where we are spiritually and work with the energy of emerging Spring to spark our intentions that they may burn steadily and brightly as the Wheel of the Year continues to turn. We seek to emulate Bridget’s flame that will energize and keep our promises ardently alive!

Time to Start Living

Oh, it's time to start living!

Time to a little from the world we're given. Time to take time,

for Spring will turn to Fall

in just no time at all!
