hosted by Sarah Rayne

Would you like to honor the most magical day of the year in intentional community & ceremony? Are you ready to connect deeply with the energy of your ancestry & send healing vibrations all the way up your bloodline? Are you curious about ancestor work, or wishing to compliment your existing ancestor honoring practice with a potent & healing fire ceremony? Do you want to do something just plain fun and witchy this halloween?

Then join us for our Samhain & Ancestral Healing Ceremony, led by Firebird’s resident priestess & alchemist, Sarah Rayne. Samhain is the ancient pagan & Celtic precursor to Halloween, and is the day when the veil between worlds is thinnest. This is a potent time for ancestor work, honoring the dead, and is a celebration to honor the end of harvest season, as the days grow colder and we continue spiraling towards the Winter Solstice.

This luscious 2 hour group healing & ceremony will begin indoors. We will open sacred space together, and discuss the energies of Samhain, Scorpio season, and ancestor work. After a brief somatic exercise, we will move into an extended guided meditation with hands-on (or off) Reiki healing. The Reiki will flow into your body, and energetically up your ancestral line, with the intention of healing inherited ancestral patterns & traumas held in your DNA.

We will then move outdoors to the backyard for a potent fire ceremony around the fire pit. We will send up messages to our ancestors, release & declare our intentions to the universe, and end with an intentional song around the fire. Before you leave, you’ll have the opportunity to craft an herbal talisman, to hold all of the magic & intention that you conjured during the ceremony, and to help anchor you to this magical work moving forward.

All are welcome, no experience necessary!
