Welcome to our opening lodge of this 2025!. The usual round of lodges has been disrupted as has much of life these days. Because of the Virginia Burn Law, which I am paying more attention to these days, and due to the snowy winter we have had we will also have to miss our Spring Lodge, but one of my favorite times of the year is in the Southeast, the time around May and Early June.

This time is archetypally a beautiful expression of creativity and eros. Flowers in the Garden of Delight. It is a beautiful time at Earthwalk Ways as well. A delicate new green will be tender and radiant. Come and drink this beauty and fill up with this powerful but tender new life emerging.

Lodges at the earthwalk retreat are welcoming of all and are not traditional lodges, but are Guided by the Earth Mother, to support all of us in grounding and connecting with the center of the earth, so we can hold ourselves in these times of shaking, and be of service to the transformation and upleaveling of the spiral evolutionary aspect of the wheel.

People are invited to come Saturday afternoon camp out. I have a wonderful Feast of May audio experience that is wonderful to listen to around a campfire. It is a deep mediation on the Medicine Wheel and the meaning of this time of the year.

Sunday morning we will light the fire at 10AM. We may prepare the fire early that morning or Saturday, depending on the weather. The wood takes a while to heat the stones and then we will be deep into the lodge for several hours. We should be coming up for a late Pot Luck lunch around 3pm.

Lodges are wonderful for releasing what you are no longer resonating with and opening to the new influx of awareness and love. They are a natural cleansing process that calls upon the elements of nature to rebalance us according to our prayers and visions. Spring is a time of cultivation so come and lets cultivate together in the heart of Mother Earth.

Please feel free to call if you have questions or email me. EArthwalk Ways was established in 1992 and the first thing we did here was build our sacred sweat lodge. I hope you can join us as this beautiful tradition continues. 540 752 5540 Earthwalkways@gmail.com.

We are located near Fredericksburg Virginia, in an emerald forest along a bold stream. I know you will find a beautiful space to deepen your earth connection. Hope to see you soon.
