They can be climbed and offer spectacular views across the Oder valley all the way to Poland. * **Teufelssee:** The dark forest lake has a magical atmosphere and is the perfect place for a picnic. To relax from climbing, jump in the lake or take a cold foot bath in the nearby stream. From the lake, a delightful loop leads to the edge of the forest and back through lofty heights. * **Thuringia View:** This hill offers a fantastic view into the open landscape, including the two ship lifts that you can see on the horizon.

**A ritual photoshoot, held in a group of women, witnessed and captured by photographer, artist and muse [Jaqueline Louan](https://www.jaquelinelouan.com/). Every attendee takes home 10-15 professional photos of themselves.** [Further info & tickets.](https://spnkd.com/solo-event-a-tantric-ritual-photoshoot-for-women-in-full-bloom/) — **Have you ever paused in front of a bouquet of flowers, allowing its abundance to fill you?** The diversity. The intricacy. No petal the same. Flowers blooming in every color. Have you ever felt the quiet erotic aliveness of a seed sprouting, reaching from the darkness into the light, ready to open to the sun? **Ready to be witnessed. To be seen by another.** In this ritual photoshoot, we enter the energy of blooming. Of softening open. Of allowing your petals to receive the warmth and richness of life. This is a living painting, your body and energy as the canvas. Your fullness. Your sweetness, your thorns, the untamed weeds of your vibrant core. So many of us long to be seen… yet when attention arrives, we contract. We hide. We close. In Full Bloom is an invitation to gently open again. Through carefully guided practices, you will be led deeper into your natural expression. We will explore the art of being seen; allowing what is present, perhaps even beginning to enjoy it. *Can you let yourself be witnessed exactly as you are? Can you lean into the version of yourself you long to embody?* **Because you are both: a Work in Progress and a Masterpiece.** By the end of this journey, you will feel more connected. More alive. More magnetic. A living work of art. You will hold photographs that remind you of your aliveness. — **What to expect** You will receive approximately 10–15 professionally edited images of yourself in your full bloom, captured by Jaqueline Louan. There will also be a selection of beautiful group images. Some may be shared online, with the option for you to remain anonymous by covering your face. Clear guidance will be given in those moments. Additional photography rights for commercial use are available upon request. Otherwise, all images are intended for private use (including sharing on your personal social media). We will co-create a lush, sensual setting with fruits, flowers, and textiles, an immersive, aesthetic space to support your unfolding. A contract outlining all guidelines and agreements will be shared with you in advance and signed on the day. Light snacks and drinks will be lovingly prepared for you. — **Dresscode & what to bring** **The dress code is colorful lingerie: an expression of your essence, like a flower in a wild, blooming meadow.** You are asked to bring a bouquet of flowers that resonates with your aliveness. Make yourself a gift. What draws you in? What awakens your senses? Which flowers call you into deeper presence with this moment? — **Your host: Jaqueline Louan** Jaqueline Louan is an artist for the human heart. She is a muse that sees the muse in you and wants to awaken your ever-flowing oceanic nature. Her creations are a fusion of ritual and photoshoot, with the intention to dive deep into the mysteries of existence and to elevate the love for our human form and flesh. She weaves threads of enchantment and knows how to spark that flame in your soul that is here to burn in devotional prayer. She weaves spaces of enchantment, igniting the quiet flame within you that longs to burn in devotion. Having held witnessing photoshoots across the world, Jaqueline has guided countless women into deeper connection with their own aliveness, expression, and truth.

After a lovely first Poetry in the Park gathering in Bürgerpark Pankow, we’re bringing the idea into a second round — this time with a photographic twist. Join us for a spring afternoon around Schloss Charlottenburg where photography and poetry meet. Bring a poem you love — or one you wrote — and we’ll begin by reading a few poems together. Then we’ll set out for a gentle 30 minute photo walk through the park, capturing details that catch our attention: blossoms, reflections, statues, hidden corners, fleeting scenes. Using the images we gather as inspiration, we’ll meet again on picnic blankets to write short poems from guided prompts and share them in an informal circle. No photography skills needed. No poetry experience required. Just curiosity, observation, and a bit of spring magic. Bring: * A poem to share (optional) * A journal + pen * Your phone or camera * A picnic blanket Duration: approx. 2 hours. This meetup is donation based. Your contribution helps keep this community alive and is highly appreciated.
