Winter Solstice, the peak of the dark in the cycle of the year, is one of the most powerful turning points of the year.
Hopi friends tell me that the thoughts and focus you have at Winter Solstice are the seeds you will grow in the coming year.
This is a potent time to connect with nature and ceremony and the power of our own focused intention to create a new vibrational frequency and positive movement.
Humankind has supported renewal of life in this way for thousands of years.
Programs led by Sandra Cosentino, who has more than 3 decades of experience leading mystic insight and vision quest retreats, ceremonies, and tours (Sedona, Hopi, Navajo).
