2020 Spring Ceremony of Renewal


Join Us…

 

…for a unique online experience

where we gather in a sacred way,

taking the time to renew and restore ourselves,

while meeting the challenging times in which we live.

  • How does Ceremony work in the Digital Realm?

  • Why does it matter that we have a Spring Ceremony?

 
 

Context:

For sixteen Springs, we have gathered in the Midwest to create a community ceremony to foster our own renewal and, at the same time, to honor the springtime renewal of our Mother Earth.

 

This year, because of the global rite of passage called forth by the coronavirus, we are unable to meet in person on the banks of the St. Croix River in Stillwater, Minnesota.

 

And so, we are inviting you to gather with us online in May, in a three-part ceremony, to celebrate the Spring in this time of great possibility and great challenge and to explore the seed we each wish to plant in the garden of our lives.

The four elements of this online ceremony are…


1.  Is this ceremony for me? Come and learn more about the ceremony and have your questions answered by attending one of two, 90-minute, free Zoom calls on Monday April 20th or Saturday April 25th.

(Attending one of these calls is required if you wish to participate in the online ceremony.)


2.  Our "Doorway Element" on Zoom will be on Saturday May 9th.


3.  Our "Discovering Our Seeds Element" will be on Zoom on Friday afternoon/evening May 15th,  and all day Saturday May 16th (not continuously online - there will be time alone during the day).


4.  Our "Completion Element" will be on Zoom on Saturday May 30th.


During the two weeks between element #3 and element #4 Pele and FireHawk will offer support in various ways online.

2020 Spring Ceremony of Renewal Online

It is very important for the integrity of the ceremony that those who commit to participating in this ceremony are able to come for the whole experience. Just like OnEarth ceremonies, there will be some preparation that will allow us to have the deepest experience possible. Plan to leave behind all the rest of your life and bring yourself fully present for this sacred time together.

Hover your mouse over the three images to learn a little more about each ceremony.

This ceremonial beginning will allow the community to come together and set individual and collective intentions for our own renewal this Spring.

In this ceremony we will begin the process of getting to know one another and make our preparations for the upcoming weekend ceremony that takes place in six days.

Our focus will be on discovering the One Seed that we wish to plant in the garden of our life this Spring.

Friday and Saturday will be a combination of working together online, meeting in small groups and solo time on the Earth.

This ceremony invites us all to claim our seeds as we each make a sacred promise to ourselves and to Life to lovingly tend our seeds in the coming year in ways that allow them to thrive.

Some words about money…

We live in an extraordinary time and it has never been so important that we care for our relationship with our home planet, which is one of the functions that ceremony cares for.

In the spirit of these times we offer you three options for exchange for this online ceremony. The center fee of $150 will just about cover our costs of creating this ceremony and supporting the community during May as we discover, understand, and claim our seeds together.

We are very aware of how precarious and uncertain finances are right now and so we want to offer the following three options as exchange for this ceremony and ask you to choose what truly works for you. It is our principle that no one is turned away from ceremony who really wants to participate. Contact us and we can explore this territory together.

REGISTRATION FOR THIS YEAR'S SPRING CEREMONY IS NOW CLOSED
