October 29 Evening Lodge. Arrive by 1pm to start fire and begin ceremony.
This will be an open house weekend for those who want to stay over Sunday and enjoy the fall colors and a hike.
This lodge will be held in honor of the qualities of the direction of the West. This is the time of the Fall and the Harvest. It is the time of responsibility and inner self knowledge. It is a time for thanksgiving and it is a time of trials. It is a time of sorting out the wheat from the shaft and a time to set aside the seed corn for the new spring. It is a good time to pray with and for all of creation. I hope you can join me. call me for more information 540 752-5540
Wear comfortable cloths to be outside in the woods all day. Bring cloths to wear into the lodge that are loose fitting, but cover you. T-shirt and underwear is minimum. As a woman I like to wear a long skirt into the lodge. After the lodge you can change back into your woods cloths. You may want a towel or two. If you plan to camp here after the lodge, you can bring your own equipment or rent equipment here. You may want to bring extra cloths, and toiletries. You will also need to think about additional food depending on the length of your stay. You can also stay over in the retreat room, or salao.
We have a pot of beans and tea we serve after a lodge, please bring a little something to go with the bean soup. Bread, fruit, cheese, salad, apple cider, deserts, etc. You may also want to have a water bottle and some fruit to bring to the lodge area. It is good to eat lunch and then you will not eat a meal again until after the lodge.
