Puberty Rites
Few of us were guided through this difficult transition
in any sensible way as the religious mores of our culture around self-empowerment
and sexuality have been an absurd travesty. This period of great change
and growth in our life sets a blueprint for how we learn to deal with
change and challenge throughout the rest of our life. To reveal and heal
this place is a crucial step on our path to self-empowerment.
We will create a Rite of Passage with the aim of re-experiencing puberty
transition in a healthy life-affirmative way which heals left-over wounds.
We will work with the Lovers Medicine Wheel to see into all the loving
possibilities of a balanced culture, and we will Journey to retrieve
soul energy trapped and lost at this time, energy that can be unlocked
from habitual patterns and learned negative beliefs.
Quest for Vision
Having worked healing magic on the past we embark on a traditional vision
quest to seek guidance and illumination on the future. The traditional
vision quest consists of three phases.
Severance - separating from the stuff of
everyday life. For this we work with you individually to help you prepare
practically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually.
Transition -
alone in nature fasting and being with the
infinity of existence.
Re-incorporation -
the return bearing gifts of unknown things
which help to reveal your Sacred Dream and
access the energy and determination to live
it - regardless. We tell our stories around
the fire and in so doing, the lessons show
themselves as each person’s story reflects
upon everyone else’s. It is as we manifest
our Sacred Dream-life into the everyday that
we become part of the Universe’s Give-Away
and can begin to live from the simplicity of
Mother Earth’s abundance.

Joy
and Happiness
Our real ‘power’ is about how we ‘sit’ in the
truth of ourselves and how we giveaway what we have. It is in what we
give to others, to the collective, in service of the unfoldment of All-That-Is
that brings us the greatest joy and happiness. This is the real meaning
of love - the act of giving for the benefit of others. And who are others?
They are ‘other ourselves’.
