Return to the main Spiral Dance pageSamhain Through Children's EyesMaya and Julian Litauer-Chen have participated in many Reclaiming rituals in San Francisco and the North Bay, including several Spiral Dances. RQ interviewed them following the 2001 Samhain ritual, when they were four-and-a-half years old. Photo - "John Cody Chanting," by Cynthia Cirile.
RQ: How did you like the Spiral Dance?J: I liked all of it. I liked that they were singing, and I liked that they sang the songs we have on our tape. M: I liked the spiral.
RQ: Did you like the altars?M: Just the Water altar. J: I liked all the altars. The Water altar was my favorite. M: Mine, too.
RQ: What else can you tell us about the Spiral Dance?J: I liked that we drove our car in (into the huge building to unload altar supplies). I liked the little secret place where we put our things (behind the South altar). M: I was a little scared.
RQ: What was scary to you?M: The people on stilts.
RQ: What invocations did you like?M: I liked the Fire and Water invocations. J: I liked that our mom waved a big blue cloth (as part of the Water invocation). I liked the whole Spiral Dance.
