CONCERT – Crystal Bowls in the Woods – 22/06/2013
Summer Solstice marks the longest day of the year. A time through the ages marked for celebration and intention. An honouring of the light and our connection to the sun, earth and stars.
Our ancestors in ancient times built huge bonfires on this day to celebrate their tangible connection to the vital power of the immense burning star that keeps our planet bright, warm and alive. It’s a good time to remember that we, like the sun, contain the power to nurture and sustain, and that we have a responsibility to burn as brightly as we can.…”
This summer solstice we will be offering a very intentional sound journey with crystal bowls, gongs, flutes and harmonic voices to commemorate the energy of solstice. Come and connect with your own voice and its healing nature through tones, sounds and vibration.
Jeremy Sills and Naomi Athena will be offering this under “Raven and the Light Tree”. Raven is the name of our now 2 year old son, and light tree or tree of light is the totem of the tribe we work with in Peru that heals through the ancient songs or Ikaros.
We will also (fingers crossed) have our new album ready!
