Winter Solstice Celebration – Rewilding the Soul (Online)

Lama Willa Blythe Baker, Lama Liz Monson
December 21, 2024

7:00-8:30 pm ET

All are welcome to celebrate the Winter Solstice with us! If you are registered for the Rewilding the Soul series, you do not need to register separately for the Equinox and Solstice events.

What does it mean to be human in these times, when the sky, wind, air, rivers, oceans, soil, rains, trees, plants and animals seem to be asking us to remember? When our bodies are asking?

Join the ecodharma sangha of Natural Dharma Fellowship for an online Winter Solstice Celebration, as we celebrate the shortest day of the year. Our celebration will include reflections from the teachers, guided meditation, live music, poetry, ritual and celebration of the darkness and inner reflection that the season of winter embodies.

Participants are encouraged to come to this gathering ready to construct an “dark altar” as part of our online ritual practice. The wild altar might include plants, photos, stones, shells and other reminders of the transformative power of darkness. Also consider having a candle, fragrant plant (local to your area) and incense (or an essential oil with diffuser).

 


ZOOM LINK

The Zoom link will be sent three days before the event to all those registered by then. If you register after that date, you’ll receive the link shortly after submitting your registration. If you don’t see an email from Natural Dharma Registrar or Wonderwell Mountain Refuge, it may have mistakenly been sent to your spam folder. It may help if you put this address in your contacts: .

If you can’t find the Zoom link or need help logging in, please contact . That email address is monitored beginning 15 minutes before the session begins.


PROGRAM COST

It is Natural Dharma Fellowship’s aspiration that no one be turned away from our programs because they are unable to pay the full price. In order make our offerings affordable for all who wish to attend, we offer a three-level fee structure:

  • May All Beings Benefit! – supporting access for all and assisting with the care and maintenance of Wonderwell Mountain Refuge
  • A Middle Way – covering the base cost
  • Held in Sangha Loving-kindness – offering ease when financial resources are limiting

Our pricing options are based primarily on the length and type of an event and are intended to give you an idea of the costs involved. The amounts listed are suggestions. You may write in any amount that fits your financial situation. Any amount offered above the Middle Way level will be considered a tax-deductible donation and will be acknowledged as such in writing.
