Sacred Union Healing Retreat with Star Johnsen-Moser
January 15 to 18, 2011
From Star Moser: "During this very special workshop we will focus with intent together, guided by the Light and love of the Great Spirit, for deeper awareness and empowerment of the unique qualities of our own Divine inner Male and Divine inner Female. As old patterns of negative belief systems are released, transmuted and transformed by the Light, we will experience spontaneous ecstatic inner union as these two sacred parts of ourselves, known in Mayan cosmology as Itzamna and Ixchel, are brought into reconnection. Our crystal skulls and other spiritual tools will help us in channeling, amplifying, and directing these very powerful energies with which we will be working. Through conscious Sacred Union we will journey into the depths of our core, the essence of our soul, and come ultimately into a much fuller embodiment of our own Divine Presence."
"We will also do several sacred ceremonies together during this Equinox time, at various pyramids located here in the Izamal area."
This 4-day workshop is being offered for a love donation. (pay as you wish)
Enrollment will be limited to 25 participants, so please RSVP early.
