Evolution of the Goddess: HARVEST & the Sturgeon Moon Sanctuary
Details:
Honor the sacred harvest beneath the Sturgeon Moon with ritual, movement, sound healing, and the wisdom of the Goddess. Evolution of the Goddess: HARVEST & the Sturgeon Moon Sanctuary Let us gather to celebrate the midpoint between Lammas and Mabon. The amber warmth of High Summer welcomes you to the heart of the season, as the golden sun soaks the earth with rays of ripeness, fulfillment, and grace. Evolution of the Goddess is a living ritual that celebrates the midpoint between Lammas and Mabon. Together, we'll take a sacred pause to honor the fullness of all we have grown this year. On Friday, August 28 , you are invited to step across the threshold for an evening of living ritual, honoring the bountiful beauty of the sacred harvest and abundant light. Beneath the illuminating gaze of the Sturgeon Full Moon, we gather in circle to soften the sharp edges of the modern world and remember the ancient, instinctual rhythms that live within our bones. The ancient medicine of the Sturgeon Moon is one of resilience and longevity, stirring the deeper, unseen emotional landscape of your psyche. Through a seamless weaving of trauma-informed neurosomatic reset, intuitive dance, vocal activation, and energy healing blended with the resonance of alchemy crystal singing bowls, together with the Goddess, we will create a sanctuary where your nervous system can completely exhale, where presence deepens, and where your true essence is given space to expand. This is a space for remembrance, empowerment, and transformation—a celebration of your true worth and embodied radiance. Together, we will flow with the living Goddess within, the stars, the moon, and one another. Guided by the Goddess and bathed in the full illumination of the moon, your facilitators, Kristen van Hoessen and Belinda Pearl, invite you to embrace your resilience, claim your inner harvest, and recognize the magic of your radiant wholeness. Space is held with immense intention and remains limited to preserve the sacred depth of our circle. Tickets: $55 Attendees are encouraged to bring a yoga mat and wear comfortable clothing suitable for movement. Facilitator Bios: Belinda Pearl Belinda discovered Yoga at a very young age, she was drawn to the healing aspect and mythology of Yoga.
