Rooting to Rise: New Moon Ceremony, Meditation, & Sharing Circle

*Doors open at 4:50*

Depending on how many people attend, the event may go until 8:00 or 8:30.

As our bodies, minds, and spirits awaken to spring delights, we are invited to gather in community to tend to our own soul’s reflection of the new moon—the final one of spring 2026! We are encouraged to showcase the earth’s expression of spring and newness through our own practices of rooting down and rising unapologetically. We gather to reflect on our shadows, and the themes and experiences we explored in the previous seasons. We treasure the gift of life by pausing to honor these aspects of our being and choosing to truly see them.

🌿🐦‍🔥

We become ready to shed the pieces that no longer feed our commitment to vitality, renewal, and rebirth, and we become more fluid in our rise to full expression and expansion. We prepare ourselves for the great birthing of our wildest hearts, so our souls may fully exhale and rejoice in the summer. Let us meet new people and discover new versions of ourselves. Together, let us reach for the summer breath of unbridled celebration, friendship, passion, creativity, compassion, gratitude, and joy.

✨ In this tribute to the final new moon of the season, we bare sacred witness to each other, inspiring our continued emergence from winter’s chrysalis. Today’s tapestry is a reiki-infused weave of guided meditation, reflection prompts, themed group activities, partner work, meditation-in-motion, sacred dream work, and integration. Seekers (participants) are invited to come as they are. *Wherever we are in the earth cycle, let’s meet each other there* ✨

🫖I will prepare a caffeine-free herbal tea.
