SUMMARY:Intimacy with Death
DESCRIPTION:A Ritual Journey in 3 Acts\n\n\n\nAs the light fades and the nights get darker\, as the playfulness of summer wanes\,  you might be feeling more of the grief you carry\, you might perceive more the scent of Death around you and perhaps you know\, it makes no sense to run.We invite you to join us for a ritual portal to enter Intimacy with Death. \n\n\n\nCome and join us in the circle to share and witness the grief we all carry\, surrender to an experience of dying before dying\, and rise again to dance your dance with Death. We invite you to come into deeper sensuality as you acknowledge that all day and every day we dance with Death and we don´t know how long the music will play. Come and revel with us in the mystery that binds us all.  \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n1. The Grief Circle\n\n\n\nWe welcome you into a Grief Circle to share your sorrow\, losses\, and all expressions of grief you carry. We gather in silence and dance to connect for some tacts with those heavy feels we all seek to move within us. Coming into a circle gives each of us the space to share the voices and sounds of our grief and be witnessed and held in compassionate awareness to help us release and transmute some of the sorrow in our hearts. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n2. Die before you die\n\n\n\nMany cultures offer initiatory practices where we can experience death in some way. Meditations on death support us in preparing our conscious minds for the moment when we die. We will take into a deep meditative experience through the process of dying a natural death according to the Tibetan Book of the Death and experience a tranquil surrender.  \n\n\n\nAs we breathe in and out\, we let go of our attachments\, our fears\, and surrender to the universal rhythm of life and death. Here\, we encounter our mortality\, not with dread but with quiet acceptance\, offering us the gift of living fully while we still have breath in our bodies. \n\n\n\n3. Dance with Death\n\n\n\nIn the last act we will guide you back to fully feeling your aliveness coming back to your senses and rejoicing in the sound of the fiesta that is life. In this final dance we embrace Death not as an enemy\, but as a dance partner in the eternal waltz of existence. We summon the spirit of the Mexican Day of the Dead\, invoking a celebration of life in the very face of death\, reminding us that every end is but a new beginning. We’ll revel in this joyful dance with Death\, our footfalls echoing the transient beauty of life\, our laughter defying the finality of our mortal fate. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nJoin us as we navigate the delicate line between life and death\, celebrating the powerful wisdom born of our shared human experience. Step into the Circle of Shadows\, and leave with an expanded heart\, a lighter spirit\, and a deeper understanding of your place in the grand story of exis-dance. \n\n\n\nHow to prepare\n\n\n\nWe invite you to take some time before you enter the space to connect and attune. Bring perhaps a journal to write down impulses you receive during the ritual. Make sure you have had some dinner\, so you don´t get distracted by hunger during the ritual and can fully surrender to the experience.  \n\n\n\nWhat to bring\n\n\n\n\nA water bottle that can be closed to keep hydrated\n\n\n\nSome delicious snacks to delight your tastebuds during the re-awakening \n\n\n\nAn offering for the Alter: flowers\, candles\, sweets\n\n\n\nPhotos of your departed\, a magical object you want to charge with this energy\n\n\n\nOptional: A cozy pillow and blanked for your death bed.
