Dreaming into the New Year
A Full Moon Cacao Circle,
Shamanic Journey, & Sound Bath
Saturday January 3, 2026
On the night of the first full moon of the New Year, we gather to cross this threshold together. The January moon shines as a beacon of clarity and awakening, illuminating what is ready to unfold, and offering us the perfect moment to release, realign, and call forward the next chapter of our becoming.
We begin by gathering in Circle, sharing Sacred Cacao, a warm and ancient heart-opening plant ally that invites presence, connection, and gentle expansion. With each sip, we soften into ourselves, letting the light of the full moon and the medicine of cacao draw forth what is quietly emerging within us.
From there, you'll be guided into a shamanic journey. This is a deep inner exploration carried on the rhythm of drum and breath. During this journey you'll be invited to meet your inner wisdom, receive messages for the path ahead, and touch the subtle threads of what is ready to be born in this new lunar cycle and new year.
We will close by the evening with a restorative sound bath, lovingly guided by Maria Brannon of Iridescent Knowing, where crystal bowls, chimes, and healing frequencies wash through the body. This helps release the residue of the past cycle, balance the emotional tides stirred by the full moon, and harmonize your energy with the year ahead.
This gathering is a luminous doorway, a portal, a place to honor what you are shedding, gently dream into what is becoming, and welcome the New Year with intention, clarity, and a nourished spirit under the radiance of the full moon.
we hope you'll join us.

Life happens and occasionally attendees find themselves needing to cancel. While I will make every attempt to fill your space, my retreats have moving parts that require advance investment from me such as the purchase of food or deposits on space. Due to these things I have adopted the following policy for clarity on cancellations. All events are fully refundable up to 30 days in advance. Any cancellations under 30 days prior to the event are eligible for a credit toward another Gaia Sisterhood event. Cancellations within 7 days prior to any event forfeit all payments.
