Workshop 2: Winter Solstice Living Waters “Water holds memory.”
On the Winter Solstice, when the earth pauses in her deepest stillness, we gather to work with the living intelligence of water. In this session, we will explore how water can be imprinted with codes of healing through imagination, sound, and intention. Together we will craft waters for aura cleansing, protection, and renewal, and learn simple practices for banishing stagnant or negative energies.
Drawing on the groundbreaking research of Dr. Masaru Emoto and Veda Austin, we will look at how water is not only a carrier of memory but also a form of consciousness itself — responsive, alive, and communicative. Their work demonstrates how water can mirror our thoughts, emotions, and prayers, yet much of the water we encounter daily is chemically treated, stripped of vitality, and disconnected from the living earth. Through this workshop, we will remember water’s true nature, reconnecting it with the minerals of stones, crystals, and natural elements.

Workshop III – Hydrosols of the 13th Moon: New Year Intentions
As the lunar year comes to a close with the 13th Moon, we gather to set intentions for the year ahead by working with the subtle intelligence of hydrosols — plant distillations that hold both the fragrance and energetic imprint of nature.
In this session, you will explore how water reflects our deepest emotions, ancestral connections, and energetic vitality, and how Eastern medicine links water to the kidneys, adrenals, bladder, and pelvis — the foundation of resilience and balance. Together, we will craft aromatic sprays and hydrosols designed to:
Support emotional and physical health
Magnetize angelic presence and protection
Open veils for dreamwork, astral travel, and spiritual communication
Carry your New Year intentions as a living, breathing medicine
Aligned with the turning of the year, this workshop is both a creative practice and a renewal ritual, inviting you to anchor your visions for 2026 in water, plant, and intention. You will leave with hydrosols crafted by your own hands, ready to use as tools for healing, clarity, and manifestation

🌸 Our Pricing Philosophy: Rooted in Reciprocity & the Divine Feminine
We believe that healing, wisdom, and transformation are the birthright of all — not privileges reserved for a few. In alignment with the Divine Feminine and the rising conscious economy, our pricing model honors both the true value of our offerings and the diverse circumstances of our community.
We publish the full price of each class or program to reflect the value, energy, and devotion invested in its creation. This anchors a clear sense of worth.
Yet in the spirit of trust, generosity, and interdependence, we also offer:
🌿 Sliding scale options for those in need
🌱 A “pay what you can or feel it’s worth” model, inviting you to tune into your intuition and capacity
🌺 The opportunity to sponsor another soul’s healing journey, if you feel called to give more
This is an economy of the heart — rooted in resonance, not rigidity.
May we all give and receive in right relationship.
May no one be turned away for lack of funds.
May we rise together in shared abundance.
