It is a time set aside to journey up the mountain by going deep inside icon painting. Ask for help to re calibrate the madness we have suffered over the past year. It is is a time for reflection and wonder with the spirit of light which dwells in us all.

This is an optimal season for sacred arts and exploring new practices.
