ABOUT THE CEREMONY

The Autumn Equinox is a cosmic portal of time, where the sun beams onto the equator, and night and day are of equal lengths in all parts of the earth.

It is a very special time to tune into balance, harmony, and also to the changing seasons. It is a time of transition where we pay our respects to the abundance and harvest of Summer and prepare for the dormant depths of Winter.

The Autumn Equinox ceremony allows us the opportunity to honour our alignment with nature but also remembering we are part of the cosmos and therefore bringing these two aspects into harmony.

Ancient traditions understood the power of this portal and the importance of ceremony for the divine blessings of prosperity and abundance throughout winter and the coming year. It also has a lot of power to anchor your spiritual development and divine connection to everything around you.

WHO WILL BE HOSTING

Your host, Melinda Kalac, has spent time living in South America, learning the ways traditional cultures celebrated this unique cosmic event and she was fortunate to participate in ceremonies there, honouring Mother Earth and remembering our connection to nature. She has continued to study Pranic Healing, Tibetan Buddishm, Astrology and Plant Medicine and brings this wisdom into all her events and retreats. Her partner Stuart McLean who has been practising healing for over 20 years, will also help to facilitate the ceremony.

We also welcome a special guest for this event, Deborah Quirke, to channel light language. She is a Psychic Kinesiologist and brings a wealth of knowledge and spiritual power to this event.
