How Ritual Works and How to Design Your Own

Ritual forms an intrinsic part of the human experience. From birth until  death, we are surrounded by ceremonies that are created to mark rites  of passage and changes in life. However, in the pagan worldview, we also  use ritual to connect to the spirits of the land, to deepen our  relationships with deity, and to mark the changing seasons of the year.  But just how does ritual work on our psyche, and how do we go about  creating our own personal rituals without getting bogged down in lengthy  texts and complex actions. In this talk, we will uncover the purpose of  ritual, how it works, and how to design personal rituals that will help  you feel connected and fulfilled.
