Spring Equinox Ceremony and Celebration 

Beloved friends of the Sanctuary of the Open Heart, we invite you to celebrate the Spring Equinox with us on Saturday, March 19. We will gather at a private temple in Petaluma for high ceremony and mythic celebration. It's FREE and open to the public; Love donations are welcomed for the on-going sustenance of The Sanctuary! RSVP to get more details, including the address to our gathering.

The Flow of the Day

Gates Open at 12 p.m.

12 - 12:45: Creative Play! Weave your own flower and ivy head wreath and/or paint your own "intention egg" ... paint your intentions for what you are seeding to emerge and blossom!

12:45: Call to ceremony; ceremony begins at 1 p.m. Through the lens of Ariel Spilsbury's new book Gaia's New DreamCoat and its beloved archetypal characters from the Faerie realm, will will ecstatically and alchemically create a "light loom" to plant the new patterning and weave the New Way for Gaia's greening. Through each other's mythic stories, poems, dances, and songs, we will collectively dream up and empower a new reality, vibrationally healing the "Wasteland" condition of our beloved planet. Like the faeries, we gather alchemically and magically for the collective "upliftment" of all life, everywhere in creation! 

2-4 p.m. Picnic and Play. Please bring food to share for our community picnic!

What to Bring...

• You are invited to dress whimsically and, if resonant, as one of the archetypal characters in Gaia's New DreamCoat
• You are invited to share a poem, dance, or story of Spring that can be easily woven into the afternoon 
• Please bring food to share for our picnic
• Please bring a financial love donation to help offset the costs of our beautiful gathering and to support the sustainability of The Sanctuary
