The evening will commence with a heart-opening Cacao Ceremony led by Shamanic Priestess Genevieve Ayala of An Emerald Earth with the highest quality of cacao sourced directly from Guatemala. Genevieve & Taragápe will share medicine songs to bring in the spirit of Cacao and prepare us to receive the magic of Little Whale.

We then will take a candlelit journey guided by the sonic medicine of Little Whale. Relax and receive in your own unique way--eyes closed in deep reflection, singing along in connection, or gentle movement / dancing.

To seal in this experience, Taragápe will nourish us with an integrative sound journey, curating a live arc of diverse soundscapes utilizing instruments such as handpans, sound bowls, native flutes, kalimba, medicine drum, charango, guitar, voice, and chimes.

We will return to our bodies and the space with light nourishment of fruit and an opportunity to share a few words of essence from our experience.

**Please note that, aside from cacao, this is not a medicine ceremony. The StarHouse does not allow for entheogenic substances to be communed with or administered on premises. Please respect this by coming sober and with an open heart knowing that you'll receive the exact medicine you are needing. Thank you for honoring this.

Arrival Instructions:

3476 Sunshine Canyon Drive, Boulder, CO 80302

Important! Do NOT drive up Linden Ave, please make sure to follow Sunshine Canyon from Mapleton Ave. Linden will take you to a locked gate. GPS may take you this way, please double-check before driving.

The StarHouse driveway is 3.5 miles from 4th and Mapleton.

The unpaved driveway is on the right hand side and several addresses to include 3476 are highlighted in a green frame.

Please arrive 15 minutes early at 6:15, as you will need to park in the upper lot which is a 5 minute walk to the StarHouse, and there is always time needed to settle into the space before we begin at 6:30.

From the upper lot, follow the path that begins with the three wooden pillars all the way down. You can also choose to walk the road the entire way down. As you are facing the valley overlooking Boulder, walk to the left, make your first right down the road (small signs point the way) and eventually make your first left onto the road that leads to the StarHouse (with sign). If it is very snowy or icy, it may be easier to walk the road the entire way. Please wear winter attire if it has recently snowed.

Feel free to bring anything you would need to be comfortable for the sound journey. The StarHouse has plenty of backjacks, yoga mats, blankets, and pillows--though if we approach capacity, if will be helpful to bring your own.

Please bring your own mug for Cacao! (There will be compostable cups available)
