Description
Amid a time of magnified violence upon the Planet directed at our most vulnerable Human Brothers and Sisters and the Natural World, our More Than Human Family, we are honored to gather on this International Day of Peace, upon the eve of the Equinox, within a ceremony of wind and wings. The intention. An opening to balance. A remembrance of presence. A calling of peace. A grounding of purpose.
We will gather in the round, field set, West facing, wrapped in the magnificent golden sunset Light that illuminates SkyRise. From this space, Sarah will guide guests on a meditative journey, calling upon the power of the Wind for clearing, transformation and change. Calling upon the Winged Ones, the Birds, the messengers between the realms of Earth and Sky, who are moving amid their Fall migrations for the gift of highest wisdom and perspective they carry to show us the path forward.
Guest’s experience will be further enhanced with individual feather clearings, sacred smoke from medicinal plants grown upon the land, vocal toning and a sacred buffalo drum blessing. The ask, within this window of seasonal balance, equal parts dark, equal parts light, what can we hear from the deepest, wisest aspects of ourselves when we sit upon the land, within conscious community, listening, listening, listening.
We will end our time with an interactive installation allowing participants to symbolize their intentions for peace and balance- for Self, the Earth, all lives, to be carried upon the wind within the Valley. A grounding herbal elixir will be served to close.

We look forward to welcoming you into the circle! Please note:
* This offering is inclusive to individuals of all races, ethnicities, genders, orientations, inclinations and abilities, age 13 and above.
* The program will take place rain or shine, the totality of the offering moved into the Haymow Studio in case of inclement weather.
* This is an intimate, pre-ticketed group journey to allow for absolute connection and presence amongst practitioner and guests. As we are deeply aware of the present economic environment and the myriad of monetary realities faced by our diverse community, four openings are available for the program for individuals called to this work, but perhaps unable to accommodate the financial exchange asked at this time. Please reach out to Sarah directly for confidential consideration srigano@gmail.com.
* Given the meditative nature of this offering, we ask that all four-legged friends remain home in consideration of other guests. We are happy to reasonably accommodate assistance animals, but kindly request that prior notice of their presence is communicated to Sarah upon registration at srigano@gmail.com so we can welcome them accordingly.

ABOUT SKYRISE FARM
SkyRise Farm is located amid the storied Hudson Valley, on close to 50 bucolic acres, along the Northeast corner of Dutchess County, in Millerton, NY.
Held by the rise of the Berkshires and Taconic Mountains to the East, with unparalleled views of Stissing Mountain and the Catskills visible to the West, the property is a mix of varied ecosystems and terrain, all meticulously cared for and part of ongoing regenerative efforts based in sustainable principles and rewilding initiatives under the stewardship of Vibrational Designer Sarah Rigano of FORM + LIGHT.
Inspired by the seasons and a deep connection to, and appreciation of, the subtle healing frequencies of the natural world, the intention of the Farm is to create conversations steeped in community and creativity, openings for greater physical, mental, emotional and spiritual well-being, through immersive experiences inspired by Earth-based wisdom traditions that honor the Divine interconnection of all things- celestial and terrestrial, seen and unseen.
