Please feel free to  pass the information in the Ardantane Herald to anyone 
who might be interested.  New Information in  red. 
The new newsgroup is  ready for use!  This is our first newsletter after 
solving some sticky  administrative issues which meant we had to switch servers 
once again to get the  kind of service we need.  Our Webspirit, Chris Echohawk, 
has been working  this issue very carefully, and deserves a huge vote of 
thanks for all his hard  work.

DECEMBER CLASS  DESCRIPTIONS  
Sat-Sun Dec 2-3: Group Dynamics in Paganism, Amber,  Azrael 
You’ve worked hard for the Pagan community. Why not reward  yourself this 
fall with a weekend in the beautiful Jemez Mountains, learning, socializing, and  
relaxing with other friendly Pagan elders? 
The  Group Dynamics Intensive is for you, if you hold a leadership role in a 
group,  if you have ever wanted to be a group leader, or if you want to thrive 
as a  member within a group. It is a chance for you to meet with other 
experienced  Elders and share concerns and solutions. The intensive is highly 
recommended for  Pagan Elders who have not had any formal training in Group Dynamics 
and Group  Process. The program will: 
·         Provide tools you can use to make your own group stronger and more  
effective. 
·         Fill gaps in your own formal training on group facilitation and  
group dynamics. 
·         Give you techniques for fostering love and trust in your  group. 
·         Offer strategies and tactics for dealing with challenging members  
and problem situations. 
·         Provide a forum where you can discuss group issues with other  
Pagan elders and leaders, in a confidential and supportive  environment. 
Amber K is  the author of Covencraft, True Magick, and other books on magick 
and Paganism;  she has been a Wiccan priestess for 25 years, was First 
National Officer of  Covenant of the Goddess for three terms, and is  nationally 
known as a Craft teacher. 
Azrael Arynn K is a priestess of the third degree in the Ladywood  Tradition 
of Wicca, and co-author of Heart of Tarot, Candlemas, and Ritualcraft,  as 
well as a costume designer and ritualist.
