Dreaming Anew Prayer Ceremony

Calling Forth the Power of Our Deepest Intention for a Planetary New Living

Dreaming Anew Prayer Ceremony is a re-visioning of the shamanic ceremonial performance that explores the ceremonial state of consciousness with the application of the archaic technology of ecstasy. Through the expression of voice, ritual movement and visionary prayer, Shamanic Sound Ceremonialist, Akasa will draw from her shamanic sound initiation experience at the ancient oracle of Delphi in Greece and from inspiration presented by the ceremonial shamans from many traditions. Dreaming Anew ceremony resonates with cultural historian Thomas Berry's vision that explores the integration of the four wisdom traditions: wisdom of the indigenous people, wisdom of women, wisdom of classical civilizations and wisdom of science. You are invited to participate, evoke the Sacred Presence and co-create a new cosmological and planetary orientation which connects us to the pure essence of our Self, to the Earth, and to the Cosmos. Our deepest intentions, our individual and collective vision for a planetary new living will be called forth, re-claimed and empowered through this participatory opening ceremony.

 

Akasa is a Shamanic Sound ceremonialist who received her shamanic sound initiation at the Oracle of Delphi that guided her to her sacred destiny. She has presented her work internationally, including several appearances at The International Conference of the Study of Shamanism and Alternate Modes of Healing, The Embodiment and Empowerment conference by Oxford University, The Interdisciplinary conference by S.F. State University, and the coming Society for Shamanic Practitioners Annual conference. "Akasa's work contains the multiple modes of mind, heart, soul ,sound, body and spirit. She is really one of the new shamanic ceremonialists of this age of transformation." Brian Swimme, Ph.d., mathematic cosmologist.
