Listening To Earth: The Fertile Soil of Uncertainty

July 11-12, 2020

Spirit Hollow, N. Bennington, VT

Be earth now, and evensong.
Be the ground lying under that sky.
Be modest now, like a thing
ripened until it is real

--Rainer Maria Rilke

On the wind, in the songs of birds, in the pulse of the trees and the bubbling of the waters, Earth speaks to us in countless voices. Through all our different windows of knowing, we can attune to the trembling of a tiny wild flower or the croak of a raven, the shimmer of a white quartz boulder, or the wellspring of tears that arises from deep underground. These and so many others entice us into conversation, into relationship.

Join Tracey Forest & Dave Muska for this 2-day course to enliven our connection and communication with the Earth.

Throughout the weekend we will participate in the art of tracking on the land and tracking our own mythos, stargazing and befriending the dark, fire making and tending our own inner fires and facilitated council. There will be plenty of solo time on the land to reflect and release, listen and receive.
