Symbol, Compassion, and Sacred Lineage

Featuring teachings on Melchizedek & Quan Yin

This series investigates a selection of beings referred to as Ascended Masters—archetypal teachers associated with wisdom, compassion, or spiritual transformation across traditions. This month we investigate the teachings and practices transmitted to us through Melchizedek and Quan Yin.

In this collaborative presentation, we approach these figures from complementary perspectives: lived spiritual experience alongside historical and symbolic study.

Melchizedek -

Explore the mysterious biblical figure of Melchizedek, a priest-king who appears briefly in scripture yet carries deep symbolic significance across Jewish, Christian, and esoteric traditions. This portion will examine Melchizedek as representative of an ancient, embodied, and eternal priesthood. A priesthood which offers us reconciliation with Nature, with Source, with the divine whole.

Quan Yin -

Discover the presence of Quan Yin, widely honored as the embodiment of compassion. This portion will explore Quan Yin as a living symbol of mercy and responsiveness to suffering, including her historical roots in the bodhisattva Avalokiteśvara.

Themes we will explore:

-What are “Ascended Masters,” and how are they understood across traditions?

-The symbolic role of Melchizedek in Western spiritual history

-Quan Yin and Avalokiteśvara as expressions of compassion

-How these figures can serve as mirrors for inner development

This gathering is offered as a space for curiosity, contemplation, and respectful dialogue. Whether you approach these figures as literal beings, archetypes, or spiritual metaphors, you are welcome.

Tracking is the art of learning how to see, feel, and understand energy.… with yourself, within the field around you, and with others - with permission. 

In this class, you will learn how to track energy in real time using both your intuitive senses and shamanic tools. We will explore how to gather clear information and how to trust what you are perceiving.

You will practice:

• Using journey tracking as a tool for deeper insight and guidance
• Working with a felt sense as a primary way of receiving information
• Tracking energy for yourself and another person through partnered work
• Tracking through the tapestry: reading patterns, themes, and energetic threads
• Learn safety protocols and boundaries of tracking energy in sacred space

          Working with a tracking animal guide that aligns with you

We work with strong energetic boundaries and clear protocols so tracking stays safe, respectful, and in right relationship. This creates a grounded and ethical container where you can develop your skills with clarity and integrity.

This is a hands-on, experiential class. You will practice tracking in a safe, guided container where you can build confidence in your own perception. Over time, tracking becomes a foundational skill for Shamanic healing, decision-making, and understanding what is truly happening beneath the surface.

This class is open to beginners and practitioners alike. No experience is needed, only a willingness to listen, feel, and explore. 

You are warmly invited into a sacred circle of sharing, practice, and direct experience. I look forward to meeting you in circle and remembering our tools together.

Under the Flower Moon, we meet the hidden petals of ourselves, the roots of our shadows, and step into the courage to be seen.

The Flower Moon is nature’s reminder that what grows in darkness is not lost, it’s preparing to rise.

This night is an invitation to honor both: the unseen parts that shape us, and the light that longs to emerge through us. Through guided breathwork, somatic bodywork, and reflective journaling, we’ll move through the layers of self — the soil, the stem, the unfolding.

We’ll breathe into the roots of what’s been buried, soften what’s been held tight, and awaken the hidden light that’s always been within.

To ground this experience into the physical:

• You’ll receive a packet of wildflower seeds to plant — a living reminder of your growth and transformation.
• You’ll also draw an oracle card to take home, a message to guide your next season of expansion. 

This is a journey of descent and emergence. Of shadow and light. Of remembering that both are sacred.

Breathwork · Somatic Bodywork · Journaling · Oracle Guidance 

Take-home wildflower seeds & oracle message included

Mirror Talk It’s Time to Be Seen,Come meet the version of you that’s ready to be seen. For so long, too long, I was scared of being seen.
Of using my voice. Of taking up space. I felt silenced.

Do I have your attention? Have you ever felt that too?
Like there were parts of you that stayed quiet…
not because they didn’t exist, but because they didn’t feel safe to be seen? This space is for that version of you.

It is time to step into our power.
Time to take ourselves back.
Time to see ourselves.

Through reflection, movement, and embodiment,
you’ll be guided back to yourself,
not to become someone new,
but to finally meet who’s been there all along.

This is a free-flow space to move, feel, and express, no choreography needed.
Come as you are.
All genders welcome

Your space is waiting

What if the experiences of your life are not random, but part of a deeper story unfolding within you?

Across cultures and throughout history, humans have told the same great story…. the Hero/Heroine's Journey. This timeless map of transformation describes how we are called into growth, face challenges, meet guides, and ultimately return with new wisdom to share with our community.

In this Mystic Wisdom Circle, we will explore the universal Archetypes that appear along this journey. These Archetypal energies such as: the seeker, the mentor, the healer, the shadow, the mystic, and the elder. They show up in myths, spiritual traditions, and in our own lives as we move through different stages of growth and awakening.

Through open conversation, reflection, and exploration of symbolic tools such as the Tarot’s Major Arcana, we will look at how these archetypal patterns shape our personal journeys and help us understand the deeper meaning behind life’s transitions.

Explore:
• The Hero’s Journey as a map of personal transformation
• The universal archetypes that appear throughout myth and human experience
• How archetypal patterns show up during different stages of life
• The archetypal journey represented in the Tarot’s Major Arcana
• Recognizing the guides, challenges, and turning points along your own path

This is a shared circle of exploration where stories, insights, and perspectives are welcome. Together we will reflect on the deeper patterns that shape our lives and the wisdom they reveal.

Bring your curiosity and your voice as we gather in circle for an evening of meaningful conversation and reflection.

This is a space to face ourselves, support one another, and step into a more authentic way of living and relating.

Arrow Of Truth-

Host- Crystal Steele

Cost $33

 There are nights when the sky opens…

and something ancient within you answers.

Under the rare light of the Blue Moon, we gather in a field of movement, fire, and remembrance—

where truth is not something you seek, but something you become.

Guided by the wild, untamed spirit of Sagittarius, this ceremony is an invitation to step beyond the edge of who you’ve been…

and into the vastness of who you are becoming.

 The Journey-

* Ecstatic Dance

We begin in rhythm and release—

feet on the earth, body in motion,

letting the old stories loosen their grip.

* Meditation & Breathwork: The Archer Within

Beneath an infinite sky, you meet yourself as the archer—

feeling the pull of what has been held,

and the quiet knowing of what is ready to be set free.

The arrow is drawn…

and something within you shifts.

*Arrow Talisman Craft

With intention woven through your hands,

a living talisman to carry your becoming forward.

A Ceremony of Heart, Harvest, and Sweet Abundance

Welcome, beloved ones, to our gathering beneath the radiant glow of the Strawberry Full Moon — a time of harvest, ripening dreams, and heartfelt reflection.

This full moon invites us to honor what has blossomed in our lives, to celebrate the sweetness we’ve cultivated, and to open our hearts to receive even more love, joy, and connection.

Guided Meditation & Mirror Work.

We’ll begin with a gentle guided meditation beneath the light of the moon — a journey inward to open and activate your heart space. Through mirror work, you’ll be invited to witness yourself with compassion and love, embracing all that you are and all that you are becoming.

Craft: Strawberry Abundance Salt

Next, you’ll create your own ritual blend — a Strawberry Abundance Salt made from Himalayan or sea salt, dried strawberry, rose petals, and pure intention.

Each participant will charge their blend under the moonlight as a symbol of what is ripe and ready within them — to use in ritual, bath, or as a heartfelt gift.

Sweet Closing

We’ll end our evening in community and gratitude, sharing strawberry shortcake as a symbol of life’s sweetness and the joy of gathering under the moon’s glow.
