Message to New Members

Message for all Global Sites, from Olivia Robertson and The Circle of Brigid:

"The Fellowship of Isis advises new members or seekers to practise discernment in joining individual groups and taking classes. There have been some individuals operating under the name of the Fellowship who are not genuine, and have inappropriate intention in misusing the literature of the Fellowship of Isis. We advise you to confirm the authenticity of your supposed teacher through the authorised websites of the Fellowship of Isis, who maintain up to date listings of all authentic Iseums and Lyceums, Groves of the Druid Clan of Dana, and the Noble Order of Tara."

Castle Festivals

A notice was received from Minette Quick this morning: 

"Olivia Durdin-Robertson has arranged for all ceremonies at Clonegal Castle to be facilitated by the Circle of Brigid, The Druid Clan of Dana, and the Noble Order of Tara. A general plan has been approved, including her family. This is part of a general plan to protect the future Fellowhip of Isis from inappropriate use."

Book highlight: Maya

 
Now available in paperback format: "Maya, Goddess Rites for Solo Use."  This book was written by Olivia Robertson and consists of five rituals written specifically for solitary Fellowship of Isis members. From the introduction:

"Through the years members have asked for devotional practices for those who worship the Goddess on their own. The word 'worship' describes the initial stage of our relation to the Divine Mother: as we develop in Her way we achieve a loving identity with Her, while retaining our own originality, and honour for Her manifestation through others. Daily private practice, whether in silence or in spoken words, is essential for sustained progress on the religious path. To invoke, sing and dance on one's own requires moral courage, but unbinds the soul! There is no limitation to the Pantheon of Deities in all faiths, and no limit either to the divinity latent in each of their offspring. Therefore although apparently alone, the Devotee becomes more and more part of that rainbow network which brings Heaven on earth."

Please also note that the book "Isis of Fellowship, How the Fellowship of Isis Was Founded" is now available internationally through all of Amazon's online stores, as well as from local libraries.
