Event description

As the veil between the worlds grows thin, join shamanic and wellness practitioner Shaney Barton to honour the festival of Samhain and the spirits of the ancestors in a special Samhain shamanic circle with ritual, grounding meditation and guided shamanic journey. Samhain marks the close of the harvest season, celebrating the bounty of the Earth with thanks as well as preparations for the onset of the darker half of the year.

Honouring the ancestors and the earth, we will undertake shamanic journey giving thanks for the path that ancestors have trodden before us, the gifts and talents that they have developed within our lineage, and asking that we may connect with their wisdom.

Bring an offering of the season for the altar – something natural, beautiful/harvest-related, crystal, skull or a picture of a relative that you wish to honour – plus the usual blanket, journal and optional eye covering.

  • Cushions are provided for seating on the floor for these events, but chairs are available if preferred.
  • Session runs for 105 minutes (approx)
  • Please arrive 5-10 minutes early to take your place. Doors will be closed when the event starts.
