This is a shamanic group healing ceremony around a bond fire. If you'd like to experience an astral healing by connecting with your Divine team, Mother Earth, the 4 elements, the 4 directions and your ancestors of the light, it would be wonderful to have you join us. :-) At 6pm, we will meet at the parking lot of the building at the Bond Lake Trail & Oak Ridges Trail at the South West corner of Bond Lake on the East side of Yonge Street, just North of Stouffville Road. We will then walk into the park together to the location where we will have the fire. Please bring a blanket (to sit on), a drum and/or rattle (for the songs) & a small piece of wood for the fire (infused with your healing intentions for yourself). And some snack food for afterwards. Plus, if you can, a log or two to feed the fire would be super welcome. Please note that 3 hours should be the maximum duration, but the duration varies. This event is P.W.Y.C. (pay what you can), suggested donation: $15-$20 :-) I look forward to seeing you there. Love and light, Susanna P.S.: Please text or call me via Facebook Messenger if you can't find the location: "Oh Susanna" with the big silver lion earrings, you can easily find me via the FB group "Alemannic Shaman".

Get to the venue between 6:30 and 7 PM. The evening will start off with a bit of an intro to each other. Most importantly, we would like to hear your ideas on the type of activities and events you'd like us to organise and the locations that may suit all of us. We can hang around and then head out for dinner if time permits. Please note that there is no entry fee for this event. Its just PYO (pay your own).
