Honour the Winter Solstice with ritual, ceremony and sound.
Winter Solstice signifies mid-winter as we reach the depths of darkness, with the shortest day and longest night of the year. It also marks the beginning of Yuletide, the liminal void of in-between. The waning Yule moon carries us towards the Solstice, beckoning us into the shadows to listen and receive—a potent time for pause and reflection, to greet the dark and rest in the vastness of this space.
Join me to honour the dark and celebrate the emergent light with a candle-lit evening of restful rituals and receiving.
Upon arrival, feel the warm embrace of togetherness while savouring a cup of Ceremonial Cacao. This gentle yet potent plant elixir awakens something ancient and ritualistic within, allowing us to embrace this liminal phase while expanding our heart awareness—opening to our own medicine and creating fertile ground to receive vibrations of the Alchemy Crystal Singing bowls.
I will guide you through a gentle moving meditation, flowing with the breath to reflect your inner light and warmth; before descending into stillness to absorb the cacao and an intuitive sound journey.
Escape the pressures of this season to lay down and soften into winter’s cradle—an invitation for stillness and warming rituals to connect you with winter spirit.
What you’ll receive:
Gentle moving meditation to connect you with your inner realms
Radical Rest
Alchemy Crystal Sound Bath
Safe and sacred sharing circle
Cacao Ritual and healthy homemade snacks to finish
What is Cacao?
Cacao is chocolate in its rawest, purest form grown for ceremonial purposes, known for its heart opening warmth and sacred properties. Drinking Cacao is like being wrapped in the arms of our mother, her spirit is gentle and reassuring enabling you to dissolve any barriers to tune into your feeling heart.
Cacao is a plant medicine and should be honoured with ritual, that’s how you get the most from her. Considered a superfood, cacao is rich in minerals and vitamins and a magic ingredient theobromine, which connects you to your heart and awakens intuition.
*Contraindications
Ceremonial doses of Cacao are not recommended for those who take antidepressants (Cacao contains MAOI inhibitors), anyone who has a serious heart condition or takes heart medication, those who have high blood pressure or suffer from epilepsy.
Pregnant women should take a smaller, lower dose. If you’re unsure please consult your doctor for professional advice. In parts of the world where cacao is still used as medicine, it is given to mothers directly after birth as a blessing ritual and to help her regain strength and iron levels after birth.
