The Easter Cycle

During the Easter cycle, the year itself changes, dies and is reborn. However, the cycle runs deeper than that of mere this-worldly events. "As above, so below". Things of the world are but reflections of those things that transcend, predate, and are the causes of all worldly being. Thus the rebirth of the day, and of the year, are but shadows of the rebirth of the cosmos itself and of Deity Herself. Read all about Easter and the Divine Maid's role in the renewal of the cosmos.

Tamala and the cutting of the thread

Tamala, the culmination of the Mysteries of Life season, is a three-day fire festival known as the Feast of the Dead. The three Fates are closely associated with the season, and at Tamala the central Fate is she who cuts the thread. This may refer to human death, to the collapse of a civilization or to the eventual end of the universe itself. All these events are circular, for maids die and are reborn, civilizations rise, fall and rise again, and even the universe, after the night of time, shall be re-manifested.

The Golden Festival

Chelanya, the Golden Festival, also called the Festival of Regeneration, opens the Mysteries of Life season. It is particularly concerned with renewal and rebirth – and all birth is rebirth – while later festivals are about abundance of life and about death. The Mysteries of Life were a primary focus of the worship of Demeter in the ancient world and the harvest is their central symbol. Read more about Demeter and Chelanya, the Golden Festival

Rose of the World

The High Feast of Rosa Mundi is the central festival of Summer, opening the season of the Fire and the Rose. The season is a solar-lunar one, beginning with the summer solstice and ending with the full moon, this year a week later.
