Wed
Flower Moon Self-Care Workshop @ Sou'wester Lodge
May 10 @ 6:30 pm – 10:00 pm

Walk the beauty way. Come together to share in a healing full moon circle of the Full Flower Moon in Scorpio. Bring a flower or stone as an offering for the earth.  Our Cosmic Mother will hold us in her living flower mandala as we come together in ceremony – as Women, as Sisters, as Daughters, as Mothers, as Grandmothers. Join us for the Flower Moon Self-Care Workshop, an energetic healing for your sacred temple within. This worship honors our ancestors, the feminine lineage that is at our root, and it honors the blossoms we have birthed, our little ones, the carriers of the light.
This ceremony is an individual healing and celebration of your feminine essence. It is a liberation from the past – supported with the healing smoke of herbs, flower blossoms, fire, sacred waters and loving community. I will be sharing my wisdom from my teachers Pixie Lighthorse on creating and honoring sacred space and Tami Kent Author of the Wild Feminine, Wild Creative, and Mothering From Your Center. Thank you to these women of great strength and vision for supporting us in true wellbeing. Following the ceremony, we will discuss how to nurture the rite during our moon cycle. We will also explore our inner garden through a guided shamanic meditation and the art of creating your own lunar eclipsed flower essence and clay/sauna purification ritual. We will close with a sacred journey, opening the energy center at our throat which increases the energy flow through our womb center.
Workshop Fee $50 (Includes flower essence supplies, booklet, venue and sauna fees)
This ceremony is open to all women, from the age of 16+. Come and bring your beloveds!
*Please bring: blanket + a flower(s) for our flower mandala
Circle will be held inside and group flower mandala will be outside. Please be mindful of the weather and bring blankets or mats if you wish.

Born in the American South, Louis Ledford has carved out a career composing and performing literate Americana roots music. He has produced three solo recordings in association with Waterbug Records, a relationship which began in 2005 when Ledford met label owner Andrew Calhoun at the legendary Texas Kerrvile Folk Festival. Louis has collaborated with folk diva Anais Mitchell on several projects including his singing the role of Hades for a touring production of her rock opera Hadestown. Mitchell recorded his song “When You Fall” for her collaborative album Country EP with Rachel Ries released by Ani Difranco’s Righteous Babe Records.

Ledford’s attention to lyrical detail is simply stunning. He makes the most of everyday circumstance, while never making the mundane feel normal. – 9X Music Magazine.

Louis Ledford is a great songwriter; witty, insightful and observant regarding the oddities of human behavior. – J. Kelly, Creative Loafing, Atlanta.

Louis Ledford achieves what Woody Guthrie was so good at–making an instant connection with the listener – Americana UK.

Lili St Anne plus Indira Valey
May 27 @ 8:00 pm

Lili St Anne is an experimental trip-folk-hop band based in Portland Oregon. With lyric melodies and unexpected syncopation, the intimate songwriting and soulfully enticing vocals envelope you in an ethereal world permeated by strains of neo-soul, 1940s jazz, appalachian folk, and human howls. The songs live in a curious juxtaposition of whimsy and thoughtfulness, creating an intimate life soundtrack that ponders themes of love and loss from a distinctly female perspective. These songs, in collaboration with funk and hip-hop drummer Jason Miller, make Lili St Anne an uncommon genre-bending experience. They are in the midst of releasing their first single together, “Wolves”, and will be touring the West Coast in August 2017.

Indira Valey (Portland, OR) is an avant garde multidisciplinary performer and a second generation Latinx Spanish speaker. Her ancient-sounding, resonant voice is a force of nature, and she utilizes looping technology, effects pedals, and a unique palette of instruments (including flugelhorn, timpani, kalimba, electric guitar) to create mesmerizing and memorable live performances that are ever-changing due to her spontaneous improvisational magic. Her debut album Recordar is a bilingual collection of oceanically soothing, powerfully healing songs about memory and finding your own inner power. In Spanish, “recordar” means both “to remember” and “to pass back through the heart”.
