Ceremony

Most of us have been raised in environments devoid of ceremony. Outside of religious observance, holiday meals or social events like graduation, we don’t tend to be invited to reflect on deeper aspects of ourselves, our world or experiences beyond our day to day lives.

The Sweat Lodge

The Sweat Lodge is an alchemical tool that sits within Sacred Law and is in alignment with all of Creation. This enables us to heal ourselves, so we too can step into alignment and better embody the Sacred Humans we truly are.

The Lodge holds within it the perfect balance of the Everything. This includes all the Elements: water, earth, air, fire and void; and all the Worlds of Grandmother Earth: the plants, minerals, animals, humans and ancestor worlds.

The Lodge structure is created from saplings gathered with care and respect. They are fashioned into a dome shaped hut, covered by blankets, with a flap for a door. The Lodge symbolizes the Earth’s womb, introspection and the feminine. The door to the Lodge always faces the fire, which represents the spark of life – our connection to spirit and the masculine.

The Ceremonial Leader pours the water, guiding the Ceremony, while the Fire Keeper provides the heated rocks and caretakes over the people in the Lodge.

The people enter the Lodge in humility, asking for healing not only for themselves, but for All Our Relations, the 7 generations that have come before and the 7 generations that are yet to come. While inside the Lodge, participants create a space within themselves so they can ask for what they really need for their healing. They share prayers of healing for others and let go of all the things standing in their way so they can dream their lives anew.

Exiting the Lodge symbolizes a person’s rebirth into the world.
