The Season of Beltane is the midway point of the March Equinox and the June Solstice, signaling that Summer is arriving here in the Northern Hemisphere. The days are growing longer as Mother Nature’s vibrancy is palpable. This Season beckons us to come fully alive…
You are called to tend to your inner garden by nurturing what feels INSPIRING and brings a GREATER sense of Self-LOVE, therefore cultivating your capacity to be a LOVING PRESENCE for your family, commUNITY, and the world.
Our Beltane CELEBRATION is coinciding with May 4th, PLAYfully known as ‘May the Fourth Be With You.’ WE are embracing this MAGICAL CONVERGENCE as an opportunity to coCREATE a Galactic Beltane gathering complete with a Drum Meditation, Ecstatic Dance experience, Beltane Fire, and BELOVED CommUNITY! Come dressed in your favorite Galactic themed costume (or not) and continue to integrate your Eclipse experience under the stars, dancing with Mother Earth, as WE SOW THE SEEDS OF LOVE for ourSelves and ALL SENTIENT LIFE!
“So it is that you, the children of the Sun, are now being bathed in the waters of remembrance, prepared as rainbow warriors to fulfill the promise of the new and ancient myth. By simply anchoring love's presence on Earth, you lovingly draw down the mantle of the gods, sending waves of healing and love throughout Gaia's eagerly receptive body. As you emerge in this time, your gifts awaken and empower others. Utilizing the tools of laughter, song, dance, humor, joy, trust, and love, you are creating the powerful surge of transformation that will transmute the limitations of the old myth of duality and separation, birthing the miracle of unity and peace on Earth.
Utilize your gifts on behalf of Gaia. In a supernova of consciousness, Gaia and her children will ascend in robes of light, forming a luminous light body of love, to be reborn among the stars! The mythic call has been sounded. The great quest has begun. Awaken, rainbow warriors, Sun runners, luminous beings from the galactic alliances, federations, and councils! Ancient skywalkers, newly formed in this moment, stand in the beauty and power of your true identity as love's gift to Gaia. Set aside self doubt. You are a divine child of the Sun! Go where your heart draws you to share your great gifts. Surrender to the magic and the light. The miracle will be manifested on Earth. Remember, we dance and sing here for the One Heart!”-excerpt from ‘The Mythic Call’ by Ariel Spilsbury and Michael Bryner

On a personal note, 2024 is ILLUMINATING the 13th year of my personal journey of EMBODYING the path of a Shamanic practitioner. I AM deeply called to share the teachings which are near and dear to my heart and Soul as they continue to enrich my life and offer me the INSPIRATION and COURAGE to FLOW with the WINDS of CHANGE with a felt sense of the AWE and MAGIC of this human journey.
Shamanic WISDOM is the oldest SPIRITUAL tradition known to humanKIND. It is cross-cultural, inclusive, and steeped in expansive, yet practical traditions. You needn’t ‘believe’ a certain dogma or follow any particular religious ‘rules’ to participate. You are a human being living on Mother Earth at this moment in ‘time’-YOU BELONG. YOU ARE WELCOME HERE.
In the SPIRIT of the year of 8, I AM offering 8 different IN PERSON immersion experiences which are ALIGNING with the theme of ‘Making PEACE with IMPERMANENCE’. Each PLAYshop will be exploring the particular Season WE are experiencing as a Collective in accordance with the cycles of Mother Earth. You are welcome to attend 1, several, or ALL of the gatherings. Each one will be unique and highly experiential. The INTENTION for these gatherings is for you to have a TRANSFORMATIVE experience while WE are TOGETHER and for you to gather many practical and EMPOWERING tools to carry you through the SHIFTS of EVOLution you are navigating both personally and Collectively.
Immersion experiences will be held at the Serrano Sanctuary (aka Frida’s Casita) in Hudson Bend in Northwest Austin.
The Making PEACE with IMPERMANENCE Immersion experiences might include:
-Teachings pertaining to the particular season WE are navigating
-Mindfulness practices
-Shamanic journeying with the drum and recorded music
-Song and Dance
