Many of us are called to be Elders, or we are already serving as Elders, yet we feel alone and ill-equipped for the role. In our youth-oriented culture, Elders are often not well regarded and not given a role to play.

And we suffer for it, as Elders are the bridge that spans the generations. They carry the stories of our Ancestors and the wisdom that has been passed down to them. They have a lifetime of knowledge to share, and they can give guidance grounded in real experience.

Fortunately, we are in the midst of a reawakening. The value of Elders—and the crying need for them—is again being seen in this troubled world, and in our troubled lives. This Council of Elders and soon-to-be Elders is being called together by Lety Seibel and Tamarack Song to provide both the example of Elders to emulate and training in the unique skills that would be helpful in serving as an Elder.

Along with learning the roles of Elders and guidance in how to serve, Elders from our culture and a number of traditional cultures come to sit in Council with us. They share stories of how Elders function in their communities, they teach how to serve as an Elder by example, and they address questions from a place of deep knowing.

Let’s start by clearing up two myths:

A person chooses to become an Elder. We are all born with our Elder already within us, along with the other four stages in our lives: Child, Crafter/Builder, Mentor, and Ancestor.
There is a particular age for becoming an Elder. Sometimes a younger than average person is called to serve as an Elder out of need. Others who reach typical Elder age are not ready or able to serve, yet they are respected as Elders.
Everyone who feels called to this Elder Council is invited to participate, regardless of age.
