Reimagining Death 5-week Community Study

Welcome to a transformative journey into the profound intricacies of life's greatest enigma: Death.

This is your personal invitation to embark on a journey that transcends cultural boundaries, inviting you to reimagine and rekindle your relationship with the concept of death.

Death is the biggest teacher of our life- a portal to the Great Mystery- a passage home. However it is our intimate relationship with death that informs how we truly live. In their spiritual context, life and death are mirrors.

It is with great humility that I offer this annual community cohort during this changing season where the veil thins and becomes transparent, enabling us to connect intimately with our beloved departed and the spirit of our Ancestors.

Our ancestors have woven a rich tapestry of wisdom across cultures and generations. From the Mexica-Azteca to Greeks, Celtics, and Mayans, we will immerse ourselves into their cosmovisiones to uncover death as a guiding force through transformation and renewal, embracing its inevitability with grace.

Reimagining Death is a five week community study. This is a mix between an academic, spiritual, and somatic ways of learning- something that is very unique to my own process. I tend to give form but also see the need for us to feel and sense- to create your own altars, to inspire to unearth your ancestry, to call upon them, to pray together.

With so much love and devotion, if you are feeling the call to relate in this way with community- our cohort begins November 3rd. From my beating heart to yours,

Mariana
