Beltane Emergence Moon
Tomorrow through Sunday the Woolly Mammoths will tramp through the village of Frontenac. Our 26th retreat happens at Villa Maria Retreat Center. The theme, as I’ve noted before is, What is your walk? This is vague. Yes, but it allows a good bit of filling in with whatever makes sense to the individual.
We plan to take some hikes. Perhaps do the labyrinth. We may discuss our walk. Or we may not. On Friday night the herd will wander into Red Wing for dining at the St. James Hotel.
The last time we were at Villa Maria it was a very cold January weekend, a weekend that had a lunar eclipse. Many of us went outside on the retreat center’s grounds, found an open area and watched as the blood moon developed.
We used to structure our retreats with great care, making sure that each of us had plenty of time to present and get feedback. Over the last few years the structure has tended to fall away in favor of a more relaxed time together.
