Autumn Equinox Women's Circle & Cacao Ceremony with Sound Bath

This in-person event will take place on Saturday 21st September 2024 at 15:00 GMT and we will be welcoming the Autumn Equinox which occurs on 22nd September 2024 at approximately 12:44 GMT in the Northern Hemisphere.

As the Earth’s axis aligns with the sun, equal amounts of daylight and darkness cover the planet. Also known as a Mabon ritual, the Autumn Equinox honours and celebrates the balance between light and darkness as the days grow shorter and the nights become longer, marking the end of summer and beginning of Autumn. It is a season of gratitude, transformation and introspection, a season that invites us to harmonise our inner and outer worlds and prepare for the winter months ahead.

💫Women's circles are intimate gatherings where females discuss goals, concerns, stories, and advice. Women have gathered in ceremonious circles based on the cycles of the moon and their own menstruation throughout history. These circles were a ritual to connect with the natural world, each other, and celebrate the feminine. They were considered incredibly potent and healing, and it was thought that when women from the tribe gathered together and connected as one, they could connect to the divine and seek answers to any problem. Gathering in a circle of women can be a profoundly transformative yet vulnerable experience. Women circles can help us feel supported in navigating the ups and downs of life and help us feel less alone in what we are going through.

💫Cacao Ceremonies have been around for thousands of years, originating all the way back to Mayan and Aztec traditions in Central and South America. Cacao was an intrinsic part life, used as a pillar of their economies, spiritual, medicinal and ceremonial purposes. Cacao is a powerful plant medicine used for inner awakening and creative guidance. As part of the opening ceremony, we will be drinking a beautiful homemade spiced cacao.

💫 Autumn Equinox is more than a transition from seasons; it’s a festival of awakening and rebirth. As we transition from one season to the next we have deep change acknowledged by the arrival of the Equinox. Beyond the change in seasons, this powerful moment holds deep spiritual significance, symbolising the soul’s rebirth, growth, and awakening, and all of this to mark an energetic shift to regain our personal power. This awakening mirrors the rekindling of who we are and it’s quite common for many to go through spiritual upgrades, becoming more sensitive to the natural ebbs and flows of life which inspires new ideas, dreams, and a sense of aliveness and connection.

💫Sound Healing is a beautiful way of shifting stagnant energies, allowing you to rebalance your mind, body and soul. We will end the session with the soothing vibrations of various instruments, including Himalayan crystal bowls, Tibetan singing bowls, drums and chimes. Singing bowls have been used for centuries in religious and spiritual ceremonies; deeply rooted in science, they are based on principles of quantum physics and sacred geometry. The sounds release different frequencies and vibrations which are known to be nourishing and restorative. This soothing and calming practice can alleviate you of negative energy, induce your meditative state and realign your internal frequency. Everyone's experience is different, but most people tend to feel very relaxed and peaceful and are able to drift into a light sleep.
