Across three days, May 27th, 28th, 29th, we gathered virtually.
We rejoiced in the intimate company of another, honour and celebrate the sacredness of life that flows through us.
We sensed into the unseen and invisible and reckon with the Truth, holding the discomfort and embracing our longing for humanity.
We reawakened to the whispers of our planet and our ancestors, embracing our inner power and embodying the force of
Love and Justice.
