SPRING EQUINOX: ALBAN EILIR WATER CEREMONY IN PENTICTON

The Spring Equinox water ceremony was amazing. The day started out grey and rainy...and then cleared, with the most gorgeous pristinely calm lake to invite us in.

During our group journey merging with Water, I felt the tremendous movement and flow, as though the water was this tremendous current - though the lake was perfectly calm in this reality....hmmmm....

Enjoy the pix, courtesy of Michelle Parry; with the exception of the last one, taken by Gerald Thomas.

The next UNDA project water ceremony will be on Sunday, May 1  in Naramata at Manitou Park.
Anyone is welcome. Please join in at 5:30pm. Bring a gift of tobacco, sage, sweetgrass, or cedar to give to the Spirit of Water.

Big Love,

SPRING EQUINOX: ALBAN EILIR WATER CEREMONY IN PENTICTON

Namaste, All

I will be at 3 Mile Beach (just off the Naramata Bench road - about 10 minutes from downtown Penticton by car) doing a Spring Equinox water blessing ceremony. Everyone, regardless of age is welcome, it is free for all to experience.

**IF YOU ARE NOT NEAR PENTICTON, you can join us WHEREVER you are.
...On March 21, grab your drum or rattle, go to your nearest water source (creek, brook, river, lake, ocean etc) and play your drum for 15 minutes (or longer). Please email me at DOSA@dancingotter.ca for protocol for water ceremony.**

Details:
When - Monday, March 21; 5:30pm
Where- 3 Mile Beach on Okanagan Lake (just outside Penticton, accessed from the Naramata Bench Road)
Please bring:

* your drum or rattle (if you have one)
* a gift of sage or tobacco to bring to scatter in the water
* a camera (if you would like to take pics)
* a towel for drying your feet. ***You do not have to go into the water, but I will be wading in, calf deep while I play my drum. Anyone is welcome to wade in as well, or to participate from the beach.

If you have any questions, please feel free to email me - DOSA@dancingotter.ca
