Creation-song circles
You are invited to an ever-evolving gathering attuned to the emerging Tone Age of Harmonic Bliss. In the tradition of shamanic medicine circles, we communally sing alive (and breath, voice, chant, spirit-language . .) a fertile imaginal space which allows the deeper currents of Creation to move thru us, to vision us into increasingly conscious participation with the Gaian Dream. We thereby cultivate the strong, activated, open-hearted self-awareness needed to flourish us thru these transitional times. Those who don't think they can sing are encouraged to come and claim the birthright of a singing species!
AND Many new songs from my winter travels . . .

Tribal Talk ~~ somewhere in the evening . . . Tribal talk is variant of 'soning', which explores the fertile spaces between toning and singing. While soning encompasses the full-range of sounds, syllables, melodies, and breaths in a kind of free-form, primordial excavation of human voice possibilities, tribal talk is more structured, and most importantly, more conversational. In this session, we begin with soning as a warm up, and then direct the creative flow to the formation of inter-dimensional languages, and dialogues. Tribal talk is the art of being very articulate in speaking words with no meaning, i.e. no 'apparent' meaning, for all the nuances of intonation, phrasing, timing, the give and take of speaking and listening, etc., all that makes for good conversation, are highly present, for they carry the stream of meaning. A well-executed tribal talk session helps cleanse our vibrational palate, gets us on the 'felt' wavelength of communication, creates space for other beings to converse with us and thru us, and is good, mystical fun!

Herbalism, Identity, and Culture Change

This talk, and discussion forum, will explore the far reaches of herbalist identity. Herbalism can range from a pleasantly quaint country craft, to the art of reading the Gaian pulse, and the culture that acts on its directives. An herbalist can be understood to be a wildcrafter, a gardener, a medicine maker (and seller), a health consultant, an activist who defends the living forest, and even the person who pumps the essence of ancient forests into your car. We will use the the active constituent (AC) and whole plant (WP) models of herbal efficacy, and their mirroring in social forms (cultures), to frame our discussion. We will find that there is an "annual herbalism" that comes and goes with the seasons of empire, and a ‘perennial herbalism" that expresses itsef as plant-inspired life-ways, an indigenous conciousness, woven thru-out the human story. How does this then play out in the post-1960"s herbal renaissance? How does it express itself in syncretic practices, such as 'global herbalism'? And how can these diverse teaching from the elder plant kin-dom guide us, as an adolescent species, in our structural destiny to ‘flower’ beneath the sunlight of our opening hearts?

Elderberry School of Botanical Medicine 2 - 5 pm. @ 37 SE Ash between 6th and Grand, go in the door under the green awning, take the stairway on the left up to floor 3, turn right and walk about 5 feet to door with sign to Soul Truth Shamanic Center.

The ever-evolving song circle in service to blossoming the garden within and without, a re-seeding of the mass consciousness with a fertile and healthy imaginal space that can accomodate the abundance of Nature's power to Save the Humans, and can allow us to build visionary experiences strong and intense enough to achieve the great personal and planetary transformations that increasing numbers of us are being called to perform.

In Topanga, CA . . . Jan. 29th

Heart-Medicine: Invoking the Jewel in the Lotus

aka A Human Flowering Creation-Song ~~ This is an act-ivating meditation, inspired by a variety of traditions, including Taoist movement arts, Amazonian plant-based healing, and anthroposophy. Seated in a circle with eyes closed, we breath, tone, 'sone' (the liminal whirled between toning and singing), chant, and sing our way thru a story of Creation. Thru the imagery of Gaian evolution, and teachings of the songs, we awaken our Creation-body, and cultivate a Garden within. This resonance with our evolutionary heritage passes to us lineages of transformation which culminate in our surrender to a higher octave, a 'flowering' beneath the Sunlight of our opening hearts. Those who don’t think they can sing are encouraged to come and claim the birthright of a singing species!
