ANNUAL GAY SHAMANS RETREAT
A Rite of Spring
Facilitated by Tony Allicino
& Tom Cowan
Friday, March 26 - Sunday, March 28, 2010
Emerging from winter, the season of
“with-in,” we will gather at the Vernal
Equinox to be with Nature and our Bloodline Ancestors.
Together we will collectively create a Rite of Spring
to feed our roots and support new growth in our spiritual
and physical lives. Using traditional shamanic techniques
of ecstasy (ex stasis = to stand outside oneself),
we will support each other to dissolve the fog of separateness,
move towards a deeper realization of our androgyny,
and connect with joy of the new season as a gift from
the Divine.
This retreat is open to gay men and
women who practice Shamanism as a primary and regular
spiritual practice.
If you have attended a previous retreat, please register
directly with Easton Mountain. First time participants,
please contact Tony Allicino at or
Tom (845-691-3564) before registering.
