Holding the Dark, Calling the Dawn: A Retreat
Into Deep Time
December 5-7
Begins with dinner at 6 pm on Friday and ends with Sunday lunch.
Cost: $225; includes lodging and all meals.
In the Christian calendar, the four weeks leading up to Christmas mark
the holy time of Advent. In the Jewish calendar the dark nights of winter
before Hanukkah prepare for the ancient Hebrew Festival of Lights. The
return of Sun’s light through this seasonal period in the northern
hemisphere touches on the deep psychic experiences of loss and recovery,
death and rebirth, longing and hope. Join us as we open these traditions
to “deep time” and the primary archetypal energies they
unlock for living into the uncertainties of the 21st century, and for
facing into the “holidays” with a commitment to reclaiming
their sacred meanings.
