Amazons
at Elderflower Womenspirit
Amazons are the protectors of women's mysteries. An Amazon is a defender of all women and of Mother Earth. Fierce as the lioness, and gentle as the deer, Amazons are Witches and Warriors. An Amazon can also be in any phase of the Triple Goddess - maiden, mother, or crone. "We band together as women identified women in our Sacred Amazon Sisterhood." If you are an Amazon who
has attended the festival in previous years as an Amazon, and would like
to submit a short write up for this page, please send an email to info

Elderflower Womenspirit is a place where priestesses of all levels of experience may come to refresh themselves and to meet other priestesses. We seek to increase the variety of activities of special interest to priestesses of any tradition and type of practice. Elderflower Womenspirit honors the guidance of priestesses in every aspect of the festival, from rituals to the atmosphere in the dining hall. We welcome suggestions and help. If you are interested in participating or have questions, contact the festival. We are currently searching for a Priestess Coordinator to develop this program. We seek someone to build a program to support and nurture our accomplished and aspiring spiritual and community leaders. Please let us know if you are interested in taking on this on.
A Note About Interfaith Work Ministers and teachers of religions that are not Goddess oriented are welcome to participate in Elderflower Womenspirit Priestess activities. |
