Gaia Scouts (ages 12-18)

Gaia Scouts (ages 12-18) is a school year-long-once a month-4 hour circle that meets on a Sunday (to assist those with Saturday engagements) taught by Victoria Gill and her assistant-Patty Snow.  This unique type of magickal scouts addresses the heart-mind and spirit of the maiden in the process of becoming a woman in full power.  And, who is in touch with the earth upon which she stands (Gaia)-the moon above her head (Grandmother Moon) and the teachings and myths of the Goddess tradition.

What is a Gaia Scout?

A Gaia Scout is a maiden who is involved in a series of teachings that follows the old ways of the Goddess tradition as well as the cycles of the moon and looks to the magick that dwells in a young maiden’s body-mind and spirit.  It is a path that aligns with the ancient Celtic-European-folklore-traditions and customs.

As a girl enters and lives her teen years, there are overwhelming challenges which face a young woman of this age.  Gaia Scouts provide a safe place to honor herself-the goddess within and the earth (Gaia) upon which she stands.  Gaia Scouts also provides an opportunity to come and sit at the feet of wise women (crones) and to learn the ways of those who have walked before her on this path of life.
