About the event
Dear friends,
You are warmly invited to celebrate the Winter Solstice in a special way!
Together, we will welcome the new season with purpose, attune to the wisdom of winter, connect with our inner light, celebrate with songs and cultivate heartfelt human connections.
WHAT WE WILL DO:
Winter Solstice Ritual: A ritual inspired by pagan and shamanic practices. We will honour the Sun & the Earth in their cosmic dance and attune to the wisdom of winter. With the help of the drum and objects found in nature, we will connect to the slower rhythm of winter and our bodies. In this meditative state, we will embrace the silence and stillness within, and connect with our inner light. We will then take a moment in silence to set intentions for the new season, draw an oracle card and close with a sharing.
Kirtan (Mantra Singing): Kirtan is the practice of chanting mantras (in Sanskrit, English & other languages) in a group with live music. The word mantra means “a tool for the mind”, a meditative way to harness the active mind through the repetition of sacred sounds and invocations. Kirtan opens our throat chakra and expands our heart, which helps us cultivate devotion to something higher than ourselves and connect to unconditional love, bliss, joy and inner freedom. It is a great way to connect with one's voice, creativity and inner world. No prior singing or musical experience is required!
THIS EVENT IS FOR YOU IF YOU:
Wish to reconnect to the seasons of the Earth and to your inner cycles.
Are curious to learn about the esoteric & symbolic significance of the Winter Solstice.
Want to participate in a pagan/animist ritual.
Are ready to surrender and attune to the slower rhythms of winter and your body.

Long to celebrate this sacred day with a spiritual family of like-minded souls.
