Join us for an evening of deep exploration of personal & spiritual growth. This evening, we will do a clearing ritual called limpias and explore shamanic journeying. Through guided meditation, and with the assistance of both, a shamanic drum and a 34” Chinese Rain Gong we will deepen our connection to the expanded worlds – or the multiverse.
Traveling both to the lower world – also known as the Ukhupacha (one’s interior realms; the place of the sub-conscious where things are hidden within our shadow-self and may be brought to light and transformed), and the upper world, also known as the Hanaqpacha (this place is known as the superior realm, the place of ascended masters, high teachers and beneficent ancestral beings) we will have a very rich evening of self inquiry and personal transformation.
To give space between these worlds, we will break bread together in the Kaypacha (Our physical Here and Now “reality”) We’ll do this by offering a time of fellowship & community and the participant will be offered a light vegetarian soup along with some delicicious bread and cheeses.
This beautiful evening will reap the benefit of exquisite beauty and all of the nature spirits that reside amongst the area of the Hillside Community Church’s sacred space.
We invite all levels of participants – those that are brand new to shamanism and journey work ,or folks that have been on a medicine path for years. It is for everyone.
This work has the potential to be extremely transformative and profound in a short period of time. Coherently, we exist in the three worlds as soul, the journey work provides an expedited key to a gateway that has always existed. It is truly soul nurturing work.
What holds this work together so impeccably is the use of a Pachakuti Mesa – a shamanically empowered altar (originated by Peruvian Healer-Curandero, don Oscar Miro-Quesada). This powerful altar creates a pristine container for individuals to do their personal growth work by being deeply supported by nature spirits. It is a portal to other worldly realms and a cosmic composting center!
If you feel stuck, lost, isolated…this work may assist in a shift that may bring you back into wholeness. If you are a curious seeker – this might be just the prescription you are looking for. If you want to be with folks that are on a quest for deeper connection to spirit, this is the place.
