A Soul-infused Elemental Journey into ‘What Now?’ September 2, 2023 with Lorenna Bousquet Kacera, Danielle Denichaud, Snappy Homefry As the wheel of Life turns and summer softly ushers in autumn, it is a precious moment to pause, reflect, harvest what has been and set new intentions for a new beginning. We ask: What now? What’s new waiting for me? What are my dreams and desires? How do I step into the realm of possibility with safety and trust? We offer this full-day experience as an opportunity to deepen into your wild and knowing heart through Elemental rituals, meditations and Earth connection.  Throughout history, Earth-centred societies engaged the power of ritual and the Elements’ teachings to guide them through the ‘terrible beauty’ of inevitable change with the highest and wisest clarity. Reconnecting to the sacred medicine of outer and inner nature offers space for visions given directly from Mother Earth so that we may see clearly the path forward and our part in the creation of the New Earth.  Clarity Quest Ceremony During this guided ceremony, we will awaken our connection with the Life-Giving Elements of Air, Fire, Water, Earth & Ether to activate our highest path forward clarity.

Re-Enchanting Your Life – with Darren Austin Hall, Lorenna & Shantree Kacera

event-images - dreaming-300px

RECONNECT * REVITALIZE * REMEMBER   June 24 & 25, 2023 One of the great themes of our shifting age is the sacred relationship between humans and Earth. Our ancient ancestors bridled the natural mysticism of the Earth with great devotion and care. In modern civilization, our deep bonds with the land have broken. With the rise of industrialization and materialist science, it has become a period of time denoted by writers, philosophers and artists as ‘the age of disenchantment.’ The disenchantment describes our loss of a primal, life-giving and life-saving essence we know as ‘wonder’ for this amazing creation we are a part of. A wonder that recognizes the ecology of the planet as profoundly alive, sentient and capable of being connected and communicated with in practical metaphysical ways. This living spiritedness is at the heart of our true nature. During this weekend, we shall be enthusing the re-enchantment of our world and our human selfhood through multi-dynamic practices, community activities and sacred revelry. Experience how living in the higher frequencies of Wonder awakens the love, insight,  compassion and strength needed to move artfully through personal and planetary transitions. We will spend time in deep communion with the spirits of … Read more

ManEarth: Fire & Water Sacred Balance

event-images - dreaming-300px

“For the last thousands of years, we have been in a great masculine imbalance. Now, for the first time, we have a chance to reach balance and stop this pendulum right in the middle. We must do that if we wish to survive.” ~ Ilarion (Larry) Merculieff, the Unangan (Aleut) wisdom keeper This imbalance is between the masculine (fire)  and feminine (water) principles. Fire is out of control causing a great drought of the sacred feminine principle on Earth. This workshop is an invitation to dive into the watery aspects of the sacred feminine in men. Why would you want to do this? The more feminine sensibilities of listening deeply,  being present, understanding the quieter rhythms and timings of things, sensing into circumstances, recognizing connection, intuition, valuing the unknown and embodiment are potent abilities available to all genders. The masculine’s dynamic fires when coupled with the free-flowing waters of feminine energy bring inner balance, peace,  self-healing, spiritual self-mastery and a new form of power that protects and serves all of Life.   While Fire is naturally vital, the high-stress demands of the industrial culture with its pressure for production, power and success have led to the depletion of many men’s life-force … Read more

Online – Conscious Relationship Couples Workshop:

Deepening Love & Connection We live in a time of great global change where the mythology of intimate relationships is being challenged and being reassembled into something more scrumptious than ever before.  Women and men passionate about reclaiming the joy of soulful, genuine love find that they can no longer rely on old roles and beliefs.

event-images - SHAMANU-MENTORSHIP-300sq

Earth-centred Empowerment Strategies for Absolutely Loving Your Life July 22 to October 8, 2023 A woman in her power is an amazing being. Embodying the elegant wild wisdom of Nature, she is naturally intuitive, intelligent, and compassionate. Confident in her choices, the connected woman stands for justice and the sacredness of all Life. With Gaian wisdom awake in her bones, she listens to her body’s messages and walks in solidarity with the Earth. True to herself and others, she knows when to draw the line and when to open her great heart. Liberated by trust in her inner ‘Yes’ – and ‘No’ – she is the great nurturer and vision-keeper for future generations.    Where does one find these wild beauties? Everywhere! Her light lives in all women like a fire that refuses to go out, despite the repression, indoctrination and injustice she has experienced over the centuries. Feminine power has waited patiently for her time to return. That time is now! This Mentorship is for women who want to feel lit up and excited again about getting out of bed in the morning. Who feel an underlying pressure – a ‘Call’-  to something new, more meaningful and fulfilling. Who wants … Read more

WomanEarth: Reclaiming Your Sacred Wild Feminine Life-force

Life-force is a power that we all possess. A natural and regenerative resource designed to bring health and happiness. When mindfully accessed, sustained and directed, it is the substance that allows the miracle of self-healing and spiritual self-mastery.  Also known as chi, prana, ovarian power or kundalini, it is a continuous flow of primordial energy that unifies humans, nature and the cosmos.  If we lived in an ideal world, uncluttered by insistent stress and a patriarchal directive,  women would be equally celebrated and supported to self-direct.  Life energy would flow freely and abundantly, and this workshop would not be necessary. But we don’t – at least not yet. For centuries women have been taught to believe that their role is to unconditionally direct their Lifeforce energy to their families, communities and partners, leaving little power for themselves. While much of one’s giving emerges from a genuine feminine spirit, much doesn’t.   Throughout the weekend, we dive into the ‘how’ of embracing your sacred wild Life-force, reclaiming your power to navigate the course of your future and why this is essential for the healing and fulfillment of your life and the healing of the Earth. We do this through a fluid dive … Read more
