The pines transform

Rites of Spring 34 ~ May 23-28, 2012

Celebrating the Sacred Earth

We gather once again to celebrate the sacred Earth
and the turning of the seasons in the mountains of western Massachusets.

Together we will weave the web of community
Ancient traditions and new thought come together in workshops and conversation.

Young people pass from childhood with the community's blessing.

The sacred fires burn, drums echo the rhythms of life
and dancers join the sparks flying toward the darkened sky.

Lasting friendships form and families grow as we come together
in our learning, our music, our ritual and our joy.

We look forward to seeing you at Rites 34
