The Transformation Fire is our way to celebrate our existence, our growth, our accomplishments and our desire to keep unfolding. This 100 hour fire is tended by members of our community and open to the prayers, wishes, pain, blessings, hope, confusion and magic of any and all who come to sit with it. This co-created 5 day ceremony is a way to make peace with what was, to celebrate what is and to call in what we want for the year ahead.

COVID protocol

The world is very strange now and each of us is being called on to clarify what safety means to us. We ask that any guests attending any part of this ceremony take care not to come if they have any symptoms or were in contact with folks sick or with symptoms. Negative COVID tests are welcome and encouraged. Guests may wear masks if they choose, social distance if they choose or do neither if they choose so long as everybody respects one another’s space and choices. This gathering will be happening outside, rain or shine, with some opportunity for sheltered space.
