Fall Equinox - Transmission of Light Meditation with Ariana

Welcome to another Adventure in Consciousness with Ariana.  Friday September 22nd, 5-7pm.

The Fall Equinox is the first day of fall and signifies the start of shorter days and longer nights in the Northern Hemisphere. In the Southern Hemisphere, the opposite takes place. On this day, both day and night are equal, with 12 hours of light and 12 hours of dark.

The astrological sign Libra also begins on the Fall Equinox. Libra's astrological symbol is based on the Equinox. Libra's symbol is a scale - representing the balance of light and dark.

Balance of light and dark, coming into neutrality and alignment with the Source will be the focus for our ceremony. 

We will gather in a circle, open a portal of light and feel into the energies that will be available to us on this day. We will bathe in the light of who we are and share us selves with the wider collective on quantum particle level. There's nothing to do - but be - be your True Self and shine your light upon this world!

Jade Egg Awakening

Sunday August 27th 7-9pm, Sliding Scale $5-$60

Do you want to feel radiant confidence, while tapping into a daily self-care ritual that brings you pleasure, joy, passion, and profound connection to your body, spirit, and soul? Do you want an authentic experience of your sexuality, to be in touch with who you truly are and all your body has to offer? It is not normal to feel like our yoni's are dirty, our bodies are something to be hated, or that sex is shameful. And yet culture, family, religion, and more all reinforce a negative view of women's bodies and their sexuality. Low grade-shame, negativity and disconnection from the body become the normal baseline for many women. We aren't taught to take care of our sexuality in a holistic way, as a daily self-care practice. The jade egg is a practice that evolved in ancient China, used in the Royal Palace with the queen and concubines, and is used today as a transformational tool that revolutionizes women's sexuality. The jade egg not only strengthens the yoni and vaginal muscles, but it also helps regulate the yoni, keeping it in good health and resilience. Through different practices, the jade egg can bring in tremendous pleasure, joy, and ecstasy, while simultaneously releasing sexual blockages and trauma stored in the body. It additionally aids in lifting sexual energy inward and upward where it can be transformed into higher spiritual energy, and utilized for growth, expansion, and getting in touch with one's intuition and desire. This workshop gives an introduction to the jade egg, how to insert it, use it in a safe and effective manner, and some basic practices to get you started in a regular yoni self-care routine. This workshop will kick-off a jade egg series of classes that will move through a variety of transformational tools for a more radiant, pleasurable, and in-touch sexuality. 

Participants must bring their own egg or purchase one at the workshop. You only want to use JADE as it is a porous stone that can be used internally. Other stones are not meant to used internally.

One CAN come to the workshop and just do the embodiment exercises without an egg.

Solar Eclipse Light Transmission

Welcome to another Adventure in Consciousness with Ariana.

On Monday, August 21 the sun, moon and Earth will line up in an act of cosmic serendipity that will turn day into night across the 2,680-mile width of the United States. This is a major event that will be witnessed by many and marks a huge RESET, the ramifications of which we will probably not see until later this fall. A new understanding of how the body is simply a manifestation of your thoughts and beliefs is possible, as well as a deep healing and reset of what has been perceived as damaged, lacking or diseased. You have the potential to reset your relationship to your body and your physical well-being.  

We will gather in a circle, open a portal of light and feel into the energies that will be available to us on this day. This event is a ceremony, an adventure in consciousness and activation of your ultimate potential. We will bathe in the light of who we are and share us selves with the wider collective on quantum particle level. There's nothing to do - but be - be your true self and shine your light upon this world! 

According to my Acturian guides this solar eclipse will be a rehearsal for the Ascension and intersection of dimensions, which is why we will be focusing during the guided meditation on activation of our individual and collective Merkaba.

After the guided meditation we will go outside and watch the peak of the eclipse, which will be a partial eclipse here in Taos.

This is a free event, donations greatly appreciated. 
Feel free to invite your friends.

It is recommended to bring crystals and water to charge by the high frequencies we will be transmitting. Some of the crystals will be burried around the perimeter of Taos with intention to hold the frequencies in our community, the water can be used as a homeopathic remedy to enhance the frequency of you water at home.

Reclaim Your Sacred Sexual Power w/ Rachel Halder

Sunday August 13th, 7-9pm 

Workshop description: This workshop examines how cultural, familial, and religious understandings around sex, sexuality, and self can interrupt the life force connection to our sexual centers. Rooted in the wisdom of Tantra and neuroscience, this workshop will guide people on how to form a sacred relationship with their body, sexuality, and turn on, giving them the deep and sexy connection they've been yearning for. Combined with lecture, we will utilize sexual embodiment practices to demonstrate how to shed shame, guilt, fear, resistance, trauma and other blocks around our sexuality to fully awaken, reclaim, and embrace our sexual power and energy. When we are connected to our sexual selves, we are connected to ALL aspects of ourselves: heart, soul, body, mind, and spirit. This workshop will kick-off an 8 week class series on igniting our sexual awakening. All practices will be optional and practiced solo within a safe container, with consent and fully clothed.

Born in 1976 and with a career extending over 20 years, Jason White (Jug Colangelo) has passionately immersed himself in music and considers it to be a continual driving force, vital to his existence. This saving grace as he would put it, found him at the age of sixteen. Although late for most, he quickly developed his craft which soon after, enabled him to begin performing with several local groups.  It was during this time that he co-founded a band called, "Planet O". Immediate success followed, and the group gained many supporters all through Colorado. While touring throughout the state, and eventually the west coast, Jug gained much notoriety for his searing leads and tasteful blues driven style. With respect to his vocal method, it can be described as exhibiting a raspy, rock-like tone, while demonstrating an expressive and deft approach. 

Over the years Jug has opened for such acts which include Leon Russell, The Meditations, David Lindley, Tea Leaf Green, Sister Carol, Edgar Winter, Randy McAllister, Elephant Revival, and has performed with The Mighty Diamonds and Rankin Scroo for their nationwide tours. Although “Planet O" is still currently together, Jug has found the time to assist in cultivating several other projects. Today, he finds himself performing with multiple bands including the latest group called, “Soul Tones”. If asked what his future looks like, he’ll tell you that the skies are the limit and to stay tuned for more good music, because the best is yet to come.

An Evening of Cultivating Kindness with Tara Basu

Becoming our best selves takes practice.  Our good intentions to change for the better are often forgotten in the shuffle of daily activities and lost among ingrained patterns.  If we truly want to grow, we must take time to focus on what we would like to cultivate and see grow within ourselves.  

Being kind is one of the simplest and most effective ways to dramatically transform yourself and impact those around you in a positive way.  It is a universal concept and fundamental to all spiritual work.  This interactive workshop is an opportunity to reflect on the theme of kindness, become aware of how you apply it, and to learn new tools to improve your skills.  The program will include lecture, discussion, group activities, and group meditations.

Friday July 7, 7pm at the HFL
