Celebrating the Ancients Program 
 
An Herbal Apprenticeship in Four Seasons  
 
12 month program October 2005 - October 2006  
 
The ancient wise women are calling us to re-member, to once 
again practice the old ways of honoring the earth and Her 
cycles, ourselves and our cycles. They whisper " Move with 
the rhythm of Gaia, listen to Her heartbeat, dance through 
Her cycles of Roots, Blossoms, Harvest and Seeds. Sisters, 
come into the circle and know you have been here before." 
 
In this program the women will gather to awaken the 
healer/priestess within. With each seasonal cycle we will 
celebrate the movement of the wheel, focusing our thoughts 
and experiences toward the plants, Goddesses, physical and 
spiritual influences appropriate to the calendar. Join us 
as we journey back and re-member the healing ways of long 
ago. This program is for women only. 
 
The focus of this program will center around seasonal 
themes beginning with Seed (Winter), Roots (Spring), 
Blossoms (Summer), and Harvest (Autumn), incorporating 
aspects of: Woman as healer/priestess, Medicine making, 
Plant gathering, Seasonal influence on body, mind and 
spirit, Connecting with plants vibration ally, Using plants

Testimonials:  
 
What can I say? I loved every minute of the class. It was 
beyond my expectations. Susan is a warm and giving teacher. 
You will not be disappointed. - Jane B. 
 
I have to tell you that it was one of the most wonderful 
experiences I've ever been a part of. Susan is a wealth of 
knowledge - with plants and herbs, medicinals, rituals, 
goddesses, history and even crafts! The program was well 
structured and she's an excellent teacher and mentor. The 
program, as you know, is a whole year commitment, but I 
can't believe how quickly that year passed. I always 
looked forward to our next gathering. I learned so much in 
this program - about all of the above - but even more so 
about myself! The greatest outcome of this program, 
however, was not only the new friendships we made, but the 
sisterhood bond that we formed. Let me tell you, there is 
nothing like it! - Deb G. 
 
I just finished up the Ancients course - I can not begin to 
tell you what a great class that was and how much it 
changed me...... 
Susan is a wonderful and extremely knowledgeable teacher - 
we learned much about herbs associated with the different 
times on the Wheel of the year along with the different 
rituals that pertain to holidays on the Wheel. The Rituals 
actually ended up being my favorite portion of the course, 
connecting with the Elements and spirit was just 
incredible. 
It was also very nice to connect with a group of like 
minded women. 
What else can I say??? there is so much!!! 
We did plant identification at Susan's home and it was 
glorious to get out and actually see the herbs in their 
natural habitat instead of dried in jars. Communication 
with plant spirit was part of our class that day, and it 
was unbelievable. (You open your mind to have the plant 
share it's healing information with you.) - Sally H. 
 
Brightest Blessings,
