Come to the Fire!

For 800,000 years, we have gathered around fires to rekindle our sacred connection to our own hearts, each other and the living world; to restore balance and wholeness, gather guidance, and cultivate warmth; and to speak and listen from the heart.

Fire can offer extraordinary gifts of transformation, healing, connection, wisdom and guidance, joy, laughter, release, inspiration and more. It is an ancient form of medicine for our people. We invite you to come to a Community Fire to discover if Fire can help you with your life.
