Earthkeeper Ceremony in Appreciation of Mother Earth and the Ancestors
Posted by Tracy or Dave Younce under Earth News , Announcements , CeremonySo many of you have asked to join us in our family earthkeeper ceremonies so Dave, Tracy and Janisse invite you to join us as we continue down the ceremonial trail in Appreciation of Mother Earth and the Ancestors who ride the winds.
We dance in balance of those who dwell in the Within…beyond the illusion…home of “All That Is”, purple, seven…and place of inner reflection where the sacred hoop is made whole, and you are shown the medicine that allows you to know your place in the Sacred Hoop.
