Lunar New Year Cacao + Somatic Dance Ceremony

This Lunar New Year, we gather in sisterhood to cross a threshold - a potent reset point where the collective is shedding old skins and choosing a new timeline. If you’ve been craving clarity, courage, and a place to feel your intentions (not just think them), this night is for you.

We’ll be honoring the Fire Horse energy—bold, liberated, forward-moving—through a blend of ritual, movement, and circle. And with 2026 holding “Year 1” numerology energy, this is the ultimate moment to plant fresh seeds: new habits, new identities, new boundaries, new devotion to what you actually want.

Not in isolation, rather in community. With accountability, warmth, and witness.

This is a guided, beginner-friendly evening that weaves together:

• Opening circle + grounding (arrive as you are)
• Ceremonial cacao to open the heart and connect inward
• Intuitive somatic dance journey to release what you’re done carrying and embody what you’re calling in
• Intention setting + “seed planting” ritual (Year 1 energy = beginnings, initiation, momentum)
• Embodiment practice for your 2026 goals (how your desires feel in the body, not just on a vision board)
• Women’s circle sharing for reflection, support, and sisterhood accountability

You’ll leave feeling lighter, clearer, and more connected to your body, your path, and the women walking beside you.

• A journal + pen (you’ll be guided through prompts and visualisation)
• Comfortable clothing to move in
• A small personal item for the altar (optional): a symbol of what you’re calling in (a crystal, photo, word, charm, etc.)

Ceremonial cacao, tea, water, vibes and a safe soulful container will be provided.

Everything deepens when it’s shared. Invite a friend, sister, or soul-sister-to-be—and let this be the night you begin together.

• You’re ready to stop “thinking your way” into a new year and start embodying it
• You want a soulful way to set intentions that actually stick
• You’ve been craving community, ritual, and a place to be witnessed
• You feel that something big is shifting and you want to meet it with presence and power
