Winter Solstice is a major turning point within the seasonal cycle. Marking the beginning of Winter, it is during the darkest time of the year that a flame is ignited. And a new light cycle is born.
This is a slow and still celebration centred around the element of fire. Fire has been with us for millions of years, and it is deeply embedded in our bodies, energy and consciousness. By connecting with fire, we are taken to the beginnings of time, to that dark cave where the fire is burning.
Spending the Winter Solstice around the fire in slow-tempo, stillness and engaged attention, we charge the cauldron of dark with light and heat. And our bodies are illuminated by the depth and influence of a sparkling fire.
Some guidance it's delivered throughout the day by Raquel Jesus. She will lead you into simple, practical and meditative chi kung exercises, nature-walks and in the exploration of fire-making.
Together with the natural elements of the forest where this event takes place, we are presented with a unique opportunity of immersion in the transformational forces at work during the beginning of winter.
