Medicinal Mantras: A Sonic Journey via Astrology and Voice

June 30th 2020

10 AM LA, 12 PM CHICAGO, 1 PM NYC, 6 PM LDN

An online event taking place during the Sun-Mercury Conjunction in Cancer the domicile of the Moon, an important moment in Mercury's retrograde, we will turn our attention to connection between the emotive, the expressed, the remembered, and our participation in cosmic intelligence.

In particular, we are re-engaging our total body memory through the power of voice, to release and reorganise, to clear and cleanse, our the emotional field. We turn to the wisdom contained within the harmonies of music and astrology, both western and eastern, to re-member our innate connection to the cosmos. We turn to the divine vehicles of the voice and vibration to lead the way.

Your hosts:
