Event Description

To many indigenous cultures all of creation is a song, including ourselves, and we each have a unique creation story – our guide of how we came to be and the map of our ancestral lands. It is through this knowing and honouring our own song of creation that we find our way back home to our place of true belonging.

Gather in sacred circle with the wonderful Vesna Vavladellis once again on a journey to reconnect with our creation song and deepen the relationship with the ancestors through indigenous practices of storytelling, breath, meditation, sound and inner reflection, led by the potent heart-opening medicine of Hawai’ian Ceremonial Cacao.

Also known as “the food of the Gods”, in its purest form Cacao is an ancient medicine that opens the heart and offers access to the rich wisdom that resides within the uncharted landscape of our inner world. Leading us on a journey of self-discovery, evolution and change, it acts as a gentle yet powerful catalyst for rewriting the narratives that have held us back from showing up as our true, authentic selves.

Guided with grace, pristine spiritual integrity and permission from Marita One Who Catches Lightning & Keeper of the Thunder Stone, this ceremonial Circle is an invitation to journey back to Self. Sitting with the energy of cacao and welcoming the ancestors to walk alongside us, we open a space of deep connection, reverence and clarity that offers the opportunity to explore, heal and come into sacred union with our body-mind-essence, universal consciousness and the fullness of all that we innately are.

Cuatro Manos y Cinco Volcanes Hawaiian Cacao

Ceremonial Cacao has played a central role in the traditions and ritual practices of the Olmecs, Mayans and the Aztecs for well over 4000 years, with Hawai’ian Cacao being one of the rarest and most expensive cacaos in the world.

For this Circle we will be drinking Kūpuna Kalo, a special ancestors blend of cacao from the ancient, sacred and native Kalo plant, and an integral part of Hawai’ian culture and history. Kalo holds the energy of creation and is a grounding and supportive alliance for ancestral healing work and the energy of our Muladhara, Swadhisthana and Manipura Chakras.

Cuatro Manos y Cinco Volcanes Cacao is grown and produced in the Hawaiian way of “E hele me ka pu’olo”, the way of abundant flow honouring creator and universe by always offering back – lovingly prepared from tree to disk through ceremony and prayer with zero slave or child labour, proceeds are donated back to support reparations of the land and community in Hawaii as well as the indigenous elders and wisdom carriers of this medicine.

Meet Vesna

Vesna is a mother, scientist, sound alchemist, Cuatro Manos y Cinco Volcanes Cacao Facilitator and student at the Path of IX. She creates nurturing and supportive environments that allow us to meet ourselves wherever we are on our journey, and venture beyond the cognitive limitations of the mind supported by Hawai’ian cacao, fern medicine, sound, somatic movement, dreaming and meditation to access inspired realms of purest clarity, connection and insight.

Vesna walks in deep relationship alongside her teachers, ancestors and the rich traditions of her lineage to inspire and empower others in recognising the innate wisdom they carry and realising their own true potential.
