Perspectives: Finding Spirit In Nature
Author: Harry Dorman Source: Traverse City Record-Eagle (MI)
Title: PERSPECTIVES: FINDING SPIRIT IN NATURE
Within the Wiccan faith, earth, nature and natural processes represent deity through which Wiccans align with the central realm of spirit where all faiths ultimately meet as equals.
For this reason, Wiccans choose to worship in nature settings as a rule rather than the exception, with the majority of of sacred events in the Wiccan religious year being held outdoors.
One such holy day is Lammas ("la-mahs"), also known as Lughnasadh ("loo-nah-sod"), which occurs in the early days of August, when followers of nature-based religions in the Northern Hemisphere celebrate the first harvest of the growing season.
