The cornerstone of the Dance of the Spirit philosophy is that the world is a wonderful, magical, mystical place. We honor not only women of the Earth, but the Earth Mother herself, Gaia. DOTS know that there is an amazing cache of wisdom to be found within ancient cultures; we will share such folklore, rituals, and sacred reflections, as well as divining modalities such as the I Ching, Tarot, Astrology and Dowsing. We also offer interesting information that we refer to as "News of the Weird." Whether it brings you a smile or a shudder, we hope you enjoy it..
