Water Initiation

Sacred Journey in these Crystal River Ranges

We are called to land for initiation. We are called to immerse ourselves in Nature. It is She who is the ground of self realisation, free from politics implicit in human institutions, ripe for our Mission of Love.

Globally we are in the Fire of Initiation … the Crazy Wisdom Path, the Vision Quest, Expressive Therapies, Shamanic Rituals, Plant Medicines, Talking Circles … successfully, collectively we have set our Souls alight. Now we are diving into the waters of Pluto in Aquarius …

Water Initiation is like being underwater. It washes us clean of consensual culture so we arrive at a place of authentic psychospiritual flow.

Nature is the Mystery School – Natural mind in natural time, free us from a collective neurosis. Wholeness River Retreat is a container where imagination, inspiration and intuition are set free.

Time stretches into eternity and we can dwell in the heart.

Springs, rivers and waterfalls of this sanctuary wash us clean and enliven us simultaneously. We move from burning in the fire to swimming in the water. Let go of the shore and flow into the evolving current of humanity.

Let us share support, love and nurture each other, trading wisdom on the Way.

How did I get here? A ritual on a rock in midst of river on Pirongia … Evoking a memory of this very land … In perfect timing with my prayers. So grateful to be here in grounded creativity … at last!

If you feel the call – please come. If only for the weekend … it’s time to be free♥️

“Light and warmth determine the quality of [the etheric body’s] growth forces and it derives its dynamic potential in the body from the element of water (Huber, 2003). The etheric body can be linked to the sacral chakra, Swadhisthana, which, like water, symbolizes fluidity and nurturing.” https://tobiasart.org/2015/10/07/the-anthroposophical-perspective-on-the-structure-and-functioning-of-the-human-being/

“It is called the water trial because just like a diver suspended in water deep in a tank, nothing from the outside world motivates her to move. She must, based on what she observes around her, learn to act based on inner instinct.” https://www.reddit.com/r/occult/comments/la88jq/the_trials_of_initiation_part_2_of_4_the_water/
