The Art of Ceremony, what does it really mean? What is it? What is a daily ceremony? It’s an intentional routine that’s connected with how you start, how you move through, or how you end your day, the goal of ceremony is to be aware of time passing, but not to stress out about it; to observe it and notice that it counts. The little things in life count.
Why do we have ceremony? They make life’s essential moments. They may reflect our beliefs, hopes, our traditions, culture, and spirituality. It’s a way to bring people together and provide a sense of belonging.
As a celebrant you are composing ceremonies steeped in tradition and ritual. So, whether a Marriage, Funeral or Baby Naming ceremony, the Compendiums offered by CTA give you the words, knowledge, resources and skills to professionally compose and deliver meaningful, respectful ceremonies for all occasions. They offer you guides and many alternatives to the beginning, the substance and the conclusion that are incorporated within any ceremony.
The Art of Ceremony compendiums also explain and expand on the many “rituals” that may be used through the ceremony. A “ritual” is defined by psychologists as a predefined sequence of symbolic actions. Rituals make us less anxious. Ritualistic practices can help to bring a degree of predictability to an uncertain future. They convince our brains of constancy. It brings about a sense of predictability.
These Compendiums are sent in PDF format so, if you do not already have it installed, please download the FREE Adobe PDF Reader.
