About this Event
Equinox Blessings! Join us at the Star House as we deepen our understanding of the equalization of shadow and light--both outwardy in the world during this time of equal light and darkness, and internally in our own psychological and emotional experience of balancing our own shadow and light.
Light and darkness are interdependent in this realm of polarity. One cannot exist without the other. Shadow work is equally as important as light work. Embracing this concept and finding the balance, or harmony, within the cycles is key to healthy navigation, progression, and expansion along our journey.
To aid in this exploration, we will utilize several of the most potent, playful, and heart-opening modalities to deepen our embodiment and understanding of shadow and light. We will commune with the medicina of Cacao, a sacred delectable Central & South American heart-opener. We will attune and explore through meditation, authentic relating, movement, and chanting--all culminating in an integrative sound journey to seal in the experience.
All in the most incredible geometrical cosmically aligned sanctuary in the region: The StarHouse.
Flow of evening:
- Meditation: drop us into our bodies, the space, our intentions, and to deepen into the concept of shadow and light withis us and all around us
- Cacao Ceremony: Commune with the delectable Mayan medicine to connect deeper with the equalization of shadow and light, and to clarify intentions for our journey
- Authentic Relating: Consciously prompted, vulnerable and safe sharing with others (either 1:1 or small groups) around our concepts of shadow and light in our personal experience
- Movement and Dance: Playfully explore what it means to embody the energy of both shadow, light, and the interplay of both through movement of the entire body, inspired by creative & evocative music
- Kirtan (chanting song circle): We will integrate and further explore the role of light and shadow through the ancient modality of chanting through divine archetypes
- Integrative Sound Journey: Breathe & receive a sound journey designed to guide us through a reflective sonic portal, allowing for yet another opportunity to connect to aspects of shadow and light in a gentle and supported contemplative manner
- Integration Circle: An opportunity to share about your experience and to witness others in theirs
About Taragápe (Jeremy Colbert)
Taragápe is a name that implies cosmic compassionate universal love. Through this energetic signature, Jeremy seeks to serve as a hollow vessel for diverse vibrations to emerge. Taragápe is an integrative journey through sound--utilizing the handpan, guitar, vocals, as well as native flute, kalimba, charango, harmonium, singing bowls, and more. Finely tuned musicianship and deeply contemplative compositions create a sonic environment for a relaxing reflective remembrance of inner essence.
Jeremy is a true facilitator and space-holder, through and through. His passion and goal is to create a safe and solid container for those to drop into a deeper place of presence and authenticity, with themselves and with others, to allow for deeper sovereign reflective insight and healing to occur naturally. Music is always at the core of Jeremy's interpretation of how the natural and diverse energetics of this world play out, and will, along with the wisdom of nature, serve as the compass for all of Jeremy's offerings.
Jeremy holds a degree in music education and has 11 years of teaching experience in 1:1 and group settings. He is a certified sound healer, as well as a certified integration coach to support those on the path of ceremonial and therapeutic Plant Medicines, or Earth Medicines--and facilitates and hosts retreats for those seeking to deepen their relationship with Earth Medicine.
Arrival Instructions:
Please arrive 15 minutes early at 6:15, as you will need to park in the upper lot which is a 5 minute walk to the StarHouse, and there is always time needed to settle into the space before we begin at 6:30.
From the upper lot, follow the path that begins with the three wooden pillars. The path also intersects the road leading down the hill to the StarHouse, so you can also walk along the road and then make a left onto the path.
Feel free to bring anything you would need to be comfortable for the sound journey, though the StarHouse has plenty of backjacks, yoga mats, blankets, and pillows.
If you choose, feel free to bring your own mug for Cacao!
