As the veil between worlds thins and the year’s dark half begins, join us for a deeply spiritual and introspective Shinrin Yoku -Forest BathAs the veil between worlds thins and the year’s dark half begins, join us for a deeply spiritual and introspective Shinrin Yoku (Forest Bathing) experience in celebration of Samhain . This sacred event, rooted in Drudaoshian tradition, invites you to honor the ancestors, connect with the spirits of the land, and embrace the transformative energies of the season.
Samhain , often known as the Witches’ New Year, is a time of reflection, remembrance, and renewal. It marks the end of the harvest season and the beginning of winter, a period when the boundaries between the physical and spiritual realms are at their most permeable. During this special Drudaoshian Shinrin Yoku, we will walk in reverence through the forest, attuning ourselves to the rhythms of nature and the wisdom of our ancestors. What to Expect:
- Guided Ancestral Walk : Move mindfully through the forest, pausing to connect with the trees and the spirits that dwell within them. This walk is designed to attune you to the energies of Samhain, a time when the ancestors are closest and their wisdom most accessible.
- Ancestral Invocation Ritual : Participate in a sacred ceremony to call upon your ancestors. Offer them your gratitude, seek their guidance for the coming year, and honor their presence in your life.
- Communion with the Spirits of the Land : Find a quiet spot to sit and meditate, opening yourself to the whispers of the Earth and the spirits of the land. This meditation will help you align with the natural cycles and embrace the transformative power of Samhain.
- Sacred Fire Ceremony : Gather around a sacred fire to release what no longer serves you, symbolizing the end of the old year. Write down your intentions for the new cycle and offer them to the flames, inviting transformation and renewal.
- Closing the Circle of Protection : Conclude our time together with a circle of protection, sealing the energies of the day and ensuring a safe passage through the dark half of the year. We will give thanks to the ancestors, the Earth, and the spirit world for their guidance and blessings. Who Should Attend:
