Easter Island is unique because it
is one place on earth where the Lemurian energy can
be accessed in a pure and powerful way. Being in such
a remote place with access to ancient culture, surrounded
by seemingly endless sea with vast sky is a most magical
experience. As we recognize and honor the sacred within
ourselves on this magical island, we open to unity in
a profound way. The planet, herself, is about to go
through a mystical experience and we have the privilege
of being present as witness.
Itinerary:
November 4: Group
meets in Miami for orientation and then takes an overnight
flight to Chile.
November 5:
After a change of planes in Santiago we arrive this
evening at Easter Island, the place of a most remarkable
ancient culture. Each Day we will take time for a sharing
circle.
November 6:
In the morning we head for the water to immerse ourselves
in the energy of Easter Island. This will provide us
with an opportunity to experience the feeling of the
island and give our bodies the chance to relax. As we
begin to open ourselves to these powerful energies,
we will have an opportunity, in a sharing circle, to
set our intention. We will also be exposing ourselves
to the sun in close proximity to the equator, so please
be aware of the intensity of the experience at a physical
level. Lunch will be picnic style and then we proceed
with the half day tour planned for the afternoon. Our
Rapa Nui tour guide will lead us to the Temple of Tahai
, Rano Kao-the largest volcano crater, and the place
of the Birdman Cult ceremony. At most of these sacred
sites and temples large stone Moai (statues) were erected
by the Rapa Nui people. The Moai were believed to hold
the ‘spirits’. At appropriate sites, Sue and
Leilani will help us tune into the messages that these
still active Moai have for each of us.
November 7:
Today is an early start to fit in a full-day tour beginning
with a shopping opportunity at an artisan’s market.
We then make our way, along the coast, towards the North
of the island. We will be visiting the temples of Viahu,
Akahanga, Tongariki, Te pito Kura, Nau Nau, the quarry
of Rano Raraku, and finally the beautiful beach of Anakena.
November 8:
This day witnesses the beginning of the Harmonic Concordance
and we will have some flexibility. Our theme of gratitude
will start with solar energy and, in honor of the full
moon, we will close the day with lunar energy. We will
work toward a ceremony including sharing and meditation,
opening us to the possibility of unity consciousness.
The veil is lifting, bringing us into a space where
we may experience greater wholeness.
November 9:
We will celebrate our expansion into this new opportunity,
recognizing that we have moved into a new time. In the
afternoon we have free time and a sharing circle during
the evening.
November 10:
In the morning we will enjoy free time to say good-bye
to Easter Island. We will then catch a mid-day flight
to the Chilean mainland which will put us in southern
Chile at Temuco for supper. Temuco is the largest town
near the Hot Springs and has a wonderful market for
ponchos, rugs and musical instruments made by the local
indigenous people. We will enjoy our short time in this
center of Chilean culture.
November 11-14:
We will be spending these four days at the Termas de
Panqui, Hot Springs Retreat Center. This Hot Springs
was in use by native people long before the Spanish
arrived. Today it has been developed into a healing
and retreat center. Classes are offered in Watsu and
other healing modalities. The Center is located high
in the Andes, near the border with Argentina. The trees
in this part of Chile are quite incredible. There are
several hikes to lakes and rivers available to us during
our stay. We will do ceremony with some of the indigenous
Mapuche people. At the Hot Springs there are three large
pools of natural hot water and mud baths. The vegetarian
food is quite extraordinary. Sitting in one of the hot
pools at night under the stars is one of the most magical
experiences you’ll find. Participants will have
a choice of staying in the recently built lodge or in
platform tipi’s. Termas de Panqui is remote, but
all those who have been there can’t wait to go
back. At the Hot Springs we will do a ceremony focused
on the continuing energy of the Harmonic Concordance.
November 15:
We return to Temuco to catch our afternoon flight to
Santiago and then on to Miami.
November 16:
We have an early morning arrival in Miami. By 7:30 am
we will have finished with immigration procedures and
we will be ready for our individual homebound flights.
For those returning to the U.K. you may want to rest
overnight in Miami before continuing on. We can help
with hotel reservations.
