Beltane Fire Ceremony - Awaken your passion!

Date & Time: Wednesday 30th April  @6.30pm Location: Bourne End Library

£20 Booking Eventbrite HERE 

Beltane Cacao Ceremony - Ignite your Passion, Awaken your Spirit

Beltane means ‘Bright Fire’ and celebrates casting off the dark and embracing the start of summer. It truly is the festival of fertility, as nature right now is testament to. Our ancestors would celebrate the start of summer by lighting fires to cultivate the sun and the light. In our present day culture we have May Day when Morris dancers and maypoles are central to the festivities. It is also the time when the Green man walks the Earth, and it is the start of waxing cycle of the moon which will energise the circle and and your intentions. Come drink cacao, awaken, and ignite your heart under the sacred fire of Beltane. All over 18 welcome.

A circle represents infinity and equality. We will explore what is happening in the Cosmos and on the planet and invest time in healing our wounds and making sense of our feelings.  The New Moon is the time for manifesting our dreams and desires, and the Full Moon is the time to release, forgive and offer gratitude. 


These events will be held over Facebook Live and Zoom. (There is no requirement to say anything and you can choose whether you wish to have your camera on or off if attending via Zoom).


The circles will run along these lines:

  • Open circle sharing
  • Meditation or journey 
  • Closing tarot card reading


The circles are non-religious and based on shamanic practices. They are designed to help with relaxation, reduce anxiety and fear, heal the hurt of this current time and are a good place to feel connected with like-minded souls.

Celtic Wheel of the Year - Cacao Ceremonies Celebrating the 8 Sabbats & Moon Phases

Celtic Wheel of the Year - Cacao Ceremonies Celebrating the 8 Sabbats & Moon Phases

 The cacao ceremony will be a sacred space where you are welcome to come and sit and take part in whatever way is right for you.  Cacao is a powerful superfood and plant medicine.  (If you are on SSRIs or anti psychotics, pregnant or breastfeeding or have blood pressure issues please reach out and discuss the cacao with me).  

 

Feel free to join the event with or without cacao.  If you wish to have cacao you can order it from me or direct from Keith’s Cacao. I have a special code that you can use. Please see the cacao page, or contact me for details.  Cacao is a gentle plant medicine that meets you where you are, opening your heart and guiding you to where you need to heal the wounds. She shows you the inner work that needs attending to.  Cacao is psycho active (not psychedelic) and helps you listen to your body and connect with your inner wisdom. She helps release emotions and process them so we can heal.  All online circles are advertised on Eventbrite and Facebook.
