Justin ~
Safety Coordinator
 |
Justin is a former Marine who has been handling safety
duties for pagan gatherings for over 10 years. His spiritual path is best
described as pagan warrior, walking the fine line between harm none and
doing what is needed to protect those in his charge. His hobbies include
almost all of the martial arts, military history and just to annoy the
family cats he plays the violin and recorder.
You can most likely find him at events walking the area and keeping an
eye on everything, or at night with glow sticks trying to avoid the poison
ivy. |
Deb ~
Web Mistress, Ritual Coordinator, Public Liason
 |
Deb is a Mom of 3 amazing children, an

expanding her knowledge - through books and teachers "in person". She
has been teaching Reiki at festivals since 2002. With a slight
addiction to collecting crystals, she enjoys energy work of all kinds.

Sorchae ~

Sorchae is a proud mom and has been honored to serve her
country as a Sailor for the past 21 years. She has been affiliated with the
Pagan path for about fifteen years and settled on Gaelic Traditionalism
about five years ago. She is a Warrior at heart but loves to putter and
tinker and spend time with family, bees, chickens, cows, dogs and cats, and
the land on her small farm in VA. |

Lisa (Adams)
Starnes has been practicing witchcraft since 1989. She began her career
in Holistic Health as a Massage Therapist in 1995, continuing her
studies by becoming a Reiki Master and obtaining certification as a
Holistic Health Practitioner, where she learned to work with herbs,
homeopathics, energy, TCM and more. To ritually affirm her desire to
help others, she became ordained in the Order of Melchizadek in 1996,
eventually becoming legally recognized by the State of Virginia as
clergy in 2002. Since then, she has performed many weddings and loves to
do so. Lisa dedicated herself to the Goddess after re-locating to
Charlottesville from the Northern Virginia rat race in 1998. Shortly
thereafter, she attended her first Beltane festival – the 1999
Charlottesville Beltane Festival. The following year, along with a group
of friends, Lisa became involved with the festival, moving it to
Heavenly Acres Campground. Lisa continued on the Beltane Festival
committee until 2005 as workshop and ritual coordinator, and as
treasurer for the Blue Ridge Pagan Alliance. She was easily lured back
in to festival planning with the founding of Mountain Mysteries in 2009
with the first annual Mountain Mysteries Mabon festival. Lisa is a
Second Degree High Priestess, although her true path is much broader
including Hinduism, Yoga and Buddhism. Lisa has attended several of the
Mid-Atlantic Pagan Leadership Conferences, and went on to organize the
Central Virginia Pagan Community Conference in 2004, carrying forward
the spirit of community organization she learned from the MA-PLC. She
graduated Magna Cum Laude from James Madison University with a
Bachelor’s in Religion and Women’s Studies in 2004. She likes to tell
folks she majored in the Goddess. |
