SUNDAY, DECEMBER 9
AYNI:
PERFECT RELATIONSHIP
10:30AM to ?
At the end of each year, we have a day of bringing ourselves into perfect relationship as we enter the new year. In this way, we can clear ourselves of engagements that were out of balance, energetically “settling our accounts.” It is important that we all step in now and no longer put off what we have long known we have to do. This ayni work gives you the opportunity to become clean and clear of any engagement that took you away from your original intent of being a Vessel of Light and being in service. This could be allowing what your Lower Self wanted rather than letting your Higher Self guide you. This could have taken many forms. Give yourself the gift of clarity and cleansing. In this way, you give the gift to others, beginning the new year clear and clean. When the work of the day is done, we go to a sacred fire ceremony that evening. Please be prepared to stay until the fire ceremony has ended. COST: $50.00 (includes workshop and two meals).
PHOENIX FIRE
February 14 – 17, 2008
Legend has it that the phoenix rises from the ashes of its own death. So it is important for us to rise from the past so that we may enter into Life once again. By honoring the Sacred Circle of Life-Death-Life, we use the experiences of the past to gain the gift of the present day. No longer is there a need to deny or flee from what has happened, for we come to know all that it has taught us. For that, we can be grateful because we can now be compassionate because we, too, have risen from the ashes of what was. Using ancient ceremony and ritual, including a special Phoenix fire ceremony, we spin in Life, while in the middle of Death throes. In this way, we have no need of fear, because we know we are actually rising from the ashes of our own Death into New Life.
Medicine Wheel
March 13 – 16
Show up and begin to live your life delightfully
In this two-year journey, meeting approximately four times per year in three-day weekends, about every three months apart, you travel through the four Cardinal Points of South, West, North, and East as well as the mid-directions of SouthWest, NorthWest, NorthEast, and SouthEast. In working with the mid-directions as well, this helps you to transition from one Cardinal Point to the next, lessening the possibility of getting caught in the confusing flow of transition from one point to another.
v You begin in the South, where you shed your past energetically through ancient ceremony of going within and releasing.
v Next, you move to the SouthWest, the place of healing your past by realizing underlying angers and fears that have, perhaps, limited or prevented you from complete healing.
v Onto the West, where Jaguar, with the help of Mama Killa, Mother Moon, guides you to where all those heavy energies are buried, so you can dig them up and transform them in the Light of Mama Killa, turning anger and fears into creative energy and play.
v You move into the NorthWest, where you clear away the residue of old beliefs that no longer serve, so that you can become true vessels for the greater good.
v You then go to the North, where you let go of old agreements, becoming open and still rather than empty and silent, embracing your heritage and destiny of The Light.
v In the NorthEast, you empty the vessel further of ego-engendered concepts, so that you can now embody the vision of who you are truly becoming.
v In the East, you fly as the Condor does, free and limitless, with the realization that you have always been flying, never falling.
v In the SouthEast, you come Full Circle, arriving at your source, your origins.
The group you will initially meet in the South will be the group that will continue this journey with you, as it will be closed to new members after the South.
