Through the Portal: Engaging with the Seven Directions and Five Elements


  • Heart Springs Sanctuary Washington Boro, PA (map)

What supports your life? Where do you turn when there is imbalance or you need guidance?

One of the biggest supports in my life, is my relationship with the Seven Directions (East, South, West, North, Below, Above, Center) and Five Elements (Air, Fire, Water, Earth, Ether). This is where I turn when there is imbalance in my life, my work, or with the Sanctuary. I look to the Directions and Elements when I need guidance. I know that they support the foundation of my life.

Developing a deep, personal relationship with the Directions and Elements, helps us find our way through the World and is one of the fundamentals of Magical and Alchemical work.

Working with the Directions and Elements is included in the HEARTransformation Apprenticeship; however, I’ve long wanted to offer a deeper exploration than what I can in the Apprenticeship. This winter, as I pondered how I could best help those who had their foundations rocked and felt lost, my Guides gave me the detailed program for this course.

Each day is focused on a particular Direction and Element.  Every day we will work with a Plant who is connected to that day's Direction/Element.  We will also experience multiple activities and Ceremonies to help strengthen our relationship with that Direction/Element.  The point of the workshop is to deepen and amplify your personal relationship with the Directions and Elements, giving you an incredible source of guidance.

You will experience:

GUIDANCE FROM the Directions and Elements


Merge with the consciousness of the Directions and Elements as you form an intimate, life-long relationship. These relationships will continue as a source of guidance, support, and healing for years to come.

SHAMANIC JOURNEYING

Shamanic journeying is the art of tuning into rhythm and intention to discover unseen realms beyond physical reality. This altered, spiritual dimension is an incredible tool that gives us access to the wisdom and gifts of the Plant World (and more) to support healing and change in our lives.


PLANT FOCUSED BREATHWORK

Greenbreath is an activated breathing journey with the Plants. Through this powerful process you have the opportunity for spontaneous healing, shattering old patterns, receiving guidance and information, and truly changing your life.


Restorative Time

Slowing down and pending time in Nature is an integral part of this program to all you to experience the energetics of each Direction/Element. Sometimes we learn and heal best by simply sitting.


And so much More!


PREREQUISITES
