Miriam has decided to celebrate her 14th birthday with us in the traditional way. In the old-school ceremony of the rebirth festival, the birthday
child first lays aside its legacy burdens, such as unfavourable characteristics and inauspicious connections. Thereafter, a symbolic
rebirth takes place, which equates to a new beginning.

Pagan Wedding on 21 December 2017 in Königs Wusterhausen

Annulment of a Marriage-Tie on 16 December 2017 near Berlin
This weekend, we performed the annulment of a marriage covenant in stormy autumn weather. In this short ceremony, the bond between the marriage partners is separated consciously and with the explicit consent of both partners. The defusion of a marriage companionship is an important step, when a couple no longer feels attracted to each other and their common life ends. After the separation ceremony, husband and wife can enter into new connections free and unburdened.
The cold season is coming – time to say farewell!
The warm days of summer lay behind us. The autumn storms sweep over the land and the fog cloaks and veils the landscape. The dark season has
begun and therewith the year is drawing to a close.
