Seasonal Ceremonies are for Members only. 

They are held quarterly at 5:30pm, followed by a dinner at a local restaurant at 7:15pm. 

Membership

Membership of the Society of Guardians is by application or invitation only (usually after attending the Celtic Prayer and Meditation Services for 1 year), getting to know the Senior Guardian and other members, and undergoing a period of preparation, spiritual study, and discernment. 

Applicants must be 18 years of age and hold a belief in God/Higher Power. 

Members undertake to develop a daily spiritual practice of contemplative prayer, meditation, service, and spiritual study and to embark on a Spiritual pilgrimage on the Celtic Christian and Western Esoteric spiritual paths. 

Members may attend the Seasonal Ceremonies held four times a year in March, June, September, and December to mark the seasonal cycles of Autumn, Winter, Spring, and Summer. 

New members are welcomed by a simple rite of reception and wear a simple while alb/robe and a knotted cingulum(cord). Guardians of the Quarters wear hooded cloaks of Yellow, Red, Blue, and Green to represent the elements whose offices they represent. Traditionally, the Senior Guardian wears a brown Franciscan friars robe or an all-white Monastic Habit.

The Ceremonies are participatory and held in a sacred circle with candles and incense and draw on the Celtic Catholic and Western Mystery Traditions. During the ceremonies we  commune with the four elements of creation and the archangels and  take part in meditation, prayer, chant, seasonal readings, and symbolic ritual.
