Description

This ancient tradition provides invaluable support for us to set our intentions for the next 6 months with guidance from the 4 directions This is an important time when a doorway opens that allows us to hear the guidance of the 4 Directions. This authentic Nahua Ceremony creates a space where you have the opportunity to make agreements with yourself and Spirit about what you need to lay down and leave behind and what your soul is longing to call in. This Ceremony brings awareness to what you're going to need to sacrifice or confront to fully step into this rich, juicy, gestational time. It is doing the deep work during this going-inward time that allows us to prepare fertile soil and make sure we have what we need for our lives to bear fruit this summer. Everyone has an opportunity to participate! Please arrive no later than 5:30 PM and plan on staying until the Ceremony concludes to help us hold this container in a way that is of benefit to all. Parking is limited so please plan on carpooling if you can. We have a beautiful space to gather around the fire! I encourage everyone to wear/ bring several layers and blankets to line your chairs to keep warm and a hot beverage. If you're wondering about toting that extra coat, hat, or blanket, I encourage you to bring it!!! It gets chilly here. Covid Considerations It is so important to continue our Ceremonies and offer opportunities for connection during this time. We also want to be mindful of one another's well-being. To that end, we are limiting the number of attendees to 12 plus the 4 Direction Holders. We ask that you wear your mask until seated. You are also welcome to keep your mask on for the duration of the Ceremony. If you are experiencing any Covid symptoms, or have been exposed to anyone with Covid within 10 days preceding the Ceremony, please do not attend and cancel your reservation via Eventbrite so your seat can be filled from the Wait List if we have one. Thanks so much for your help in our gathering for the Winter Solstice. image credit: Janie Olsen To offer events like these, we depend on everyone's generosity to cover costs of firewood, tarps for wood, Mailchimp, and our quirky but oh so necessary portapotty!
