"Kali" by Lisa Iris

Festival-supporter, incredible artist, and beautiful soul Lisa Iris does it again. Once again, she has donated an incredible print which will be auctioned off at our Spring Fundraiser. Stay tuned for details on that one! And in the meantime, why don’t you head over to Crystal Wind and show some good, old, Manitoba Goddess Fest love?

Hello Everyone! I just wanted to contribute a post to say I’m very excited about this year’s goddess.

Baba Yaga seems by all accounts a mystery and maze of contradictions ~ reminding us that everything is relative, and that there is something important about learning to traverse a spectrum of meaning. Working to appreciate and experience (rather than label or shut down to) landscapes of darkness and light, life and death, interiors and exteriors, endings and beginnings, in as fluid and attentive a way as possible is great for sharpening instinct and intuition. Learning how to handle intuition in time leads to the kind of action that taps into your own unlimited potential. And then the fun begins! Baba Yaga has the strong femininity and wisdom of a crone goddess. She is stern, and requires respect, but also presents you with the importance of your own healing and being true to yourself.

I hope to discover more to do with my own creativity ~ a longstanding subject of interest ~ and find that preparing for this kind of discovery leads to hearing about the journeys of others, and to plenty of meaningful coincidence. Please visit us here, and on Facebook, and share your stories!

Janine from the festival recommends looking into Clarissa Pinkola Estes’ Women Who Run With the Wolves for information on Baba Yaga – a great idea. There’s also a helpful meditation on http://www.orderwhitemoon.org/goddess/babayaga/BabaYaga.html for an encounter with the goddess. Make sure to bring her a question and a gift!

All the Best,

Margaret-Eve ~ MGFI Organizer

So, here we are, a few weeks shy of our sophomore edition, and we are all starting to set our sights on the 2012 Festival. Perhaps that optimism helps us keep motivated as the hectic pace increases to insanely manic. Perhaps we just like multi-tasking. Whatever the truth may be, we’ve set up this quick teaser website, to help whet your appetite for next year’s edition.

See you in September!
