Pagan Clergy
TishMaran
Located in: Pittsfield, Massachusetts
Clergy Profile: May the Goddess be borne in every heart today!
Registered to solemnize legal Handfastings and other marriages in Massachusetts, as the High Priest of the Temple of Risinisis, and recognized by my coven and community to perform the other Rites of Passage, I established my practice first in 1986, as a young person, under the teachings of my family elders. To date I have officiated, with great love and care, at Wiccanings, Coming of Age rites, Handfastings, Handpartings, House and Land Blessings, Banishings, Craft Initiations, Funerals and Seances.
In 1992, I completed a crystal healing apprenticeship in Pittsfield and
soon after was elevated to the 3* in the Alexandrian Tradition, deep in the Berkshire village at the Green Bog. In 1995 I was initiated, in Amherst, into the worship of White Tara of the Tibetan Buddhist Tradition, and in 1996, I was invited into the Chalice Well Coven (in Lee) - where I stayed for several fabulous years.
After graduating with a bachelor's degree in Pre-Christian Religious Thought from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, I was gifted with the Master degree Usui Reiki, and Johrei Reiki attunements, in Northampton and South Hadley respectively, and so was able to further incorporate a Universal Sense of Healing and enhanced Energy Projection into my professional practice, and my lifestyle.
In 2001, I completed one year of a three-year curriculum of Chinese Medicine at the Tri-State College of Acupuncture in Manhattan (NYC) , where I earned over 500 hrs. of credit in Acupuncture Theory and TCM.
In Pittsfield, in 2002, I founded the Coven and the Temple of Risinisis with my beloved Consort, and was able to formalize the EarthGate Tradition of Wicca from remnants of family practice, and my individual masters' teachings. In that year I also received my Minister's Credentials from the Temple of Risinisis.
Several years later I completed an Advanced Massage and Bodywork certification at the Kripalu Center in Lenox, later becoming a licensed massage therapist, and then in 2006, I finally completed a ten-year professional Astrology Apprenticeship in Chicopee.
Today, as a doctoral candidate, I have established a professional ministry and professional health care practice centered in Pittsfield/The Berkshires, and am available to consecrate the gamut of the Pagan Rites of Passage for both straight and gay people. Likewise, our Temple offers a ministerial cohort in which successful candidates will receive Ordainment, Minister's Credentials, and legal registration in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
I see my role in our community as one of perpetuating healing, eu-information, love, beauty, environmental remediation and stellar transmutation; A father and son to some, a brother to others; I am a channel of the Gods, and so thankful for such.
By the Moon, Earth, Stars and Sun, may the Gods Walk and Talk with us always!
Blessed Be,
TishMaran, H.P., Temple of Risinisis
