A Midwinters Dream.With Pagan Poetry Into The New Year

Hey, YOU!

Are you also not in the mood to spend new years eve in the city?

You actually don't like new years eve?

Are you annoyed of mainstream capitalistic Babylon holidays?

Don't you know what it's all about? Just the "coming together "makes sense for you?

 

Then come with us on vacation over New Year's Eve to France!...

 

We will enrol the whole thing, back to the point before commerce,

When it was still about contemplation, protection and new beginnings...

Come with us to the south of France from 28.12. - 02.01.2021!

We will honour the "Rauhnächte ", the twelve nights, the rough nights of pagan poetry, and celebrate rebirth!....

 

Which? Yours! The one of the light!

What is light? - It is clarity, joy, shining skulls and radiating hearts

 

We spend our time together here with

yoga

holistic exercise

meditation

clean vegan gluten-free food

Tibetan purifying practices

rituals

shiatsu massages or healing sessions (optional)

The days before New Year's Eve we are dealing with the old, the death, the letting go and honouring... and step into the new year (with what we have put down or dressed on new)

 

5 Elements Dance Meditation

cacao ceremony

vegan feast

The first day of the New Year is full of invitations, visions, creations and we finish the retreat on the 2nd of January, with great anticipation of all that is coming, after lunch …
