A note from Jean: Money is fraught with family attitudes and gender social messages. Love, power, entitlement, shame, guilt, self-esteem and self-worth can become intertwined with money. A sense of scarcity or abundance may have something or nothing to do with how much money there is. To make money, have money, or publicly give  money away are positive attributes for men, that enhance their stature with other men. Usually, it is not the same for women. For both, money can be the means through which generosity and gratitude, belief in others, and one’s values can be expressed. To have more money than one needs, is a responsibility and fun to have and give away. I think philantropy can be activism and that when it is most effective, there is a spiritual component. Many opportunities to make a difference come along.  My three criteria are:  Is it meaningful?  Will it be fun?  Is it motivated by love? Whether this will take your time or money, the essential is whether heart and psyche align with the cause.  


September 15-20 – Chartres, France
Chartres Cathedral: Walking a Sacred Path
Crossing to Avalon: Pilgrimage of the Sacred Feminine
Verditas
415-561-2921 contact@veriditas.net
Website:  www.veriditas.org

Chartres Cathedral is built upon an ancient goddess and Druid sacred site, where pilgrims journeyed long before Christianity to quicken the divinity in themselves. We will spend mornings with Jean. Through narratives, meditations and in circles with a sacred center, participants will reflect and remember their own stories. We can travel through our own lives as either pilgrims or tourists. If we are spiritual beings on a human path, then our lives were meant to be meaningful and authentic, our losses and suffering can burnish the soul or diminish it. While there is a linear chronology to our lives, there is usually a labyrinthine quality to following or finding the thread of meaning. A pilgrimage allows us to recollect liminal experiences, moments out of time. The psyche responds as if to a dream or to poetry and synchronicities happen when we seek to go through the mists to metaphoric Avalon.
