Heat of Summer,
๐๐ฆ๐ช๐ณ๐ฐ๐ด ๐๐ข๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ด,
the Pull of the Poles Towards A Union that Sparks Creation... ๐ฅ
....and that ripe summertime juiciness ๐,the nectar we get to drink, exude, and share with one another as part of our ALIVENESS.
And our Aliveness feeds the World in Ways She Needs.
It's a Prayer AND a Party. (And a Picnic!) ๐งบ

This Year will feature:
An Opening Ceremony
Connection Opportunities to Weave Us in our Circle
A Double-Wave Ecstatic DANCE brought to you back2back by K.Maitri AND Permissionary
(in honor of uniting the masculine and feminine)
And THEN....
The Ancient Ritual re-enacting the Union of the Masculine and Feminine-- Consciousness and Action-- Shiva and Shakti-- the Green Man and the Goddess-- The Union which Sparks Creation....
We Invite YOU to participate...
....there will be the Masculine represented by a large Pole to be anointed, drummed around, imbued with the essence of Excellence as the Masculine dreams it...
...There will be a hole lovingly dug in the earth, to be adorned with flowers, filled with milk and honey, sung to, and soaked in the Dreams of Feminine Love...
There will be an open Field Between, where the energy of Fluidity and Connection will Frolic and Play with the two Poles as they near one another...
And all of us are invited to be with whatever part of the Ceremony speaks to you, as we carry the Sacred Pole to the Sacred Hole, Symbolizing Divine Union and Infinite Creative Potential.
And then we Dance Around the Maypole! -- Always a highlight.
Picnicking, Connection, Frolicking, and Cavorting highly encouraged throughout!
If you feel called to bring something extra-special, please reach out! Do you blow giant bubbles? Walk on stilts? Juggle? Have an interactive art piece you'd like to bring? Reach out! The more the merrier. ๐ฌ๏ธ๐ซงโจ
