David Tresemer

David Tresemer, Ph.D., a graduate in psychology from Harvard University, is a writer, a dramatist, a teacher and founder of a multi-faith, nature-based spiritual center called The StarHouse which celebrates the seasons, the lunar cycles and the traditions and rituals from many indigenous and ancient traditions. The StarHouse has evolved into a multi-purpose cultural and community space for gatherings and workshops ranging from musical concerts to workshops to diverse cultural events to men's and women's empowerment circles and to universal dances for peace. See www.TheStarHouse.org. He also co-founded with his wife, Lila, the Healing Dreams Retreat in Tasmania, Australia (see www.healingdreams.com.au).

David has published writings on several subjects including "The Scythe Book: Mowing Hay, Cutting Weeds, and Harvesting Small Grains with Hand Tools", and "War in Heaven: Accessing Myth Through Drama", a book about mythic theatre. He has co-authored several nationally produced plays with his wife, Lila, the most recent being My Magdalene (winner of Moondance Festival 2004, Best Script), and Darwin in the Dreamtime. He is the co-author with William Bento and Robert Schiappacasse of "Signs in the Heavens: A Message for Our Time," wherein two comets' crossing at the Eye of Medusa (Algol) posed the question - what is the message of this perfect cross intersecting at this most challenging star in the heavens? David regularly offers Star Wisdom 101 and 202 courses at The StarHouse.
