About this Event
✨ Cacao Ceremony
Led by experienced medicine women Jazz LeiAmora and Esmeralda Gómez Saavedra, this sacred cacao ceremony draws from ancient Mayan and Aztec traditions. Cacao, known as the "Food of the Gods," is revered for its ability to open the heart, foster creativity, and deepen emotional connection.
As we gather in this ceremonial space, we will honor the spirit of cacao, using it as a gentle guide for reflection, clarity, and connection. The ritual will invite you to meditate, release what no longer serves you, and open your heart to the new possibilities the year holds.
🎶 Live Music
Let the healing melodies of Esmeralda Gómez Saavedra, Tupac Saavedra, and Jazz LeiAmora transport you to a place of deep connection and renewal. Their music, rooted in ancient traditions and infused with soul, will weave a tapestry of sound that uplifts and heals.
Our live medicine music invites participation—whether through singing, listening, or simply feeling the vibrations—and is a reminder of the power of communal connection and shared intention.
🌑 New Moon & Chinese New Year Energy
The New Moon is a time of introspection and renewal, offering us a blank canvas to set intentions and manifest our dreams. Paired with the energy of the Chinese, or Lunar New Year, this ceremony is a unique opportunity to align with the cosmos and create a new chapter.
We will share insight into the power of the year of the Wood Snake, and its invitation into renewal, transformation, wisdom, and continuous growth.
Through meditation and reflection, we will harness this potent energy to let go of the past, center ourselves in the present, and plant seeds for the future. This is a sacred time to align our inner world with the cycles of nature, fostering balance and harmony within.
🔔 Harmony Works Sound Bath and Gong Journey
We will close the evening with a transformative sound bath led by The Harmony Works Team, featuring the deep, resonant tones of our deluxe multi-Gong set up.
This powerful sound healing practice allows for deep relaxation, insight, and energetic alignment. The vibrations will help integrate the intentions set during the ceremony, leaving you in a state of profound peace and clarity.
