RESIDENCY/WORKSHOP
Deep dive into practical tools for accesing the energetic portals and related histories at the temple ruin sites of Segesta and Selinunte. We access these portals to shift our personal and collective realities with the guidance of the current and historical energies present at these sites. You will connect with and deepen your existing connections with helping spirits. These tools can be used lifelong - applied to your daily life, healing, larger life goals, and transformation for the collective.
We will spend two hours per day immersed in ritual and meditation lead by Andrea at the villa. Ritual will also take place during visits to ruins and places in nature such as Lo Zingaro Nature Reserve. Shamanic drum journeying will be the basis of our focused work. Many other practices and rituals for directly connecting with and accessing energy, intention setting, and calling in spirits, stemming from Andrea’s European cultural roots.
We engaege with the balance of feminine and masculine energies in the world. We will have the opportunity to journey on site, after hours, as dusk turns to night, under the stars, with your spirit helpers, the ancestors, and spirit guardians of the site.
Regina Hundemer, historical guide, will join us as we walk the sites, to add context for our understanding of the energies we are experiencing. and for clarity in crafting of intentions.
We stay in a beautiful villa in Lo Zingaro Nature Reserve, near the town of Scopello. There will be time for ritual each day at the villa, in preparaion of our visits to the sites and our time in nature. Swimming at pristine, clear, turquoise beaches and hiking will be plentiful - and optional.
There will be ample time for you to work on your own projects, take hikes, swim etc. Each participant receives their own room and has access to the spacious indoor common living spaces, as well as outdoor work spaces.
Breakfasts and one dinner at the house are provided.
This will be a time for you to connect deeply with yourself in this beautiful, alive place in nature. Many of the group activities are optional, everyone is free to participate or to take time for yourself to do your own practices, work, relax, play, and explore on their own. All of the elements are available to tap into, to support and guide our work as a group and individually. There will be opportunities for play and exploring historical towns and sites with like minded people.
