SUMMARY:Passage to Poros: A book talk with Edward Tick
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the Clapp Memorial Library on Thursday\, December 11 at 7pm for Passage to Poros: In the Sanctuary of the Sea God\, a book talk with Dr. Edward Tick. Explore the reawakening of ancient Greek healing practices by taking this journey of transformation\, myth\, and divine presence to the sacred island of Poros\, a site of pilgrimage and healing for more than 3\,000 years. This book examines pilgrimage\, sanctuary\, and asylum\, the duties of Poseidon who was the ruling god of Poros. Edward Tick rediscovers asylia\, the original practice of sanctuary that provides safety and inspiration while facilitating healing and connection to divinity. He explores “crossing the strait” as safe passage between the visible world and the invisible realms of the sacred. Drawing on ancient traditions\, Tick shows how we know ourselves\, our destinies\, and our connection to the divine through dreams\, visions\, oracles\, and synchronistic events. Passage to Poros offers wisdom for anyone seeking healing\, sanctuary\, spiritual presence\, and reconnection with ancient and eternal forces. Books will be available for purchase and signing.
