Sedona Sacred (Vortex) Journey

An depth view of Sedona as an ancient and modern place of pilgrimage -- we go to named “vortex” sites and other special earth spirit connection places amid Sedona’s landscape temples.  Connect with the energies of nature in an intuitively guided shamanic journey for personal inspiration and insight. Practice other attunement techniques and learn about the many spiritual resources to be found in the area.

Sedona is a vibrant gateway to the mythological center of the universe--the Colorado Plateau. Ponder the mysteries, sense what called you here at this time as we weave Native American thought, metaphysics, geomancy, natural science and archaeology and evoke inner connection and knowing. The earth is alive and in Sedona she speaks loud and clear: come home to your own heart. Red and white cliffs, like bones laid bare from forces of wind, water and tectonics, reveal sensuous forms and faces. There is a presence here that quickens your senses. Towering columns of rock rise above as we travel up over 1,500 feet above Sedona on a back canyon road. You will hear stories of those who have come before, of the plants and animals, and the unique qualities of the earth that have made Sedona a place of inspiration since prehistoric times. We spend time on Cathedral Rock letting her radiant presence and spires inspire us.We'll cover a lot of areas in the comfort of a luxury van and give you many ideas for self-exploration of the land and human resources.   Painting on left, Cathedral Morning is by Cody DeLong, a local artist who accepts studio visits.

"Everyone on the tour really enjoyed themselves. .. We all left the tour feeling charged and we have you to thank for that. I feel very blessed to have had a chance to meet you and I feel that meeting you was not coincidental. You helped guide me to my purpose there in Sedona for this visit" April, 2004

"Not only was this journey informative, but I had a sense of stepping into a different world. Something seemed to be more alive in a different way. Just like Native Americans recognize sacred places that are doorways into the spirit world--this was essentially a doorway into myself. The place speaks and there's such a strong presence of not only the ancient history of the earth but the ancient peoples who lived here too. I began to be drawn to my own deeper ancestral connections."
M.B., Adelaid, Austrailia

"We had an absolutely awesome trip and Sandra was phenomenal.  
She took us places and gave us info and tips that made our pilgrimage  even more spiritually beneficial."

"My song changed everything. " Yavapai-Apache legend of the first woman of their tribe who emerged here in the red rocks to begin their tribe in this their fourth world.Nicholas Mann, author of Sedona, Sacred Earth, discovered the following legend of the Yavapai from stories compiled by E.W. Gifford in 1932-1936 as told by Mike Burns and Jim Stacey, both Yavapai and born in the 1800's. "First woman, Komwidpokuwia, old stone woman, originally came from Montezuma's Well, where the Yavapai had been living. Before the great floods came, she was placed inside a hollow log, along with a bird and some food. Then they sealed the log with pitch so she would to float to a new place of safety to create the next world. It is said that Komwidapokuwia landed in a high place in Boynton Canyon, where she lived in a cave. She is the Goddess of the supernatural and medicine powers and is beautiful and as pure as a downy white feather.....The medicine men , or anyone believing...may see her yet in a vision or dream and receive instructions, comfort and encouragement. The following story of Yavapai first woman, Komwidapokuwia, tells us of her listening to the songs of heaven, and trusting and standing in that truth, to sing for all life. Star powder heaven was used for her body She came forth and stood and sang: My talking and singing are life. I speak for spiritual life All over the world. I speak and all the world Lightens up to heaven. This is the way I sing When I listen to the songs of heaven. Small heaven with white circles her chest was woven of, She sang to make different all the world. This she sang for the sake of the shamans. She sang and flowers bloomed in the sky. This is her way of singing: My songs were made for the beautiful sky. My word went out into the sky. The world stood still. A rainbow from heaven reached to this world. Everything was still. My song changed everything. This is the way I sang when I was in the world Going around in the Red Rock Country."
