CHANGING FACES OF THE TEMPLE

A GIFT TO WELCOME 2012

Minette writes: 

"As the Sun set on 2011, Olivia and I descended

 into the Temple of Isis at Clonegal Castle 

and offered a ceremony of thanksgiving and blessing

 for the ancestors and all who help with the work of Isis of Sirius.

 As we moved around the Shrines 

within the area of Brigid Na Mara’s Well

And on into the Holiest of Holies in the Star Chapel, 

the atmosphere warmed as the Shrines lit up

 in response to Olivia’s words.

 It was a great joy and honour to be present at this special time."

 The boy spotted his own portrait, looking at it!
