SACRED JOURNEYS

KIVA: On going session 6:00 - 7:30pm Thursday nights. Kiva means, "sacred dwelling". This is the traditional Thursday night open circle that has evolved over many years. This is a unique experience which interweaves many traditions from Native American, to Taoist, to Christian Contemplative. A true pan-cultural circle which provides an excellent introduction to the kind of soul work that is often part of a Vision Quest. $25 a group; 5-10 groups $20 a session; 11-24 groups $15 a session; 25-50 groups $10 a session. (These group session prices are paid in advance and must be used within the year that they are purchased.) If you are a guest of an ongoing member your first evening is free. If you have not attended before you are required to attend the introductory session held 5:30 - 6:00pm every Thursday. Check back for special Kivas throughout the year. Call, write or e-mail for details.
