Event Lineup
🌿 Sacred Cacao Ceremony
We begin the evening with a cacao ceremony—a heart-opening ritual rooted in ancient traditions. Sacred cacao, a pure form of chocolate, is prepared as a warm drink and consumed to help foster inner clarity and connection with others. Guided by Macha plant medicine Woman for over 23 years, working with cacao ceremony for over 8 years ago with a indigenous Mexican Shamanic Woman leader in Bein Gathering,she then she has deep connection and working with it as a personal and professional practice and learning from many teachers who carry the medicine,
this ceremony sets the tone for the evening, grounding us in gratitude, intention, and a sense of community as we honour the transition from one year to the next.
(this is powerful medicine and unsuitable for certain conditions with the heart, please consult your professional or ask Macha Direct via email as there is ways to still connect with the medicine on the event .)
