Equinox and Solstice celebrations at CoSM honor polarities and the alignment of the earth with the sun, crests and troughs in the wave of time -- the longest and shortest days and nights of the year and the two days of balance and equivalence. When we notice the passing of the days, the months, the years, we contemplate impermanence, raising our awareness to the preciousness of life in the here and now.
At CoSM, Celestial Celebrations begin with spoken wisdom on a worthy topic. After the talk and discussion, the audience breaks. Then, look forward to some of the best electronic music, down tempo music, ecstatic dance, a fire circle, and fire spinning. Meet Alex and Allyson and enjoy live painting from a showcase of visionary artists.
Acrobats, belly dancers, projections on Entheon, tarot readers, palmists, face painters, group sand mandalas have all been part of the rich tapestry, the transformative tableau of uplifting offerings at CoSM Celestial Celebrations.
Entheon, the Grey House, and the Mushroom Cafe will be open.
