"...If
we are not in touch with our ground, our bodies, our passions and pleasures,
desires and unions, we have no fuel for our fire…. We see the power as
elsewhere, rather than feeling it within ourselves.” - Anodea Judith
At the darkest time of
the year, as we naturally turn inward, this weekend offers the opportunity to
retreat, reconnect and regenerate in the magical forest of Silver
Falls. Using the powerful tools of astrology, Sacred Story writing,
visualization and collage, we'll identify the stories we have been
telling about our power that no longer serve us. As we release the
past, we create space to uncover our desires, revitalize our passions,
and heighten the true expression of our authentic selves.
We'll explore the
position of Mars in our birth charts to gain insight into our inner Warrior,
identify resources and allies, and clarify our desires and heroic path. We'll
also look at the greater backdrop of cosmic influences during this period of
accelerated growth as we approach the end-date of the Mayan Calendar. How can
we navigate these momentous tides of collective change with power, purpose,
grace and joy?
