A Love Donation of $25 to cover expenses for supplies, beverages,snacks and planning.
No one will be turned away for lack of funds. Please email me at transform@ajoyouslifecounseling.com if you would like to attend but need to make a smaller donation.
On a beautiful piece of property facing west in the foothills of Boulder, we will join in community to honor and reflect the light within ourselves and each other as we bring in the energy of the summer solstice and with intention, harness it to support growth, joy and abundance in our lives this summer season.
We will engage in a fire ceremony, personal reflections, and community games to cultivate the child in us all and there will be offerings of song, dance and music as well as poetry and inspirational text. As you arrive, each person will make a flower crown with flowers and herbs that are traditionally used in the Celtic traditions to honor the sun and its rise in the northern hemisphere.
Special Iced Herbal teas traditionally served at the summer solstice r as well as fruit salad and cookies will be offered.
There will be a bonfire where we will light the solstice torch and burn away all that no longer serves us as we step towards the light.
