Sacred Crows Workshop
March 23@ 2-4pm
Join Rick de Yampert, author of the new Llewellyn book Crows and Ravens: Mystery, Myth, and Magic of Sacred Corvids, for an exploration of the weird, wonderful, and sacred world of crows in this workshop held at Hotel Cassadaga. As evidenced in myths, legends and even historical accounts, the uncanny abilities and behaviors of crows and ravens, part of the family of birds known as corvids, have led cultures around the world to regard the birds as sacred and supernatural creatures. Some cultures see them as emissaries from the Gods, Goddesses, and the Other Realms. Tales from the ancient Norse, Celts, Native Americans and other cultures have revealed how those peoples forged mystical connections to corvids, while contemporary accounts from individuals tell of synchronicities, eerie encounters and even magical manifestations involving the birds. This workshop also will explore ways, both practical and mystical, that participants can create personal communion with these amazing creatures. Cost is $20 cash. Signed copies of Crows and Ravens: Mystery, Myth, and Magic of Sacred Corvids will be available for purchase. Please call the hotel at 386-228-2323 to register.
