A Witches Night 2002
A Truly Magikal Retreat for the Mind, Body and Soul.
October, 11th, 12th & 13th.
@ Wekiwa State Park
This is the night when the veils to our worlds are open and all shall be remembered. So come join us in the remembrance of our love ones. This is a time of rebirth and transition. So come ye. Come all. and enjoy the celebration of life. This is fundraising event for the incorporation of
S.T.O.N.E (Spiritual Teachings On Natural Eclecticism). Within the stone there is everything you only have to put your ear to the ground to hear what the earth mother has to say. The Stones are the children of the earth. We are dedicated to the fundamental teachings of our community at large. Under stone we are all equal, as the great sprit wanted us to be. We are a group dedicated to the mother earth and the father sky. We do not discriminate on
person or creed. STONE is here to provide the community with all of its natural teachings. Under the STONE we will hold celebrations, rituals, workshops, and classes for the education of the mind, body and soul. So come join us and enjoy the All that nature has to offer. This Festival will be done totally outside. There will be workshops, discussions, singing, food, and much more. This is a time when all pagans should get together and worship as they see fit. There is no Dictation to life only meaning. We are
all the same in the eyes of the Great Spirit. So come and join us in the celebration of the life giving earth. Until we all meet.

Confirmed Workshops
Two Day Goddess Training - by Lady Draikaina
This will start from the beginning till now. The workshops will include all materials and lecture. We will go over all the basic and comprehension of the goddess in her many forms.
Tailsen will be giving a Drum Workshop on Drumbeats and Rhythms. He is also the publisher of local pagan books and is a member of the Melbourne Drum tribe. He will also be vending his wares.
Also Neighborhood Productions would like to offer 25% off to all Stone Members on any single copy orders off of the website of any item that we are currently carrying. http://nproductions.tripod.com
Grey Ghosthawk will be holding a Native American Pipe Ceremony and Workshop on Native American Ceremonies.
And he will be doing a ceremony to the ancestors on Friday night.
Oriental Dance and the Basic Moves - by Jaye
The class will give a brief overview of the history of Oriental dance, (belly dancing). Give a brief demo of dance to other than Middle eastern music, and give examples of other types of music to move by. Then there will be a few minutes of stretching, long, slow easy movement, and tips for exercise and dancing for the person with health problems. Bas legs, backs, necks, heart conditions, asthma and the list goes on. There will than be a lesson in basic body movements, standing and sitting in chairs. I hope to
impart the joy of dancing, the love of ones body is nothing else is taken from this class, that every woman has a beauty within her, and about her. I hope the women who join me learn to take that one part of them that they
really like about themselves and make it the center of their self-expression and personal joy. Methods of dancing that are subtle yet teasing and pleasing will be explored. Finishing with a long closing stretch and a word toward the positive will be passed around.
Erotic and Fancy Free Dancing - by Jaye
This will be an open and fun class where the basic steps will be shown and those who dare are welcomed to come up, share and enjoy the time with friends moving to the beat of a variety of music. Styles explored will be Oriental (belly dance), African, Native American soft foot patterns (can be very sensual), Gypsy and Tribal Dance. The class will close with a dance around, where one person will start the dance and passes it one to the next, and it continues around until we laugh ourselves onto the floor or dance
ourselves into a state of passion, in love with ourselves and sharing that love with our lovers, chosen partners and the gathering of loving sisters and brothers around us. Again the use of chair and some floor work will be
touched upon.
About Jaye
Jaye, aka GatorsDarkstarj received training in various classroom and universities and in the back rooms that were full of celebrating woman in Saudi Arabia and other Islamic Communities through out the world and the country. (This dance and every dance I do, is a tribute to those wonderful
ladies, my sisters, who still live behind the veils.) My Oriental Dance training is mainly of the Persian Style, where the upper body and soft foot movements are the focus, rather than the Beladi or Cabaret style which is
more focused on the hips, lower body movement and gyrations. I am also trained in Modern, African, jazz and some Very basic Ballet. (Those toe shoes hurt!!!) I am bonded and married to my beloved Gator Marc, the joy of
my life.
DragonSpyre will be putting on the ritual on Sat Night. We will be putting on the Ritual from the Egyptian Book of the Dead for rebirth and reincarnation. We will also be holding meditations and cleanings for this rebirth.
