June 24th- Summer Celebration/ Despacho Ceremony with Polly Triplat
For peoples who live in close connection with the Earth, the despacho is a communication to those forces of Nature they respect and revere. Sometimes these ceremonies are performed to communicate a specific need: a healing; assistance in a birth; maybe the birth of a new structure, the success of a season’s crop. Very often a despacho is made for right relationship – among individuals, communities, families, or between man and Nature. We identify what we want our lives, and the life of our community, to be about. We communicate that to the cosmos. In that process we are connecting, and aligning, with Nature’s purpose.
Polly Triplat is a Visionary Craniosacral and Massage Therapist, Open Floor Conscious Dance teacher and Wilderness Guide. She is a true Earth Spirit who is dedicated to facilitating wellness, conscious community and nature connection.
