“SPIRAL DANCE” (also known as the “Grapevine” and “Weaver’s Dance” according to Starhawk) is a neo-pagan dance. Standing in a circle, the hand-joined dancers move to form a spiral into a center point and then out again to form the circle. In dance rituals, the participants undertook to represent their god, creation and their journey on earth. The Spiral Dance is distinguished by its visionary mysticism and ecstatic experience, and by its emphasis on women and the Goddess (although it also brings in the God, similar to most forms of Wicca). The compass points are shown as women with their hair flowing out as in a dance.
