This evening is a journey into indigenous wisdom through the lens of an old myth told to the people while the rhythm of the African Djembe drum calls to the elements. We humans have been gathering for millennia to hear the guidance of the handed down intelligence of the ancestors as a way of improving our navigation in the present. With this unique style of facilitation, we will travel together to find a valuable treasure trove called "a moment of community" that is the renewable wealth of nature come into the human realm

It looks like Nature is helpless against the onslaughts of modernity, corporate cynicism, and political indifference, save for a bit of greenwashing here and there. But real nature is renewable, and likewise, a culture of repair, restitution, reconciliation and revivification is available as a wellspring of integrity, power and navigation for those who might be able to listen with the old ears tuned to Eldership. Myth holds such Eldership, in a way that is generous for those who seek power not for their own aggrandisement, but to help life to continue jumping up alive in this time of jeopardy.

You are already equiped to join this journey into myth, ritual, grief and praise by virtue of your native humanity. You won't find the "moral of the story" in these evenings and events——there is a hidden doorway into the great wealth of the "store-house" of the story, individual to each listener, yet magnified magnificently through participation in the old ritual of a "two-way-listening" around the hearth with good people.

Bring your serious intention for this evening—the old way of "story-carrying" is generous enough to help each one in the room with a "next-best-step." If we can hold back that modern urge to rush and "get-it-all" for just a few moments, we will be richly rewarded.

And you are welcome to join the full day long immersion on Saturday in Katoomba, just over an hour from Melbourne CBD in the Blue Mountains.

Guide for the evening is Randy Jones, author of "Medicine Without an Expiry Date: Indigenous Remedy for Modern Trouble," introduction by [Ancestor] Elder and Diviner, Malidoma Somé, PhD. Find full information at https://wildgenius.guide

Joining us also will be special guest ritual leader and long time colleague Tony Alferez from Portland Oregon!
