Description

Solstice Ceremony Indigenous Medicine is the most ancient Path known and traversed by humanity for the acquisition of wisdom, knowledge and healing for one's community, nation, planet and self. Via the vehicles of Indigenous song, movement, prayer and music, we journey to and explore landscapes and Sacred geographies that traditional peoples from diverse cultures have frequented for millennia. Undertaken with specific intent and purpose, we encounter and acquaint ourselves with the Spirits and powerful denizens of these realms- our Allies, Benefactors and Guardians - to learn and partake of the Medicine they have to offer. It is an experience steeped in Spirit, Mystery and Magic. In honour and acknowledgement of the approaching Summer Solstice, join us at The Center SF for a Special Ceremony conducted by Chief Phillip in celebration of the the shift from the Spring Emergence to the season when the Sun's intensity and illumination are at its zenith.
