	Sex Magick: Exploring the Boundaries of Intimacy
	About the facilitators.
		These Sex Magick veterans have committed to continuing the work started by Harry Hay in 1990.

	The workshop will be, in large part, driven by the participants. It will follow the long Faerie Circle tradition with each member having equal rights and responsibilities of participation. The facilitators will provide guidelines and a roadmap to “ritual space" and a foundation of emotional and spiritual support for the workshop. All facilitators are trained and skilled veterans of the workshop and offer unique perspectives and gifts.
		Rosie Delicious first attended Sex Magick in 1996, a workshop that changed his life AND his faerie name (he used to be called Rosebud - but, as he reports, "Rosebud bloomed!"). Rosie is an artist, sex shaman and writer. Rosie has been active in the faerie community since 1990 creating sex/heart circles, writing and editing for RFD, as well as co-facilitating these workshops since 2000. Currently, Rosie is developing a new lifestyle as an itinerant fey, as well as a new website www.houseofdelicious.com to track his work in the world. You can also see his work on eggshells @ www.paulwirhun.com.
	Chas is one of those long time Faeries, workshop leaders, vagabonds & participants. A comrade of Harry's, he's been intimately involved with the workshops since their founding. He continues to find joy in helping to facilitate the workshops and the relationships that sprout. Based in California and France, he also enjoys puns.
		Keystone was, in 1997, "a faerie waiting to happen." His time as a faerie has been a non-stop journey of brotherhood, sexual discovery and healing, and ridiculous amounts of fun and drama. He first participated in Sex Magick in 2005, returning as often as possible, as a participant, cook and, more often, a facilitator. Keystone used the fortitude and fierceness that he uncovered as a faerie to stage an impromptu nude protest of the TSA at Portland International Airport. Learn more at Naked American Hero. He's also a long-distance backpacker and drag clown.
		Boyscout is a radical faerie living in Berlin who’s been around (some parts of) the world a few times, with longer stops in Hungary, Austria, France, Canada, and the US. Sex Magick turned his world upside down and helped him rediscover all the colors of honest intimacy and lovesex as he was first recovering from some dark times of addiction. It still does, and that’s why he wants to share the magick and tend the community. He’s also done some work on queer history and feels connected to the legacy of the faeries and the rituals of our communities, since that’s also where we make our future.
	Morgain Lessloss, after growing up as a settler on the traditional lands of the Niitsítpiis-stahkoii (Blackfoot) First Nation in what is now known as Saskatchewan, was discovered by the Radical Faeries in 1995 (when studying for ordination in a Canadian Christian tradition). The Faeries gave words to what Morgain always knew in their soul--that sexuality and spirituality can not be separated and that attempting to do so is violence to the soul. Meeting the Faeries led Morgain to: leave the Christian tradition; live into pre-Christian Celtic spirituality and the Wiccan tradition; become a high-priestess of the Goddess Ravenna Ravine; become an ethical slut; and spend 14 years studying with a First Nation’s Elder (leading sweat lodge and pipe ceremonies for 10 of those years). In 2009/2010, Morgain once again acknowledged a calling to ordered life, but this time in a queer context, and took vows to become a Sister of Perpetual Indulgence and founded the Vancouver Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence (where she is known as Sr. Merry Q. Contrary). After living for 20 years on the traditional and unceeded territory of four Coast Salish nations (also known as Vancouver, British Columbia), Morgain moved to and now lives on land that traditionally was a meeting place of many First Nations and is known as both Takaronto and Toronto, Ontario..
