Summer offers fullness and ripening.Autumn offers harvest, fire, and release.Late fall offers grief and transformation.Winter offers stillness and gestation. In each gathering, we will gently ask:What is this season teaching?How is it reflected in my own life?What invitation is unfolding here? Through guided reflection, contemplative and embodied practices, facilitated conversation, and creative integration, participants will deepen their capacity for spiritual discernment and learn to live more closely aligned with cyclical rhythm. You may attend one session or many. Each gathering stands on its own while contributing to a wider arc of seasonal listening.
