Wild Ecstatic Night: Dancing with Shadows in Change... 🗓 Saturday, October 26th 🏛 Temple of Happiness 🎧 DJ: Jivanmukta (Janine), Founder of the Temple 🍫 Sacred Cacao Ceremony & Storytelling 🔥 Haka Workshop with Roland Vlietstra Step into a transformative night at the Temple of Happiness, where we invite you to dance with your shadows. This evening is a deep dive into the dance of change, an exploration of the light and dark within us. 🌑🌟 Theme: Dancing with Shadows in change... This is a time of profound transformation, a season to turn inward and connect with the cycles of life and death, light and darkness. Across the globe, rituals mark this period of introspection and renewal—Halloween, Divali (India), St. Martin's, All Souls’ Day—all reminders that now is the time to face our shadows, embrace change, and emerge renewed. As we gather in this sacred space, we honor these traditions and explore our own inner landscapes. Evening Schedule: 1. Potluck with your Tribe-souls Arrive around 6 pm and take time to connect with your dance partners during a delightful meal, we create together in a Potluck way. Please bring something yummy food from home.. Our lovely door-angels will welcome you and show you the way. Maybe you want to put on some facepaint, dress up for this Halloween-ish theme or buy some accesoires in our pop-op arts & treasure shop. 2. Sacred Cacao Ceremony & Storytelling Our journey begins with a sacred cacao ceremony led by Jivanmukta (Janine), where she will share a story that reflects the period of the year. And ancient tale will guide us into the depths of our own transformation, setting the tone for a night of introspection and self-discovery. 3. Haka Workshop with Roland Vlietstra Following the cacao ceremony, immerse yourself in the primal energy of the Haka, led by Roland Vlietstra. This traditional Maori dance, filled with powerful cries and rhythmic stomping, serves as a way to confront our deepest fears, reclaim our strength, and express our emotions. It’s a call to unite with others in a shared experience of courage and transformation. 🌋 4. Wild Ecstatic Dance Set by Jivanmukta (Janine) Then, surrender to the flow of a special Wild Ecstatic Dance set by Jivanmukta. This set encourages you to play with the dichotomy of light and dark, to dance through fear, emotions, life, and rebirth. Challenge the dragons and Kalis within that block your life force, and invite them to transform. As the dance draws to a close, melt into the soothing, loving music that fosters connection, grounding, and a sense of deep, loving embrace. 💃🕺 A Night of Expression: Dress to Dance with Your Shadows!
