June 2013 Event
Carried by the Light"
Shamanic Ritual with Jon Rasmussen
Friday, June 28th, 7:30 pm

Just back from a powerful trip to Peru with great ceremony and insights, local shaman Jon Rasmussen will be leading a summer ritual with a guided shamanic journey. A big message that came through during his recent Peruvian excursion is that we are being held and looked after, and we only need to accept and fully receive what is going on in our lives, including the painful experiences, in order to make it more quickly and gracefully through with the help of our guides. Jon will develop  this theme of accepting and growing though our experiences in this talk and guided ritual. The summer solstice is traditionally a time for celebrating the triumph of light over darkness. It is a time of healing, cleansing and renewal. A time to clean out old unnecessary baggage. A time to create new inner and outer space, free of clutter and excess.
