A Labyrinth at the Spring Equinox
Workshop with Priestess of Avalon Vicki Brierley

As the sun moves into Aries and the day and night become equal, come and find your point of balance as we walk the sacred seven fold labyrinth.
This will be an all day workshop where Vicki will help us to create and use a labyrinth. Vicki has come to the university to facilitate workshops for us twice now and everyone who's ever attended comes away commenting on how much they got from the experience.
Her workshops usually follow the format of setting up sacred space, focusing on what we want from the day, working with a focus (in this case creating and using the labyrinth) a craft activity creating altar pieces to take home with us before a guided visualisation.
With her help we usually create a small ritual which we perform at the end of the day before closing and taking down of sacred space.

Open to all. Please bring a packed lunch and contact us for more details. The colours of the seasons are bright spring greens and delicious golds.

The Oakenwood Society

Weekend Courses on Herb Lore

Oakenwood Society is a voluntary group of people that enjoy learning and teaching on the subject of herbs.
In 2010 we will again be running a series of weekend courses, hosted on a farm set between Bristol and Cardiff, where you can relax, unwind, and learn some of the secrets that herbs contain. Learn how to grow and prepare herbs, discover how they may be used, make herbal skin products, ointments and creams, and much more.
We are easy-going, into the “hands on approach” of doing things, and not paid for what we do!

For those who may be interested, there is also the opportunity for getting involved in the group itself.

The Oakenwoods website offers extensive information on herbs, more details on the courses and an online forum, or E-mail us.

PAGAN BERKSHIRE
Berkshire's Pagan Community
We are a friendly, informal and inclusive group of people and warmly welcome all those with a sincere interest in Paganism in Berkshire. Pagan Berkshire aims to bring together all Pagans in Berkshire regardless of spiritual path or persuasion, whether you practise alone or meet with others. Non Pagans who want to chat to us and find out more are equally welcome.
Pagan Berkshire is an open group, we do not have members or an inner circle, we are simply Pagan people from Berkshire and the surrounding areas who would like to meet and get to know other local Pagans both on-line and face to face.
We arrange meet-ups in the Newbury / Thatcham and Reading areas. We have chosen to break with tradition and not have formal moots at a set time and venue each month as these have had limited success in Berkshire. Instead all events are organised amongst our on-line community on Yahoo at: Pagan Berkshire 

1st Sunday, "Back of Beyond", King St. Reading
Pagan group meeting in Reading, members are mainly from Reading and the surrounding areas of Berkshire, Bracknell & Maidenhead. We have open circle rituals, talks and other events. We are open to all friendly pagans
Reading Familiars Pagan Group

The Coven of the Night Mares
We are a non-dominational group of female Witches, based in the Reading Berks, UK area, that come together to share, learn and celebrate all things mystical and magical.
Those of you on the Pagan Path are welcome to join us as we share our knowledge and experiences at our monthly meets.
We welcome all genuine seekers who are followers of the old way's.
Please give a brief description of yourself and your chosen path on joining our group.
