European Honeybee Shamanism, also known as the Path of Pollen, is an ancient and ever changing gyno-centric tradition that exalts the sweet honeybee as a sacred glyph, teacher and guide. Through this introductory exploration of some of the secret practices held by this arcane tradition, we follow the wisdom of the bee in winged flight to move between worlds. In these ways, we come to know both the freedom and ecstacy resulting from deep communion with the unseen world around us, only to return to the sweet inner knowings discoverable in the dark depths of the Divine nektary within. We take pause as we move between this ingress and egress to embody the gnosis that flows forth as a result of the opening of this liminal doorway. (learn more, click image or title)

Can we reasonably ask one another to sacrifice what little wealth and security we have, in order to give to those who have less, or should we be finding ways to collectively share and resource one another outside of the demands of the competitive market? How can we create a world not based on money? What is the meaning of reciprocity in an age of radical inequality? This weekend workshop can be attended also as a retreat (click for info)
