Hoopcamp 2014

The ancient peoples understood that for something to be born, something must die. The wheel of year, the cycles of the seasons, the rise and fall of the sun and moon in the heavens, as well as the wheel of the elements and the waxing and waning of the moon phases - all provide us with a tangible, felt and embodied guide - a way and a “map that fits”. Join Shakti Sunfire in this hoop circle Mystery School to unearth the magic of wielding and submitting to the forces of cyclical Nature. Space, Air, Fire, Water and Earth, the ascendent and the descendent path, all allow us access into the underground river of creativity. We will discuss how we can use this access to expand our sense of true self and soul in service of global change.
