Synopsis: A classic Gardnerian Full Moon Rite by Anza Faie. Anza studied under, and was elevated to Third by, Doreen Valiente in the the late 1960s.

The Hero's Journey Dark Moon Rite
Adapted by Four Quarters
Synopsis: Sacred Circle cast as an expression of a groups emotional process, this rite was written at a time when the Church and its members were under attack for their beliefs as a tactic in a member's divorce case. An excellent example of ceremony with a specific psychological intent of recognition and healing.
