Topic: The Power of Storytelling
Guest Guide: Cali Veilleux
What an enchanting evening! We were all energized by a lovely altar made by our guide, Cali. It featured a host of interesting treasures from semi-precious stone carved creatures to handmade dolls to Native American baskets.
We enjoyed and joined with the modern chants of Karen Drucker from her Songs of the Spirit II CD for the entrainment, silent meditation and closing.
Cali, a trained storyteller, presented an expanded view of storytelling as a way to teach larger concepts and reach people on a more inner level. She wove her own personal story with that of her formal rendition of The Lost Mother Moon. A dramatic portraial of a myriad of spiritual concepts, this story touched us all deeply.
Cheryl then led us through a journey which invited each participant to extract the 3-4 concepts or gifts the story had given them. A gentle and lovely sharing followed where many people offered an array of specific jewels they had pulled from the material.
Our thanks go out to Cali for sharing with us and we all asked her to join us again.
