Winter Solstice ~ Wintering with PUMA ~ Dance ~ Sacred Meditation ~ Creative

The creative force of winter runs deep within the earth’s rhythms and heartbeat.

In praise and deep respect to your walk, your voice, your dance and your vision for life, we call on ancestors of a different land who carry with them PUMA medicine.

There is an altar in Sacsayhuaman Park in Cusco, Peru, and on the top of this powerful ceremonial centre is a beautiful carving of the head of the puma.

Every year on the 21st of June at 7:15 a.m., the eyes of the puma light up by the first rays of the sun, representing that the puma is completely

awake.

Each year from this sacred altar, when the Pumas eyes light up we are offered a magical initiation, the opportunity to be blessed by the nature of the Puma, which is to be generous, to be adaptable, and to always be in deep communion with Mother Earth.

During this Winter Solstice we will journey with PUMA to open up our listening, alert yet full of grace and understand the power in our solitude, in our stillness. We will move, vision and create with our instincts, opening up to the strength of our still point with a deep grace and understanding of steadfastness adaptability.

Jo and Sue warmly invite you to join us in the depths of winter for the solstice to journey and bringing in the compassionate ways to mend with the grace and gentleness, to listen profoundly, finding the strength in vulnerability and to regenerate in peaceful communion with yourself, through dance, journey and the creative. Through collage we divine our journey over the winter months till we meet again at the Spring Equinox.

She is excited to share the 5rhythms Wave map, supporting people to return again and again to their bodies, to explore and express their unique dance and to discover the freedom and aliveness that comes when we surrender our minds to our feet, to the dance.
