Andrew Prod Photography - Soul Circus 2021 (54).jpg

SHAKTI ~ शक्ति ~ Śakti

~ The sacred feminine, that exists in all things ~ The divine energy & power in creation ~ The active life force that dances life into being

ALCHEMY ~ al~chemist

~ Transmuting of matter ~ A seemingly magical process of transformation, creation, or combination.

Join us for a long weekend of wonder exploring the world of the extra ordinary ~ the realities we so often forget. A journey offering, created to welcome you to drop fully into the internal landscapes of the body & it's ancient wisdoms .
Travelling & awakening the river of love that connects the heart & womb

Know that all of you is welcome just as you are

Blessed vessels, made of the earth herself
The oceans flowing through our veins
The breath of life breathing us as we breathe it
The sunshine’s rays encapsulated within our very cells, radiating life into us & reminding us of the light that burns bright within

You are all of this ~ You are life herself

Give yourself permission to release patterns & ways of being that do not serve you
Like the cycles & seasons of life, that create space for new fresh energy to bud & bloom
May we do the same
We will travel inwards ~ a coming home to the dark fertile soils within
Awareness dropping into the deep dark depths of the womb ~ The chalice for life itself
Readying ourselves for the coming year ~ at this time of spring where all of life is growing out of it’s incubation, bringing with it fresh shapes, colours & textures all around
Planting dream seeds that are ready to burst fourth

With abundance ~ Full of gifts ~ Full of medicine
We will delve into the sacred feminine dimensions we all carry

When you root into the truths we so often forget, explore & embody them
Nothing can cut that connection
May your inner compass & guides be brought into the orbit of your awareness
May your signals be felt & your sensitivities & sensuality pulse & expand
As your aura ~ magnetic field radiates in all directions

We each hold the power to alchemize our lives & birth creations into being
You are worthy ~ More than enough & never too much

As you weave presence & consciousness into the every day
Life pulsates in an enchanted dimension
Tuning into the heart space ~ we connect to the inner beloved
Welcoming ALL that arises from this space
Exploring the dreams & desires living here
Welcoming our prayers to dance into being

Journeying together into the feminine arts
Awakening our inner SHAKTI ~ A remembering of all we hold

Dancing the spiral of life ~ Tuning into the season of blooming & blossoming
We look to Spring for it's messages & reminders that we are always able to grow & open
That a rebirth is never far away

With tenderness we will guide & invite you through an array of practices
Whilst holding a sacred container for you to be witnessed, as we flow through multifaceted healing experiences that allow a true alchemy of heart & spirit to unfurl
Just like the delicate flowers that unfurl with softness & dance in the wind
Like the sweetness that hides within the juice of fruits, once flowers too
Anchor in fresh life force, sweeter perceptions & remember you are capable of transformation
Together with all those that join us we will co create a beautiful sharing, that will be carried in our hearts always
Far beyond the last circle we share
