Day 4 - Ancestral Healing Fire & Ecstatic Dance with Fearn Lickfield

  • Rootstock Retreat 1429 Beach Hill Road, Apt, Suite, Bldg. (optional) West Glover United States (map)
 
 

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.

The fourth and final night of the fire, Samhain, will be held by Fearn Lickfield of the Green Mountain Druid Order.

Let us gather around the fire to explore our roots, our stories and our magic. We who are drawn to the betwixt and between, who see deep into the mystery of life, death and Nature, who walk with the spirits, are needed more than ever to heal our world from the inside out.

Many born with healing gifts also carry heavy trauma, shame and fear rooted in the inquisition and other awful acts of violence and oppression. It is time to journey to the River of Blood to heal the wounds of PITS; Post Inquisitional Trauma Syndrome. We will free the Druid, the Witch, the Seer, the healer within and make new vows to ourselves, to life and to land… and then dance our freedom!

We do this work for ourselves and for our collective lineages across space and time.
