Church of Myth – a monthly mythic convening
Star + Splendor 96 Congress Street, Troy, NY, United StatesCLAIM YOUR SPOT HERE. CHURCH OF MYTH This is new. This is church. A place to feel closer to the red thread of spirit that connects us all. A place to meet other people like you. Church of Myth will be held on the 3rd Sunday of each month at Star + Splendor at 96 Congress Street, Troy, NY, from 4 – 5:30 pm. There will be a myth-based sermon followed by a corresponding ritual. Each month will be different; each mythic tale chosen to reflect the stars, as well as our collective hearts & minds. All are welcome. Coffee hour will follow Church. Come meet & mingle! We’re keeping it just a little traditional over here 😉 CHAPTER 1: PAN Pan, god and protector of shepherds and all untamed, wild places, is one of the greatest and most powerful of the ancient Gods. Depicted as half-man and half-goat, he represents nature in all of its raw, wild strength, and is a symbol of the joyous and often gruesome way nature goes about propagating her own fertility and abundance. As the initiatory meeting of Church of Myth occurs so close to the Summer solstice, Pan is undoubtedly the perfect mythic figure to start with.
