Dancing the Tarot

Circle Dance Celebration
at Holycombe House, the Cotswolds
with Hazel Young


Friday 15th to Sunday 17th September 2006

A residential weekend of Sacred Circle Dancing to explore the archetypal symbols of the Tarot through dance. Focussing on the major arcana, we will follow the journey of the Fool on a spiral path towards enlightenment. In the safe environment of Holycombe we can also compare the messages of the Tarot with our own path through Life to gain more understanding of our own journey.

In an idyllic rural setting, come to share a joyful and enlightening weekend of dance, Tarot, music, simple ritual and community.

Some experience of circle dance is required, and some knowledge of the Tarot will also help, although it's not essential.

Holycombe

A timeless and magical place: Holycombe House is situated in a peaceful corner of the Cotswolds near the village of Whichford. Set in a lush wooded valley on the site of a Norman Castle, Holycombe overlooks a pond fed by a stream which rises from a holy well nearby. Across a meadow is the ancient Whichford Wood with many rare species of trees and plants.

 

We will dance in the "Angel Room" which opens out onto the terrace. If the weather is kind ....
 
 

.... we will also dance in the large stone circle above the house. Meals will be taken in the "Garden Room"
