I presented one workshop here, "The Way of the Trees: a magical training system" on Saturday afternoon. On Friday, I was asked to lead the main Saturday night ritual. It was a very moving ritual focused on the Nature Spirits and the natural world. The omen told us that everything we gave during the ritual was not enough and that we had to make changes in our daily life to bring about the necessary changes to the natural world.
At this festival, I had my first chance to sell regalia for ADF for the year. We sold about $593 worth. Very impressive!
Distance traveled:
