Céilí
The word Céilí means a friendly visit, a social gathering, or a dance in Irish Gaelic. It represents a coming together in celebration of friendship, community and life.
Here, you will enter a moonlit realm where ancient tales come alive and wisdom flows through your body. In this virtual gathering, you will be transported to the heart of the Irish imagination as a portal for inner-work.
Full Moon Journey
‘I am a listener in woods
I am a gazer at stars
I am silent in the wilderness
I am the brother of wolves…’
King Cormac MacAirt
In this 90-minute immersion, you will experience:
Mythic Storytelling: Explore the tale of the ‘Cup of Sovereignty’, a retelling of the life of a true king, Cormac MacAirt, and of his sacred union with the Sovereignty Goddess, Medb of Tara, symbolising the partnership of the divine masculine and feminine in Celtic mythology.
Embodied Wisdom: Let the story’s symbols and images flow through you in a guided movement practice to sense into what Cormac and Medb’s story might mean for your life at this time.
What You will Need:
A candle
A journal and pen
Comforts like a warm brew or a blanket, whatever you need to enter the realm of story
A quiet, safe space where you feel comfortable to move with your eyes closed
A yoga mat, rug or blanket to support your knees as you move, along with comfy clothes that allow a full range of movement
An eye mask (optional) for those who prefer to move with covered eyes
Good sound equipment to hear the narration and music clearly
90-minutes of dedicated time to tend to your inner-landscape
