John will create an earth shrine and lead people in a ceremony to connect to their ancestors, nature and one another. This is a profound opportunity for people to steep deeper into their humanity (Ubuntu) and life path. John has been leading these Ubuntu ceremonies for over 12 years all over the world. People have experienced profound shifts and transformations affecting not just themselves but their entire families and communities.
LEARN THE 3 JEWELS OF INDIGENOUS MEDICINE
How to connect to your Ancestors and your humanity (Ubuntu)
Listen to your Heart-beat through trance dancing & Meditation
Work with your Dreams (night time journeys)
The Leopard is one of the most revered totem animals in Southern Africa. The reason is because it represents intuitive intelligence and nobility of spirit. The Leopard represents harmony between the spirit and mundane worlds.
Participants will learn how to connect to their Spirit and spirits through an intricate ceremony conducted in a circle around an earth altar or shrine. The ceremony is an interactive, dynamic process involving Trance dancing or ‘shaking medicine’, Dream work and a Plant medicine (non-hallucinogenic) cleansing ritual.
“In order to feel like the leopard, we need to move and dance like the leopard”. With ‘SHAKING MEDICINE,’ John will show participants how to energise their spine to awaken their intuition. This is a gentle dance open to all fitness levels. It is a wonderful way to awaken the heart and connect to the heart-beat, the first step in learning indigenous tracking.
NB: This Ceremony requires all participants to engage with their own process 100%. It requires the hearts of warriors, fearless individuals who are not afraid to face their own Shadows.
