Dark Moon Honeycomb

Dear beloved sister,

You are invited to join us for the most delicious, nourishing, deeply connected, prayerful, new moon women’s magic we can possibly create.

Every new/dark moon we will gather at Blooming Echo to create a powerful vortex of feminine embodiment, prayer, relaxation and nourishment, deepening our connection with self care, with sisters and with Spirit.

Join us for the Dark Moon HoneyComb.

This is a mix of mystery school, ancestral tending, embodiment, body care, sisterhood, spiritual practice and deep yin nourishment that we have been yearning for.  We’re doing it.  And it will be glorious, moist, restful, ecstatic.  

This is an in-real-life, in-person, off-line, outside social media, women-in-nature, light worshiping, blessing the waters, singing our ancestral songs, luxuriating in our bodies and togetherness, sharing tears and joy, shaking-it-all-out kind-of-offering.

Each month Jolyn Hope will lead us in a delicious trance-like dance exploration of an aspect of our evolutionary ancestry.  We will dip into our pre-human consciousness, drawing connection and vitality from the history of our very own cells, all the way back to the ocean.

While every month will be different, we will always make time and space for massage, tending to our bodies, deeply nourishing our yin by sharing bodywork and luscious lotion and oils.

We will create grief altar magic, building a throne for the unique energetic aspect of the month’s lunar goddess, creating space to rage, grieve, laugh, cry, celebrate, sing, rest and abide.

We will spend time exploring different relational technologies like Circling, Quaker Meeting for worship, Mirror Council and forum.

We will pray with cedar and sacred fire, for the world and our lives, planting seeds for our children and future earth.

We will have opportunities to be in plant medicine ritual together.

We will have time to just be, to lay our bodies on the earth and breathe.

We invite collaborations and will have time and space for you to offer your gifts, whether that be sound baths, breathwork, essential oils, song, dance, improv, storytelling, etc.  Yes! Exciting!

The Dark Moon HoneyComb is also in a reciprocal echoing relationship with the Full Moon Men’s Gathering (“Wolf Pack”) at Blooming Echo.  Informing and gifting each other through the land we plan to build a lover’s shrine, a place to feed our partnerships and make prayers for love, and we have yet to see what forms this echoing will bring forth (personally I’m hoping it’s a wood fired sauna and hot tub!).

We do have limited space, so please, sign up early!  

We value coherence and consistency so we do have slots open for discounted membership.  This means, you intend to come to all of them and are ready and willing to pay up front/commit to a payment plan.

We are aiming to keep this affordable! For all of the facilitation, prep and infrastructure that this takes we are only asking $50 for the day for members.

We also understand life is full!  Drop in is $65 for the day.

We do also have slots open for work trade; help setting up, help with strike etc.   

Nourishment!  Please pack yourself a picnic lunch.  A wholesome, seasonal, deliciously nourishing dinner will be provided for a small fee, if you want to partake.

The main course of this offering will be Saturdays from 10:30–5:30. 

If you can, we invite and encourage you to stay into the evening to keep the deep juice flowing by sharing dinner, singing and prayers by the fire, and even spending the night in the dome.  Sunday morning, those of us who sleep over will enjoy breakfast, making offerings to the spring, and have sweet and slow juicy time on the land unfolding ourselves.  

Sunday a Sweat Lodge is offered for families by the beautiful and amazing Chayo and Techpa, so stay for that too, have your partner bring your kids (if you have) and enjoy a full weekend of sacred time.
