Reimagining Death
Join us on this journey of reimagining Death.
"Death is the only friend who has been by my side the whole time- a true witness to my life."
In many earth-based cultures around the world, we see that death is a living entity or spirit that guides us- it has an essence. In some cases, like the Mexica-Azteca, there is no word for death; rather, we transcend and go back to the fountain of life. This voyage to the other side can be seen from the Incas to the Celtics to the Mayans. Our earthly ancestors have gifted us a blueprint for death and how we can relate to it, so we don't have to suffer when it is time- however, and whenever that is.
Join us as the veil thins for us to access the unseen world on this journey to Reimagining Death. Our Platica consists of material sharing, a deep guided meditation, and community integration through art and sharing.
