- Magic for clearing blockages of the heart, affirmations & empowerment, Opening heart chakra with singing bowls & gentle chimes, and spell-work for personal Romance & Abundance.
Cacao effects.-------
Cacao drinking is an old tribal practice that works gently in heart-centre and energy openings in people. It takes time to work. It's effects are subtle, and can include a good feeling of wellness, connection, love, gratitude, mindfullness, positivity. So starting with groundedness, stillness, and balance is importrant in order to feel its effects.
We began Cacao circles in Hampstead Heath, in June 2021, with Freya Witch leading them . A new cycle began with our Earth Hour Cacao ritual in March 2025.
Our aim is to hold these in woodland, so as to get closer to the natural setting similar to real tribal cacao rituals.
- *We are using Organic, Vegan, Ceremonial grade Cacao, grown by the Ashaninka Tribe in Peru.
