Talking Circle: Initiation & Threshold Crossings

There are moments in life when we realize we cannot return to who we once were. Loss, illness, awakening, heartbreak, ceremony, birth, death, and profound insight can all become threshold crossings—experiences that ask us to step into a new relationship with ourselves and the world.

In many Indigenous traditions, rites of passage were held intentionally within community, offering guidance and meaning during times of transformation. In modern culture, many people move through these initiatory experiences alone, without language, support, or understanding for what is unfolding.

In this Talking Circle, we explore the nature of initiation—how challenge, transition, and non-ordinary states of consciousness can become catalysts for growth, insight, and becoming.

✨ In this circle, we’ll explore:

• Initiation as a sacred and psychological process
• Threshold moments that reshape identity and perspective
• The role of community during times of transformation
• Non-ordinary states as gateways to insight and change
• Life, death, and rebirth as recurring cycles of growth
• Becoming rather than returning to who we once were

This gathering invites reflection on the thresholds we have crossed—and the ones we may still be approaching—with humility, courage, and support from community.

Donation-based. All are welcome.Come sit with us at the threshold—where endings become beginnings, and transformation becomes part of the path. 🌒
